Well, I dont hace any local chamges to any S6 stuff (none of my trials for decryptimg the non root FS failed). So pure stock/vanilla from artix. So I didn't get any pacnew file.  I'll try later upgrading the packages one by one to see if there's sort of one or two main culprits.  But 1st I need to upgrade some boxes excluding all S6 updates, and moving before that all swap files generated by fallocate to being generated by dd.

As for S6, I honestly have no clue, but if I'm not mistaken, perhaps I saw a message or two with the DIRECTIVE warning, but if that's the case, they came from artix packages, not me.

Greetings !
