Cachyos-update error

[cscs]

This is one of the reasons its frustrating to have multiple duplicate topics.

@cscs

We can only guess its similar to the other threads because of the time and description .. and in those cases its flatpak/flathub causing the issue (or at least the way arch-update attempts to call it).

You might test this by applying various things like NoFlatpak or NoAUR to the arch-update.conf file and observing how it behaves in each case or together.

@cscs

So if you add NoFlatpak to the conf file does it perform correctly?

@cscs

@FernandoMMuniz

Where’s the config file?

$HOME/.config/arch-update/arch-update.conf

PS.

A default / example configuration file can be generated by running: arch-update --gen-config.

The configuration file can be edited by running: arch-update --edit-config

You should be able to see man arch-update.conf but I dont have it installed.

@cscs

No the actual issue is that flathub has problems.
And another issue is that arch-update does not check or fail gracefully.
And also that arch-update looks at flathub at all even if the system has no flatpaks.

@cscs

I have no idea if this is ever going to be ‘fixed’ or when or in what fashion. But until then or the connection becomes healthy or you apply that option (which apparently everyone should apply anyways unless using flatpak - to save time,cpu,energy,etc if arch-update is going to be a little dumb) it would seem to have a pretty sizable impact on the usability of this tool.

Maybe it will just encourage you and others to use pacman as the Archangels intended.
