I can't install cachy os gaming packages

Issues & Assistance
1

error: target not found: cachyos-gaming-meta
error: target not found: cachyos-gaming-applications
Press enter to exit

Would you mind posting the commands that caused that output?

Could really use a lot more information here before being able to troubleshoot the issue.

Prediction: pacman.conf problem.

I used Cachy OS Hello App/tweaks → Install Gaming Packages

Can you run a system update and post the output?

sudo pacman -Syu

sudo pacman -Syu

there is nothing to do

Run this command to upgrade your system instead, just this once, to try and solve the version desync issues:

sudo pacman -Syuu

Then run this command and post the output:

pacman -Ss cachyos-gaming

Yeah, I see it now. You’re missing a repository.

Can you post the contents of /etc/pacman.conf?

You should see something like this:

[cachyos-v3]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/cachyos-v3-mirrorlist

[cachyos-core-v3]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/cachyos-v3-mirrorlist

[cachyos-extra-v3]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/cachyos-v3-mirrorlist

[cachyos]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/cachyos-mirrorlist

For some reason, you seem to be missing the [cachyos] repository, which is where the gaming meta packages are located. So we just need to fix your pacman.conf which we can do once we see what the damage is in there.

It was that. Thanks for the help :raising_hands:
