Hi, I'm new to Artix.
pacman -Ss python-pytorch doesn't return anything, while the package exists in the arch repo ( https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/python-pytorch/ ). I don't think python-pytorch depends on systemd, is there any other reason why I can't find it.
Hi,
Welcome to Artix.
Do you have the arch community repo enabled in /etc/pacman.conf ?
yes, probably very easy reason, you don't enabled archlinux repo in your pacman.conf
Yeah pacman was updated and seems that repos like extra and community vanished. Searched for firefox and same was not available cos i have only system, world and galaxy repos enabled. We have to add "extra" and "community" repos in /etc/pacman.conf but i don't know how yet. Thanks once again Alium for your making it clear. :)
All we have to do is adding this if i get it right. Wait for some confirmation from experienced artix users if this is correct
[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[community]
Include =/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
After "system", "world" and "galaxy" cos artix has to be first
"Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch" is right!!! 😉
new pacman.conf was installed as pacman.conf.pacnew. so my originally pacman.conf was not touched. but i edited it a some time ago, so i guess a pacman.conf which was never edited could be replaced by new pacman.conf directly... and your extra and community repo was gone...
So i should rename from "pacman.conf" into "pacman.conf.pacnew" and add "......mirrorlist-arch" at the end? Cos i have no pacman.conf.pacnew file. Tried to add mirrorlist-arch at the end and now doesn't seem to work at all :o . I have to mention i'm on runit flavor of artix if that has something to do with this problem

you should manually adapt new changes from pacman.conf.pacnew to your pacman. conf.
if missing extra, community in your pacman.conf, you should add this entries at end of pacman.conf :
[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch
[community]
Include =/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch
what for difficulties you search on simple update of pacman package? my pacman working with new pacman package even without modify/adapting from pacman.conf.pacnew
guys, what you did, that you broke your pacman configuration?? :o
There is a new optdepend of pacman called artix-archlinux-support.
If you want to use arch repos, you better have this new package installed, it provides compatibility symlinks.
If not installed, arch packages that use sysusers and/or tmpfiles will throw errors on installing them.
