    First time?

    jdk-openjdk vs jre-openjdk? archlinux.org mentions it, although the workaround it provides is fake news and also results in pacman complaining about conflicts.

    I just removed stuff, abused pacman --nodeps and prayed that my backups would be sufficient to restore my inevitable fuckup (no fuckup happened, somehow). Try that at your own risk though…

      I think I’ll just switch to something more user-friendly again. When I installed Manjaro, I thought I liked tinkering. But since then I’ve started working and just want to get home to a functioning computer.

      I appreciate the effort, though.

          pacman -Syu jdk-openjdk

          automatically remove

                 -u, --upgrades
           Restrict or filter output to packages that are out-of-date on the
           local system. Only package versions are used to find outdated
           packages; replacements are not checked here. This option works best
           if the sync database is refreshed using -Sy.

          try pacman -Sy jdk-openjdk

          Wow I am just now seeing the Arch docs. They are wrong. That’s pretty sad.
