I just went "Shiit! Am I sitting on potential system breakage?" (because I don't remember doing any such intervention)
But turns out it was just a conflicts with change.

From what I know, pacman straight-up asks you what you want, in these cases. Sure, it's technically manual intervention, but for me, who scans over updated packages every-time, this is considered standard procedure.

Manual intervention is when GRUB doesn't install properly using the suggested command and you have to learn where your distro places the boot image and configure stuff accordingly.

Also, I don't have JDK so...

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
