[GREMLINS] 11 February 2018, 12:52:19 Ok, I said the word Gremlins in the forum first, I did not see a mention of it anywhere.But if you had checked your new pacman.conf.pacnew you would find out that there is a new repository on order and it is placed above system. Is Gremlins going to be an Artix clone? It is empty as we speak and commented out on the conf file.Is there another difference between .pacnew and pacman.conf, that is all I noticed. Is there an easy/simple way to compare a conf with a conf.pacnew file, most of the tools I used are just as hard as opening them both with two windows side by side and comparing them line by line.

Re: [GREMLINS] Reply #7 – 11 February 2018, 18:44:50 Wow!!!unstable --> goblinstesting --> gremlinson system, galaxy, and lib32Eventually on world too I presume?By next year there will be no mirrorlist-arch but there is a new mirrorlist in arch and artix hasn't copied that one over, I assume there are some changes for them to be publishing a new mirrorlist.
Re: [GREMLINS] Reply #8 – 11 February 2018, 19:53:40 Based on what i read on the network...basic gremlins repository will have "testing" packages for system and world,i think the same way it has arch for core and extraThis should be done to copy the structure....
