Error while trying to install OpenZFS

Hey there, I am trying to follow the official OpenZFS docs and after I ran
Code: [Select]
pacman -Sy
i got this error:
Code: [Select]
warning: config file /etc/pacman.conf, line 123: directive 'EOF' in section 'archzfs' not recognized.

Should I be worried? The repos I currently have enabled are the base Artix repos+lib32, base Arch repos+multilib and yay is present for the AUR.

I manually installed Artix with the MATE desktop and use the OpenRC init system.

Thanks ahead!

Edit: found what's causing the issue, there was an "EOF" listed at the bottom of the file, which was causing the error.
Consider fixed.

You're free to use arch repo's, but why not install openzfs from Artix's universe repo? That has always worked for me, and still does.

Oh, I have the Arch repos enabled for other reasons, but OpenZFS also said to enable its own repo which is causing the error.

I'm just unsure what to do.

Check https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Repositories and place the universe repo above arch's in your pacman.conf file.
As always make sure to have a valid backup, and then run: sudo pacman -Sy zfs-git

Thank you very much, I do have all of the Artix repos on top of the Arch repos (including Universe), I'll reply again later to report any other issues.
