Cachyos hyprland installation problem

I installed the ISO on a USB drive and started with NVIDIA driver support. After booting, I opened the default KDE interface and continued with the installation. I followed all the steps and selected the option to format the disk. The installation process began, but at 37% it switched to Pacman and returned an error: “Command

pacman
returned error code 1.” However, when using other desktop environments, the installation worked fine and I was able to install KDE normally. The same problem is also happening in the virtual machine. https://termbin.com/d3fg

I apologize for any errors in my English; I am using Google Translate to communicate my language and Portuguese.

Is this a reoccuring issue? There were problems in hyprland packaging over at Arch a while ago IIRC. It seems fine tho looking at the repo search now. Can you try again?

It’s not a recurring problem, and it’s current on Monday 20/1 I managed to install hyprlend to test how it was, then yesterday 23/01 I went to install it on my computer with a new ISO, and the problem happened, error 1, so I went install on the virtual machine since it had worked on it and also on the virtual machine the same problem happened, I downloaded a new ISO today on the 24th, I tried again and it’s still giving error 1 https://termbin.com/023f

Do you want to build up hyprland from the ground up?

Otherwise you could also use your KDE environment to install hyprland on top using dotfiles.

You could for example use this bash script:

Ah, the hyprland stuff has been sorted now. You’re just installing both cachyos-kde-settings and cachyos-hyprland-settings which are incompatible with each other. You need to pick either, not both.
