Octopi Can't Be Updated/Not in Repositories

Nov. 2021:

If you are on Dragonized or any other editions and use Octopi, and found that it broke, you should update again from a terminal:

sudo pacman -Syu

Octopi has been rebuilt and will work again.

9-23-24 Update:

Octopi does not appear to be in the Garuda or pacman repositories any longer

sudo pacman -Syu octopi
[sudo] password for mike:
Synchronizing package databases…
garuda is up to date
core is up to date
extra is up to date
multilib is up to date
error: target not found: octopi

I am not sure why but it looks like arch dropped it from the repo at least currently.

Looks like you can still build it manually from the repo. Though I have not tried that but I don’t actually use it.

Where is chaotic-AUR?
Please check and fix your pacman conf and try again.

If not working , maybe it’s from AUR instead of chaotic-AUR (can’t check atm), so:

garuda-update -a

Or to rebuild it
