Linux-firmware >= 20250613.12fe085f-5 upgrade requires manual intervention

Nothing as wrong looking as an empty beer glass

Does the below mean I am fine?
I do not have any noticeable issues ATM.

Very neat output.
TYVM for that command.
I don’t understand it (yet) but I like what it outputs.

I must have done the update already and missed all that nasty stuff.
Is it only affecting AMD gpu’s?
Mine’s an NVIDIA.

Once again folks are searching the repositories..

All you have done is shown that those packages exist in the mirrors.

Which you have installed would likely be of more interest.

And that could only be judged as more or less acceptable when compared to the hardware it is being deployed on.

If you dont care and have all of them then that would work too.

You see my avatar name correct?
I ain’t a lying :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
TY very much for the correction.

Sorry, no worries..

There has to be some consternation or comedy when posting roughly the same thing for the third or fourth time .. we will go with comedy. :wink:

By the way - with either pacman or expac you can use Q to query your local (installed) packages. ex;

pacman -Qs linux-firmware

The S on the other hand refers to ā€˜sync’ - so it will sync information or whole packages from the mirrors. Like Ss is search, Si is info, and S is just install - all ā€˜from the repositories’.

Thanks a bunch.
I actually read the thread more thoroughly after reading your reply and saw that command and did the below:

I only usually do the updates form the welcome window.
So, I am unsure whats going on here now that I am paying attention.
If I am learning anything about Linux, it is that there is closed source ā€œblobsā€ that are provided by hardware venders for Linux to use alongside the opensource portion of the hardware’s ā€œdriverā€, in Windows lingo.
IS that what we’re doing here, upgrading drivers for hardware that has closed source portions or blobs to them?
IS blob and firmware words for the same thing?
If so, cool, if not more reading required.

]$ pacman -Qs linux-firmware

You are not yet up to date.
If you believe that you already are maybe performing it will give us some clues.
Perform your regular

sudo pacman -Syu

What we would be doing is the regular update - which includes all packages.
In this case that includes firmware packages that provide firmware files and also require some manual intervention in most cases due to how certain things were rolled out at the same time other canges were made (its unimportant to go into here).

The ā€˜manual intervention’ is whats been outlined in the pinned announcement and the subject of this thread here - you will get the linux-firmware meta package, which should also depend on and provide all the other linux-firmware-* packages .. but you may encounter a ..file exists in filesystem error and thus follow the procedure noted, namely;

sudo pacman -Rdd linux-firmware
sudo pacman -Syu linux-firmware

This uses the ā€˜ignore dependencies’ flag while removing the firmware package (-Rdd - this should just about never be used unless instructed), then a regular sync and upgrade while installing the firmware package again.

ah, ummm.
MUCH too late for that, my ADHD addled brain said to me just a few minutes ago, "go ahead and do it-if it gets borked reboot to Windows and come right back here and cry like a baby until someone helps you?

Apologies, I am super spontaneous and quite stupid sometimes on my own machines.
At work that’s not true-but I take a pill just before work and that’s about worn off now so…

Well, if I get an error I’ll post it before I reboot.
If it looks clean, I’ll reboot and one way or another I’ll post the results of that.

I am at 89/90 and then I should know.

It LOOK’s like a FULL upgrade to me. I mean everything seems to be getting updated.

Always should be - partial upgrades are not supported.

Sorry, I got distracted by ChatGPT.

I have not yet performed the reboot.
My only concern is this right at the very end.

Seems to be some other unrelated thing..

Broken pipe on `yay` update

Broken pipe error

( And it seems the general consensus is to just ignore it? )

And you will need to rebuild that librewolf package apparently.

perhaps that’s what the broken pipe is referring to? Librewolf needing a rebuild.

No, different things.

Do. Not. Believe. ā€œAIā€.

That’s the best way to blow up EOS (or any Linux system).
Better believe @cscs and other knowledgeable people here. Or the Arch Wiki. Much better than second-hand Internet-collected hearsay.

This is a nuisance error. You can ignore it.

I’ve been OK so far with firmware updates, hoping there’s no issues with this one…

ok ever since i did this update , i don’t like what i see when running yay.

and why is all this updating? i don’t need it ? it’ taking forever

i never had mirror list errors before , nor did all that firmware update

The last week has been a mess of firmware updates and changes. Hopefully Arch Linux has its stuff together (for the moment)? Btw, firmware is definitely a needed component. Better to have updates that correct issues then no updates, right? Also, mirror errors have nothing to do specifically with Arch pushing out firmware updates.
