Hello, could you please help me with disabling multilib?
About two weeks back I installed google earth from https://aur.archlinux.org/google-earth-pro.git, probably using pakku.
I followed the installation guide and enabled multilib.
Today I have uninstalled google-earth-pro using "pacman -Rnssc".
Since I have no need for multilib, to keep the system clean I followed https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/of … g_multilib.
However, now when I try to update the system I get:
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
error: failed to update multilib (no servers configured for repository)
error: failed to synchronize all databases
Thanks

How can you not know if you ran the command pakku or not?

What installation guide?

Huh? Well, I might have installed it the old fashioned way. It does only have one 32 bit dependency after all.
But as I say, I probably have used pakku.

The official one: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Go … stallation
It's not much of a guide I grant you, but it does say "installation"

Post the contents of /etc/pacman.conf and /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist using [code] [/code] tags so we can read it properly.

Solved!
Oops, yeah I see it now. The "header" of multilib needs commenting too.
Anyway thanks for the help!
Solution:
In the file /etc/pacman.conf - instead of:
#[multilib]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
I had:
[multilib]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Actual solution:
use an editor with syntax highlighting.
