does nobody else notice this is absolutely and obviously an ai generated image?
not to say that wal-mart is helping anyone at all. but this was clearly designed to spark outrage.

okay i got it now.
was something wrong with the mirror i was using? if so, is there some way to know if i have a "lesser" mirror? or was the arch linux world just going thru a major update today and i had to wait it out?
egsaqmojz 1mo ago • 100%
so... i did another reflector refresh and then did an Syyu. Now this is happening...
this is with the mirrorlist shown in the picture below. not sure why i'd be getting almost 3 gigs of updates right now. i've been updating this and using this machine daily for months on this installation. when that is complete i'll try for python-polib again.
about 15 ruby packages got replaced with extra/ruby just now too.

yep, dns points me to 108.61.5.83 and i can get there by hostname and address thru the browser. i spun up a new live arch session i built with archiso. still can't get a hit thru pacman tho. really can't explain it.
egsaqmojz 1mo ago • 100%
absolutely. i've tried this on two x86 systems as well, my desktop and laptop. if there's no quick fix or obvious problem, i'm not above doing a full reinstall to fix this.
i'll spin up a vm to test too

giving this a try: sudo reflector --latest 10 --protocol https --country 'United States' --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Hi all, I have reason to believe a package I use (python-polib) was moved from the aur to the official extra repo. I'm now having trouble getting it installed. The old page gives a 404: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-polib This now seems to be the right source for this package: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-polib/ However, I do a `# pacman -Syyu python-polib` and pacman can't find the target. Do I need to do something here that I'm missing? My pacman.conf includes the "extra" repo and it updates during the Syyu command.

To button this up, I didn't figure out the one-line solution. I used a script that opnsense publishes to install opnsense on top of freebsd. This is the same script used in the opnsense installer img. Wasn't hard, but I was laser-focused on figuring out the one-line solution. :(

When I use just the wget aspect of the command, it dumps a bunch of jargon to my terminal, so I think that means I have the "stdout" aspect of that command right.
Hi all, I'm trying to put a command together to download a bz2 archive containing an img file and decompress it immediately, basically without saving it to the filesystem. Can this be done? This is what I've come up with so far, but it's incomplete: wget -qO- "https://opnsense.com/.../img.bz2" | bzip2 -dv Background: Trying to install OPNsense on Linode. Their hacky official guide says the best way to install FreeBSD is via the rescue mode. But FreeBSD posts their images as .img, so the filesystem size limitation of 1GB for the rescue image isn't an issue. But with OPNsense I need to decompress it. I have a few different options on how to install this but I see it as a good reason to learn more about stdin/out, piping commands, etc. Thanks in advance.
