I was away for a couple of days, I came back, booted, upgraded, browsed through
email and then shut it off. That's all I did. I always rerun pacman -Su to make sure
there was nothing left to do. I had done this in the same small period for my other
installations as well, same pkg list came up. The next day none would boot.
I run system-testing from the first day it was announced, when world and galaxy
were not ready yet. On that first day I made the mistake and disabled [system]
but I found out that stable and testing must be both enabled.
Now all three are testing (sys-world-galaxy). Is this wrong? I haven't seen
detailed instructions on this and never had any arch experience. In Manjaro
all you had to do was switch a tag stable/testing/unstable.
Anyway, it has happened before where some things would show through
an upgrade and less than an hour later more would appear. I must have
fallen through the cracks of in between critical updates.
I am sure I did not alter anything else in the system as I had no energy that
day to deal with anything else other than check email, news, the weather.
I installed Artix the first day it was announced it existed in the Manjaro-forum.
I only converted my Manjaro-OpenRC the week they pulled OpenRC and
eudev off their repositories. There was someone else on the forum who
said they did an upgrade and their system wouldn't reboot a few days
before me. I can only interpret this as mirrors not syncing as expected.
Maybe for every set of related updates there should be a specific release
that must be complete before any update can take place. Something like
Debian's release files.
