You may want to get into your games on Steam but when asking for help you should follow what you are asked to do. Not only does it resolve your issue’s but it forces you to learn and understand also. Games can be played after the penalty! :wink:

eos-update

eos-update --help
eos-update is a package updater for EndeavourOS and Arch.

eos-update is implemented as a wrapper around commands pacman and optionally yay/paru.
Essentially runs commands 'pacman -Syu' and optionally 'yay -Sua' or 'paru -Sua'.

eos-update includes (by default) special help in the following situations:
- A dangling pacman db lock file (/var/lib/pacman/db.lck).
- Disk space availability for updates (with a configurable minimum space).
- Keyring package updating before others.
- Running the 'sync' command after update.

Optional help:
- Can clear package databases in case of contant problems with them.
- Can reset keyrings in case of constant problems with them.
- Updates AUR packages (with option --helper, see Usage below).
- Ad hoc check for Nvidia GPU driver vs. kernel updates (non-dkms only).

Usage: eos-update [options]
Options:
  --help, -h            This help.
  --nvidia              Check also nvidia driver vs. kernel updates. Useful only with the Nvidia GPU.
  --clear-databases     Clears package database files.
                        Use this only if package database issues constantly make system update fail.
  --keyrings-reset      Resets Arch and EndeavourOS keyrings.
                        Use this only if keyring issues constantly make system update fail.
  --no-keyring          Do not try to update keyrings first.
  --no-sync             Do not run 'sync' after update.
  --show-only-fixed     Show only packages that have already been fixed (runs: arch-audit -u) and exit.
  --show-upstream-news  Show the news page of the upstream site and exit.
  --helper              AUR helper name. Supported: yay, paru, pacman.
                        Default: pacman
                        Other AUR helpers supporting option -Sua like yay should work as well.
  --paru                Same as --helper=paru.
  --yay                 Same as --helper=yay.
  --aur                 Uses the AUR helper configured in /etc/eos-script-lib-yad.conf.
  --pacman              Same as --helper=pacman. Default. (Note: pacman does not support AUR directly).
  --min-free-bytes      Minimum amount of free space (in bytes) that the root partition should have
                        before updating. Otherwise a warning message will be displayed.
                        Default: 1000000000

Tip: create an alias in file ~/.bashrc for eos-update to have the options you need, for example:

     # Enable Nvidia update check, disable sync execution, use paru for AUR updates.
     alias eos-update='eos-update --nvidia --no-sync --paru'

Command

eos-update --help

gives slightly more up to date info.
For example, it has info about option --clear-databases which is useful in some troubleshooting cases.
