thread just prompted me to check and yeah I hadn't had anything for at least a few days. I just did a sort of Monte-Carlo test, by switching mirrors in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and suddenly got a whole load of updates.
Well... we dont have so much mirrors so a monte carlo sampling is
needed, we can do it in a deterministic way....
Indeed :-) That's just me trying to get an indicative result to show there's something to investigate. Or laziness. Probably that, actually.
I use reflector for this, its choose mirrors by "updatedness", and can sort using rankmirrors
Thanks for the tip. Pete.
