exactly this happened to me/ thank you!. Making me question if is safe to develop projects on top of arch and not better to either use docker or virtual machine or other device. though support for hardware devices such as cameras would become a new worry. I just feel on arch the ground is always moving beneath you
Hey @cyphunk , glad it helped out. Re: arch. I wouldn’t have it otherwise now. Actually Manjaro. Arch as main, vm’s or dockers for specifics. Workflow is faster, not locked down in distros for updates & trading it for the ever ending small tweaks required to make it run. Actually now on arch gst is still a huge pain, cameras segfault, have to downgrade, not in the mood… still leagues away from planned obsolescence software & hardware platforms everyone seems to cheer so nicely
No plans to leave. Things are rock solid, even on minor transient codestorms. And then there’s vm’s if things go too…
