[limo@asus ~]$ yay -Rns grub
error: target not found: grub
-> exit status 1
[limo@asus ~]$ yay grub
No Grub anymore!
I will reboot in a few minutes and hopefully I will be back alive!
Reboooted.
Everything is as perfect as usual, the distro and the community.
Thank you all.
Thank you @pebcak@chromian@SearingSunrazeSmash@dalto
You may need some time to plow through the information but I am sure it is very beneficial in the long run.
Also, I recommend looking into pactree command line tool. It is a very useful tool for learning about the dependencies of a package X (pactree X) and also its reverse dependencies, that is what other packages are dependent on X (pactree -r X).
I thought just updates everything and installs whatever packages whether in Main repos or in AUR.
The reason seems to be something related to ventoy, as soon I uninstalled it, everything went back to normal.
After the initial installation, every single thing you install you know about. You can be ignorant to it, but you have to accept it install every time. Iâve read you saying this more than once.
STOP running this. Youâve been told dozens of times by literally half this forum now.
I knew about it from some friend here. It was so interesting as I could distrohop as I wish just from a flash disk. And I can experiment whatever I want. But recently it was not working fine as expected, some ISOs didnât boot from the flash disk. So, what happened today with me was the end with it.
In a previous discussion I remember we discussed it and since then I am using only yay.
I just did it this time just to see if everything will be OK. Just once.
By the way, it could be run as you mentioned:
So, running it once is not a really serious crime!
You can see my previous post:
I see typing just yay is for sure much easier!
Again I repeat, this is what I actually do since our last discussion.
Nothing out of the ordinary happened today. There was no error. Yay wasnât reinstalling all the packages on your computer. As @dalto pointed out, you were building a package from source code. When you build big projects from source code, you often get a lot of output, it is supposed to do that.
If you didnât want to do that, you should have installed ventoy-bin instead. This is where someone else has already built the binary for you.
I had to panic! Seeing Grub! With all my due respect, no, not again.
If something is related to boot loader or file system, it scares me to end up with a non bootable system! Why I am on a rolling release initially! So not to have to install again!
Why I am on EndeavourOS, for many reasons everybody knows. Amazing distro, amazing community.
