  • No, you are never specifying to actually upgrade the package with the ‘u’ flag. Running pacman -Sy archinstall would upgrade the package, since it would first refresh the package cache then reinstall the latest version.

    Also, there’s not really a benefit to using 2 'y’s but it does add some extra stress to the package mirrors, so I would avoid doing that.






































  • After this and the few hiccups I’ve had with Bitwarden on Linux (official snap in part still relies on Ubuntu 18.04 libraries and still defaults to X11, not great for security focused app), I’ve decided to give Proton a shot. Went for 2 year unlimited plan, so I hope they don’t do anything stupid in that time.

    That being said, I’m not hating on Bitwarden. Based on what one of the developers said, this seems to be an oversight from their side that they should hopefully address. This is just my excuse to try out the Proton suite based on their strong focus on privacy and security, albeit with a hefty cost (and somewhat scummy strategy of listing prices as monthly but are actually paid annually, and choosing the actually monthly options are much more expensive).
