Hello there,
as far as I understood, mabox is a rolling release, so that it should upgrade automatically – or am I wrong? At least my system stucks at 21.12. Do I have to upgrade kind of manually?
Thanks in advance
Carsten

Those versions in rolling release model doesn’t mean to much - they used for ISO release.
Anyway, you should have 22.04 already after updating.
Just run:
yay
from terminal.

Hi napcok,
executing “yay” results in some application updates, but not in an aupgrade of mabox. Here is the terminal output:

I`m not familiar enough to Linux to be able to see, what’s going wrong. Any idea would be highly appreciated 
Thanx

Looks like you don’t have Mabox repositories configured.
How this could happened?
Have you edited the /etc/pacman.conf file?

Thank you for your quick response … No, I didn’t edit the file you mentioned. At least not as far as I know. in /etc there are three pacman.conf files:

Your pacman.conf is the not the original provided by Mabox.
And was replaced probably by pacman.conf.pacnew during previous update - with your confirmation, it never happens automatically.
So remove it and replace with proper one.
sudo rm /etc/pacman.conf
sudo mv /etc/pacman-old.conf /etc/pacman.conf
Then get all updates, also from Mabox Linux repository:
yay

Thanks a lot – it works. I’m not shure, how and when I confirmed the replacement of the original conf-file… but probably you’re right and I overread something during an upgrade process…
Last question: After executing “yay” in the terminal ther was a warning, saying:
Warning: Configuration file /etc/pacman.conf, line 37: Directive "TotalDownload" in section "options" is not recognized.
Is there a blank space missing?

…okay, obviuosly no blank space missing. But what is wrong in line 37?

You can just comment it out with #.
I don’t remember what it means, but seems like it is not recognized by pacman anymore.
