I am getting this message while keeping my system up to date.

Re: target not found!
What command are you running that's giving that output?

Re: target not found!
I don't buy it. Those errors are coming after pacman finishes.

Re: target not found!
You are right. I have been cheating.
There were extra commands hidden in an alias from a friend:
sudo pacman --noconfirm -Syyu
orph=$(pacman -Qtdq)
if [ -n "${orph}" ]; then
sudo pacman -Rscn "${orph}" #TYPO HERE!
fiThey were meant to prune orphan packages. With a typo: those quotes need to be deleted.
Thanks a lot!

Re: target not found!
It looks like a custom hook is failing. (nevermind: cross posted with the above).
Stop needlessly using -yy. And find smarter friends.
