After a fortnight I did a Sudo Pacman -Syu and this came quite strange, I never had such a huge update and the only time it happened with another distro it broke…What should I do?
That’s nothing unusual, just one month of updates pushed from Arch
I had bigger one ~1k packages and ~3GB to download – everything went fine
So just do update, everything most likely will be fine.
A command worth adding to your notes - very useful when dealing with mirror issues:
sudo pacman-mirrors -f5
Might help you to configure reliable mirror…

You couldn’t delete the fucking folder seemed immortal until I found this solution Locate the folder: ls /var/lib/pacman/local/ | Grep Libayatana-Indicator. Delete that specific folder: sudo rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/local/exact-folder-name. And the operating system was updated
