you dont need to update every time an update is available.
just update once every couple weeks
I know, I just like to see the "up to date" symbol in the toolbar, especially on a fresh install. Like I said, I get that it's rolling release; the problem isn't the frequency of updates, it's that this most recent update keeps failing when I try to install it.
I just have a small counter on my Polybar checking how many packages can be updated. Once it reaches a few hundred, I upgrade.
maybe try refreshing the keyrings first.
sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring
