Troubleshoots
Information for Catalyst users
If you are using an AMD card with Catalyst it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use pacman for this update!!! The new style how Catalyst works now, would be this:
Catalyst-Utils needs now three new packages: catalyst-video, catalyst-input and catalyst-server.
Catalyst-Video provides some needed drivers like Intel and Vesa, since we have some hybrid systems too
Catalyst-Input provides the needed input drivers
Catalyst-Server provides the compatible Xorg-Server
Without these packages it would be not possible to still provide Catalyst at all. So it is logical to remove conflicting packages on these AMD systems. It can be tested with a new dev-build. If there are still issues regarding Catalyst, open an issue or a new thread, so we can discuss it.

Issues with updating MATE
Some users have mate-menu installed from AUR. Please remove this package if you use the GTK2 version of MATE before trying to update. If you have a different issue with updating, please post.
LibreOffice and GTK3
LibreOffice might be broken on gtk-based Desktop Environments. Workaround would be to force a look to Libreoffice by editing /etc/profile.d/libreoffice*sh. We recommend to uncomment SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk. Our KDE edition isn't affected by this issue.
GTK3
With this we updated Gnome and GTK to 3.20. This will break most of the themes, which will be fixed if and when their developers decide to update them. Some GTK 3.20-compliant themes are ready now - see further down this post.
The new default Manjaro GTK theme, which is GTK 3.20 compatible, is Vertex-Maia
Code: Alles auswählen
sudo pacman -Sy vertex-maia-themes vertex-maia-icon-theme xcursor-maia
Code: Alles auswählen
sudo pacman -Sy maia-icon-theme gtk-theme-maia plasma5-themes-maia xcursor-maia
QT apps style with GTK - only needed for non-KDE desktop environments!
With QT 5.7 you need to install qt5-styleplugins and qt5ct and configure your system to have an unified look again.
ufw
If you have issues with ufw not working anymore, you have to copy your custom rules to a different folder. Do it like this:
Code: Alles auswählen
sudo cp -v /usr/lib/ufw/user.rules.pacsave /etc/ufw/user.rules
sudo cp -v /usr/lib/ufw/user6.rules.pacsave /etc/ufw/user6.rules
steam
We support now several different steam-clients:
steam-manjaro: is our definition how steam should work on Manjaro.
steam-native: is our definition how steam should be used with our native libraries
steam: is the upstream client by Archlinux
steam-native-runtime: is the addon by upstream Archlinux to use native libraries
The clients by Manjaro are better tested and prefered for Manjaro Linux. However the upstream versions might also work for you.
