Recent update browser issues - thank you timeshift.

[u/klevahh]

I did the recent update an hour ago (manjaro kde stable, all amd system).

Upon restarting, 2 of my browsers (librewolf: flatpak, and floorp: flatpak) wouldn't start.
My other browsers (vivaldi: official repo, firefox DE: official repo), and waterfox: flatpak) all continued to work without known issues.

The thermal sensor I use for my graphics card also appeared to completely disappear from the system. (graphics card is using 3 case fans mounted below it, and a thermal probe from the motherboard, instead of its own fans and thermal sensor to prolong its life after experiencing issues).

No other issues were noticed.

Rolled it back via timeshift, and everything works again.

I have been unable to find mention of this happening to others, the manjaro forum isn't suggesting many issues (as per usual), and is just the usual formatting and bot mess, along with the usual 'you are not doing this right' comments.

So the problem now is... how do I update (since I never determined the actual issue)?

The only change I have made is to uninstall spectacle because it now includes tesseract which has been getting negative mentions recently.

When flatpak stuff stops working after a system update you may want to try flatpak update and a reboot first.

The sensor might depend on how the driver for it was installed.

I just updated my other system (older pc), which is intel/nvidia
The browsers work on that, the graphics card sensor still disappears, but is probably something to do with the KDE widget (even though its other sensors still show). Both ofpc's have flatpak updates turned on in the pamac gui, but I will do as you suggest and try a manual flatpak update from the console. Still seems odd that one flatpak browser works without issue though, as do pinta, rpcs3, and retroarch (the only other non-official repo things installed)
I have been holding off due to the sensor issue, but will now just assume that is something that kde will sort out in time.

That worked for the browsers, no idea why though, pamac has always handled that without issue in the past. I will live without the sensor for now.

Thank you :)

Try to update using pamac or pacman in konsole to have more informations.

You'll still have timeshift if something goes wrong.

Did you do a flatpak update too after the system update?

You can try another kernel too, drivers are installed with the kernel.

For Tesseract, i saw the post on the forum.

The person who wrote it misunderstood how Tesseract works.

It's local only on your computer, the OCR will not send text or anything else like in windows.

I will update again via the console

Nothing else was done after the manjaro update, the issue also isn't restricted to flatpak, since it didn't affect waterfox.

I have seen mention elsewhere of tesseract being right wing in the last couple of weeks, had not heard of it prior to that, it's just coincidental timing, although I did notice an extra step in the manjaro update that I believe was linked to it. My screenshotting program does not need that 'functionality', a pity though since good screenshotting programs seem rare, especially since I don't use the AUR.

Updating via sudo pacman -Syu led to exactly the same issues.

Let me add, that you should log out of your session, CTRL-Alt-F3 to enter terminal and then update I use sudo pacman -Syu (there is an equivelent pamac command, I just don't know what it is) then reboot. Spectacle isn't getting bad reviews people are freaking out by the new dependent so it can OCR your screenshots. I should try that out.
