Installing "linux-6.12.1.artix1-1" package stops at build hook autodetect

Hi everyone,

I was upgrading my system this morning, and then the update process got freezed at the step saying:
Code: [Select]
-> Running build hook: [autodetect]
After waiting over an hour, I killed the process.

Trying to reinstall linux package again stops at the same step every time, whether through pacman, yay, or manually.

The same happens when running:
Code: [Select]
mkinitcpio -p linux

Is this a problem with my installation or Is there another thing causing this issue?

Please help!

Try
Code: [Select]
mkinitcpio -v -p linux
Maybe verbose output can help.

I temporarily solved the problem by making a workaround and deleting the "autodetect" from the mkinitcpio.conf file

So, in order to try to understand what's happening, I followed your suggestion, and ran the command
Code: [Select]
mkinitcpio -v -p linux
after reverting the mkinitcpio.conf file

The output is:
Code: [Select]

It stops again at same step, and no output after the last line for several minites. If I got any update I'll post it here.

I'd try install some other kernel (e.g. linux-lts) or downgrade kernel to previous version. Also I'd check if /usr/lib/initcpio/install/autodetect is not damaged.

Thanks for your suggestions.
I've already tried the Lts kernel before making this thread, with no avail. The installation process didn't complete as it stopped at autodetect hook building.

How can I check that?

Code: [Select]
pacman -Qkk mkinitcpio
Thanks for your response, and sorry for late reply
running that command gives me this
Code: [Select]
anoki@victus15-fb1003nx:~$ pacman -Qkk mkinitcpio
backup file: mkinitcpio: /etc/mkinitcpio.conf (Modification time mismatch)
backup file: mkinitcpio: /etc/mkinitcpio.conf (Size mismatch)
backup file: mkinitcpio: /etc/mkinitcpio.conf (SHA256 checksum mismatch)
mkinitcpio: 84 total files, 0 altered files
I then remvoed that config file (/etc/mkinitcpio.conf) and reinstalled mkinitcpio to regenerate it, and that solved the problem.
Many thanks for your help @Ambie
