Title: Package system/grub version
Post by: ElectricTao on 20 June 2023, 15:12:26
Please help a beginner in artix.

I had problems with my newly installed grub bootloader. Suspicion fell on the difference between installed version (from the artix system repo) and the upstream.

To check, I downloaded the PKGBUILD file
Code: [Select]
yay -G system/grub
, indicating that 4 patches are applied. At the same time, sources on gitea (https://gitea.artixlinux.org/packages/grub) contain only 2 patches. 

How can this be? Where did the additional patches come from?

Our grub is one version behind, for good reason. It's a critical component and there have been a couple of bugs lately that prevented booting. The one yay downloaded is from Arch, not Artix.
