Post your pacman.conf and the output of `pacman -Syu --debug`

Re: Pantheon Desktop Enviroment

Could you share the EXACT error message you recueve when you run "pacman -S pantheon"?

Could you also replace "SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional" with "#SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional".

Re: Pantheon Desktop Enviroment

Alucryd's unofficial repository contains more and more up-to-date packages than the few available in the community repository. To use it add the following lines at the top of your sources in /etc/pacman.conf

Do note that some packages are missing from the repository due to issues with upstream. You will have to supplement the repo with locally compiled packages.

I did fix the repo and put it on top of the rest but i cant figure out what to do with the missing packages.

Re: Pantheon Desktop Enviroment

You need to provide the missing packages by building them locally.

As of 6 November 2018, gala-gitAUR will fail to build with the current version of mutter, and will require a downgrade to the latest compatible version (3.28). (This is the reason why some packages are missing from the unofficial repo.) You can either downgrade, package mutter 3.28 separately (do consider submitting to AUR if you do), or wait until upstream decides to adapt the most recent version. gala-gitAUR is a dependency for a lot of packages; you need to take care of this for a lot of the applications.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … nvironment references https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gala-git/ and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wingpanel-git/ with the mentioned issue with gala-git.
