Recently, I’m experiencing the following issue repeatedly with different packages. It’s happened at least 3 times over the last two weeks, so I thought I’d bring it up.
If a run garuda-update
it will do normal system update, no specific warnings or anything. If I then run it again it will suddently tell me that specific packages are newer than the repository. None of the packages in question were installed manually, nor did I tinker with them.
I remember it happing with snapper
first, then some I don’t remember and today it was this. Interestingly, it seems extra
wasn’t even updated between the two runs.
I don’t need immediate assistance. This isn’t impacting system usability and I know how to fix it. I just think this shouldn’t happen?
