For s6 users, updating to s6-linux-init-1.0.3.1-5 will hit some file 
conflicts and require manual intervention. This will first be required 
for [gremlins] and then [system] later.



If you want to save any changes made to s6-linux-init scripts first,

# cp -r /etc/s6/current/scripts /tmp



Then remove the current directory and reinstall s6-linux-init

# rm -rf /etc/s6/current

# pacman -Syu s6-linux-init



If you backed up your s6-linux-init scripts, you can move them back.

# cp -r /tmp/scripts /etc/s6/current



Now, it is safe to boot and shutdown the system again.
