Genuinely the only time Arch has broken something I can't fix myself - eviltoast

Context: A few days ago Arch pushed out a legitimately broken update. This was because they shipped out a testing version of util-linux. They very quickly fixed this… except I use SE Linux (say what you will I wanted to dive into it) and now I’m stuck waiting for the maintainer to update the AUR package so I can fix my system. This is not a general arch problem but a me problem because of my less standard, more niche build. Although the wait is genuinely making me reconsider using SE Linux as it’s been a hassle to maintain (just to keep things up to date, I gave up on keeping it in enforcing mode).

    I just want to say that “Arch” didn’t push or update anything. Everything in the AUR is maintained by the community and if something from there breaks then it’s not on the Arch team

      This package is not the fault of the Arch team. However they did push a legitimately broken update that required some people to manually reinstall core components of their system to make it functional again. They sre not responsible for my issues but they did actually fuck up recently.
