Just FYI - lack of Archlinux ARM updates

ARM General system
1

I noticed that there have not been any updates on Archlinux ARM for several days. I did some research and found this thread on the Archlinux ARM forum.

https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=16236

As in the title, just a FYI.

Archlinux ARM updates are now available.

Thanks to Archlinux ARM for their hard work in making this upgrade to their packages system.

I just updated my EnOS RPi 4 development machine with Plasma. 288 updated packages.

Update went smooth with no problems.

I also made a donation to Arch Linux ARM to help keep things going.

The mirrors may not all be synced yet. I had to change mirrorlist and comment out the first uncommented mirror and try another one. Then it completed successfully.

Some packages exploded in size leading to 450 MB more space:

extra/qt6-webengine                   6.4.0-5                  6.4.1-1                  183.32 MiB      55.50 MiB
extra/suitesparse                     5.13.0-1                 6.0.1-1                  142.47 MiB      18.26 MiB
core/linux-firmware                   20220913.f09bebf-1       20221109.60310c2-1        53.70 MiB      81.13 MiB

Just these three packages are adding around 400 MB in installed size.

300 packages on RPI for me :sweat_smile:
Odroid next
492 on Odroid :grimacing:
