Title: new news
Post by: mrbrklyn on 21 September 2017, 07:20:09
Our new primary mirror is up and running. Update artix-mirrorlist from [system-testing] and merge /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew into /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.

such is the news!

The update is a pacman command?

The real news is that user intervention is required, otherwise you'll never get any updates.

I don't see in that thread what needs to be seen.  I see spinets of code to https uris

When I did this:
https://artixlinux.org/
# Enable [system-testing] in /etc/pacman.conf
[system-testing]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Then run:
pacman -Sy system-testing/artix-mirrorlist
mv /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

that failed:
[ruben@flatbush ~]$ sudo pacman -Sy system-testing/artix-mirrorlist
