Good afternoon, I decided to install cachos on a second computer, but with a gnome environment. Everything worked fine for the first few minutes of using Octopi, but over time I can’t install the package with the error “octopi - octopi-helper[aborted]: There is an instance of pacman already running”. At the same time, everything is set via pacman -S. There is no /var/lib/pacman/db.lck file, and there are no pacman processes either. There are no such problems on KDE either. I can assume that the problem may be in the way gnome closes programs.
After reinstalling, everything was fixed.
