Pacman says there are no updates to be installed for more than a month

I believe something is wrong with Pacman in my Arch. For more than a month, there are no packages with updates available. When I run pacman --Syu, this is the output:

:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
warning: linux: ignoring package upgrade (5.5.13.arch2-1 => 5.9.14.arch1-1)
 there is nothing to do

Does anyone know why is this happening? And how to fix it?

Nothing is wrong with pacman, it's an issue with your mirror.

Choose a different mirror and try again.

However be wary of the mkinitcpio changes detailed here: https://archlinux.org/news/moving-to-zs … kinitcpio/

Do I have to care about that right now? I have added the linux-lts package to the IgnorePkg settings.

The fact that you have it in IgnorePkg means that you have to care.
