I don’t know how to solve this error on extra db.
I tried different ways to update garuda, but none is working.
Can someone help ?
everything started with discord asking me for an update, but garuda is not permitting because of this error.

Thanks a lot.

I would suggest,

garuda-update remote fix

first, to read more on what that does visit wiki,

If that doesn’t work try to uninstall the package let updates finish and then reinstall the package.

I had the same error today. I solved it with the following:

update remote fix
sudo reflector --sort age --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
garuda-update -a

Make sure you have done the following before you post:

Issue still unresolved? Then:

  • ONE issue per topic.

  • Describe your issue in detail. The more we know, the better we can help

  • Show us the results of your searches, and what you’ve tried

  • After rebooting, post the FULL output of garuda-inxi in the body of the post (not linked externally, or collapsed with the “hide details” feature)

  • Format terminal output (including your garuda-inxi) as a code block by clicking the preformatted text button (</>) , or put three tildes (~) above and below the text

Without garuda-inxi this request will be moved to 412 Precondition Failed

Please no pictures from terminal,
Images can be read worse, are not searchable and copyable for further search.
