[SOLVED] Synchronization with community disappeared during an update.

When I try to update with pacman -Syu , community synchronization is gone.
Did I miss something or is there some mistake?

$ sudo pacman -Syu
:: Sincronizzazione dei database in corso...
 core è aggiornato
 extra è aggiornato
:: Aggiornamento del sistema in corso...
 Nessun aggiornamento disponibile

Everything works and the updates install. But it seems strange that the synchronization with the community.db has disappeared

Checked now, actually News says: Update your system and merge the pacman pacnew /etc/pacman.conf.pacnew file. This is required as we have moved the [community] repository into [extra].

Thanks for the heads up, what does this transfer involve? My system is made from scratch due to a broken hard drive. I don't have to do anything I guess.

No, nothing as long as your merge works out. And a daily reminder you're running a *rolling-release distribution* that has *daily* updates.
