This is the first I've seen something like this on Linux. I'm using endeavourOS and update my system fairly regularly. Is this "normal"?

Firefox is v122 installed from the ~~Aur~~ normal arch repositories with pacman.

edit: added install method

What install method did you use? Aur/Flatpak/Binary (DDL)?

[-] governorkeagan@lemdro.id 7 points 8 months ago

Aur. I’ll add that to the post now

Is there a reason you installed from the AUR instead of the normal Arch repositories? (pacman)

[-] governorkeagan@lemdro.id 3 points 8 months ago

Honestly, I always (at least in my head) thought of the AUR and normal arch repositories as the same. TIL.

To correct myself, I installed Firefox with pacman.

Weird that you’re having issues with the arch repo install, I’ve been running firefox from them for years and not had any issues

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
