pacman: unrecognized option '--sysupgrade#' [SOLVED]

Hi Guys,

I have just completed a fresh install of Arch and I love it. I do seem to have one wrinkle in build however...
Everytime I shut down, a bunch of pacman messages are displayed during the shutdown sequence?

pacman: unrecognized option '--sysupgrade#'

Does anyone know how to remove/fix this?

Kind regards,
Stonie.

Is that a typo with the "#" at the end?

Not in my post at least. the Crunch '#'_is_ in the output.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

I don't think all think all of the messages will be logged.  everything.log will have some shutdown related messages.

At what point in the shutdown sequence does the message occur?

Alternatively it may be displaying a message from startup.  If you switch to tty1 whilst logged in is the message already displayed?

Check rc.conf and rc.local for anything that may have been added which could cause this.

Also, check your .bashrc.

Thanks Loafer!

I found it, line 84 of rc.conf:

# Network profiles are found in /etc/network.d
pacman --sync --refresh --sysupgrade#
# This now requires the netcfg package

I guess it looks like a bad edit by me during install.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Stonie.
