Please let me know if this isn’t in the right topic, I’m still a little new to actually posing in forums.
So a few months ago I had noticed that my updates have been quite small and very far in between, and I had figured that updates were just being slow, so I just continued as normal.
However, this all changed when I had started coming across a bug in Plasma, which has been fixed in a later version, which I don’t have installed. So I decided to look a little more into what’s going on.
Eventually, I had come to the conclusion that, well, nothing is updating. eos-update reports that there’s nothing to do, despite still being on Plasma 6.1.1 and multiple packages being months out of date. A friend of mine who also uses Endeavour also stated they had just received Plasma 6.2, so something is definitely off.
The only thing I can really visually see is whenever I use yay, it says No AUR package found for libalpm.so=15 and just outright refuses to install any available package updates (of which there are a few, but they’re non-critical)
So now I’m kind of at a loss for what could be happening. I have considered just reinstalling entirely, but this would take quite a bit of effort I would like to avoid if possible, as I do use this laptop in work and I would like to avoid downtime where possible, but I would also like to stay up to date for security.
If anyone has anything I could try or if there’s more info needed, I’m open ears! I’m just at a loss for what to try now, and looking online hasn’t really led me anywhere useful.
The vast majority of the recent updates I’ve received seem to be mirror related, so I think they’re fine? Though I’m not entirely sure how to be certain of this, is there a sure way to check this?
It just gives the same output as eos-update does, which can be seen below.
:: Synchronizing package databases...
endeavouros is up to date
core is up to date
extra is up to date
multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
there is nothing to do
Oh, after updating the mirrors, I now have around 1000 package updates through yay, and I don’t see any complaint of a missing package, I’ll see what this does, may be a moment
