Thanks for notifying @SGS . I’m currently messed up as this forum after PacMan update.
The below is for Pamac.

sudo pacman -R pamac-flatpak-plugin
sudo pacman -S flatpak
sudo pacman -S pamac-flatpak-plugin

I’m happy if it works
The below is for PacMan :

Step by Step support by Peer Review :relieved::
Due to update to PacMan 6 ,the GUI Installer - Add/Remove Software is not working. Personally for me Pacman terminal too failed after update.
I tried and partially got my terminal working

git://git.archlinux.org/pacman.git

I clone Pacman and builded it

Source : Support for users who updated to PacMan 6

We need to merge two Pacman config files.
Follow below steps
1.

diff /etc/pacman.conf /etc/pacman.conf.pacnew

2.Copy output to clipboard
3.

sudo rm /etc/pacman.conf
sudo mv ./pacman.conf.pacnew ./pacman.conf

4.Keep Cache directory commented (add # before line start)

5.Add the below at the end of new pacman.conf file

Colour
ILoveCandy

On middle add

[chaotic-aur]
#SigLevel = Never
Include = /etc/pacman.d/chaotic-mirrorlist

  1. Uncomment the following (remove # at start; f line)

#[multilib]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#ParallelDownloads = 5

  1. Atlast enter to resume ur daily Work :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

sudo pacman -Syyu
Check by Refreshing Keyrings in Garuda Assisant (Blue Eagle icon)

If you need another installer like paru (Pacman wrapper based on yay) , type following command one by one

sudo pacman -S --needed base-devel
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/paru.git
cd paru
makepkg -si

It didnt help pacmac for me. Merged those files and edited.

Can someone upload the correct pacman.conf please.

There is pacman and pamac.
pacman work fine.
pamac need a fix.
You must wait or use other GUI.

To add to SGS' post,

pamac fix ----> this is a MANJARO project, so you have to wait for them.
While waiting, you can use terminal commands in the meantime

building Octopi from source worked for me... I mostly just use it for the update notifications and just update via pacman and paru though. Wonder if there is a notifier that hooks directly into pacman then I wouldn't need a gui one.

octopi
octopi may be found in the following packages:
  chaotic-aur/octopi 0.11.0-1    	/usr/bin/octopi
  chaotic-aur/octopi-dev 0.12.0-2	/usr/bin/octopi

Why from source? :slight_smile:

Because i mangled my pacman.conf like a moron xD I fixed it but took me forever. Why is it always the simplest things that get you? (somehow multilib and multilib testing got enabled at the same time)
