EndeavourOS downgrades/Probleme ab Mai 2025

Problem:

EndeavourOS hat mit Mai 2025 angefangen fast das ganze System downzugraden. Mittlerweile sind meine beiden EndeavourOS Systeme down & viele Downgrades haben nicht funktioniert….

Ursache:

Mesa (Graphik-Karten Bibliothek auf der viele Graphik-Prozesse aufbauen) hatte einen großen Bug im Arch-Zweig. Der LTS-Kernel, den ich primär verwende, hatte ebenfalls zu dieser Zeit einen major-bug.

Conclusio:

Muss mir eine vollkommen andere Herangehensweise angewöhnen wenn es um Arch-Distros geht. Laut Deepseek/Framework hat EndeavourOS schnell reagiert,

Mögliche Überlegungen:

  • immer alles zu updaten
  • verzögert zu updaten
  • davor Forum aufs bugs zu durchleuchten zb.: https://github.com/endeavouros-team/Important-news

Deepseek-Analyse (KI):

Based on the search results and recent EndeavourOS developments, the package downgrades you observed 1-3 months ago likely stem from several documented issues and protective measures. Here’s a breakdown of key factors:

### 🔧 1. **Upstream Package Instabilities**
   – **Mesa Graphics Issues (May 2025)**: Version `1:25.1.1-1` caused regressions on some hardware, prompting an official recommendation to downgrade to earlier versions .
   – **Libnotify Breakage (February 2025)**: Version `0.8.4-1` disrupted notification systems, and users were advised to downgrade as a workaround .
   – **Dracut/LTS Kernel Conflict (May 2025)**: Version `107-1` with LTS kernels led to boot failures (`failed to mount /sysroot`), requiring downgrades to `106-1` .

### 🛡️ 2. **EndeavourOS Protective Mechanisms**
   – The `eos-update` tool (fixed in January 2025) automatically prioritizes stability. If packages like `mesa` or `libnotify` were flagged as problematic, your system may have reverted to stable versions during updates .
   – Repository adjustments (e.g., moving the `[endeavouros]` repo before Arch repos in `pacman.conf`) can sometimes cause temporary conflicts, resolved via downgrades .

### ⚠️ 3. **User-Triggered Interventions**
   – Manual downgrades may have been applied if you followed community advisories (e.g., for `dracut` or `mesa`). The search results show multiple such cases requiring user action .
   – Using tools like `grub-customizer` (discouraged by EndeavourOS) might corrupt update processes, leading to inconsistent states .

### 🛠️ **Troubleshooting Steps**
1. **Check Update Logs**: 
   „`bash
   grep -i „downgraded“ /var/log/pacman.log
   „`
   Identify which packages were downgraded and when. 
2. **Review Recent Fixes**: 
   – Ensure `eos-update` is updated to `25.1.1-1` or later . 
   – Verify no remnants of problematic packages (e.g., `libnotify>=0.8.4-1`). 
3. **Community Resources**: 
   – Forums were temporarily offline (resolving July 22, 2025 ), but check archived threads like „[SOLVED] Backlight brightness issues“ or „dracut 107-1“ for similar cases . 

### 💎 **Conclusion**
No systemic „greater troubles“ exist—the downgrades were likely targeted fixes for upstream bugs. EndeavourOS’s rapid response (documenting workarounds within days of issues) reflects proactive maintenance, not project instability. If downgrades persist after verifying fixes, consider hardware-specific bugs (e.g., GPU/Ryzen quirks seen in community threads ).
