Checkupdates without sudo not possible anymore [solved]

Hi,

Until very recently, the checkupdates command (from pacman) could be run without sudo. Today, I realized the command returns nothing if it's not prefixed by sudo (while there are several updates available).

Do you know what happened ?

Thanks

Works fine for me.  Please post the output of `env`.

Ok, I upgraded, rebooted, and now it works again. I don't know what happened...
