installing pacman (6.0.0-2) breaks dependency 'pacman<5.3' required by pamac-common

pamac and octopi currently do not work with pacman6.
It requires upstream support for new alpm.

Also: https://dotsrc.org/news/2021-06-01_kvaser_crashed/

dotsrc.org has had several hickups these days. Just comment out their servers in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist:

# ... and so on...

pacman -Syy is needed afterwards.

Update mirror seems to not work correctly when i try to update i get "failed retrieving file 'system.db' from mirrors.dotsrc.org : Failed to connect to mirrors.dotsrc.org port 443: Connection timed out" I've dig a little bit more and found that the server seems to be located in Denmark and recently i've heard about some international scandal involving Denmark, US and EU. Hope is not related to that. :o Tried to ping that domain and i get somehow a big delay 71 ms. Is the server under DDoS attacks?

Could be the ZFS file system the culprit for that crash?

as they wrote is Hardware failure. ZFS is software => no

Could be a little bit of both though but yes the main problem is the hardware failure but i was curious what could cause that failure other than the age of the hdd cos i assume was not that old and if it was i think they would have changed it not to "explode" on the spot  ::) . I brought ZFS in discution cos i heard Linus Torvald warned to not use ZFS  ::)

Linus doesn't like ZFS probably because of the license ZFS uses, ZFS itself is not bad, many enterprises uses it because of it's reliability and features.

I would rather use ext4 without journling for better performance but i'm a complete noob in this so anyone should take it with a grain or 2 of salt  :D . But i'm looking for some ways to safely disable journaling. Who needs time stamps in nanoseconds?

Okay... I've updated my Artix installation, but it seems that /etc/pacman.conf isn't updated. Now it writes such a thing while trying to update:

 there is nothing to do

Also, it was necessary to delete yay-bin package from AUR, but I can live with that.
What am I doing wrong?
