Uninstall kalu and try again.

Hi @fernandoganem,

sudo pacman -Rs kalu

sudo pacman -Syu

then install package “eos-update-notifier”

sudo pacman -S eos-update-notifier

Why rebooting twice? That’s Linux. :wink:

I think the first reboot is not necessary.
And second, a relogin would be enought.
If someone did like this and could confirm it…

In my opinion, when a package with its dependencies (-Rs) is de-installed or deleted, it is good to restart and reload the session.

When installing a new package, it is not necessary, unless it is a kernel.

Relogin should be enough after installing eos-update-notifier. But reboot doesn’t hurt either… :wink:

Thank you. This worked for me, as well, without second reboot. All is functioning as expected.
