How to upgrade archlinux pacman "there is nothing to do"?

modInfo · 2012-06-08 18:49:16

Hi, I have a problem, since nine days did not update the Arch on the laptop, because I still shows:

[root@arch~] # pacman-Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases ...
core is already the newest version
extra is already the newest version
community is already the newest version
multilib is already the newest version
archlinuxfr is already the newest version
:: Starting full system upgrade ...
there is nothing to do

I've tried, and pacman -Syy even pacman-Scc to clear the cache and nothing.
Any ideas?
I use the same mirror on the pc and there are no problems with updates, every day there are any.

Try changing your mirrors. If your pc and laptop are on different architectures it may explain why one works and another doesn't. Maybe the mirror owner didn't update his repos on the architecture that you have on your laptop.

I already tried to change the mirror to another, but nothing helped. Only a laptop I have this problem, and have the same architecture

There is a possibility that there is a problem with pacman's local database. What does "pacman -Q" show?

[root@arch ~]# pacman -Q | pastebin

pacman -Q showing nothing is a symptom of the local database being corrupt. You are not getting that symptom, but the always up-to-date issue is another symptom.

Are you sure the mirror you changed to was up-to-date?
