Pacman.conf line 92: unknown option

warning: config /etc/pacman.conf line 92: unknown option ‘enable the multilib repositories as required here.’

is there some action I need to take regarding this warning?

Can you share your pacman.conf?

Ack sorry Dalto.

It probably means you have edited your pacman.conf and line 92 is invalid :0 and if you want it to pickup whatever line 92 is…yes there is action required to remediate.

In my pacman .conf line 92 reads this

# enable the multilib repositories as required here.

So does this mean that the OP thought uncommenting this would enable multilib I wonder.

Sometimes that might also mean an error on 91 or 93 too though..depending on the parse method. But you’re probably right :wink:

In my pacman .conf, lines 92-93 reads this

91 - # If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
92 - # enable the multilib repositories as required here.
93 -

Comment line 92. That’s your fix.

Yes

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
enable the multilib repositories as required here.

should instead be

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system
# enable the multilib repositories as required here.
