Hello all,
After updates on orion and a reboot we had a boot failure with the following error message. It is unknown what caused this, but grub was also updated:
[2020-05-18T19:18:52+0000] [ALPM] upgraded grub (2:2.04-5 -> 2:2.04-7)
The grub error:
symbol `grub_file_filters` not found
When trying to grub-install with the latest grub package it fails and results into the following bug FS#63656
We downgraded grub to grub-2:2.02-8-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz from archive.org, to get a package listing you can use the handy url. [2]
This raised the question of grazzolini whether we should continue using a partionless btrfs setup and as we are about to setup a new orion.archlinux.org this might be relevant :)
I wonder if the new box also has UEFI already and if we should switch away from grub? (although I think all our vps'es use grub)

We don't want to corner ourselves into this kind of issue where using blocklists might be needed if ever grub core.img increases in size, so, partitionless is not a really good idea. Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini
