[ACTUALIZACIÓN] #ARCHLINUX. iptables now defaults to the nft backend

Arch Linux: Recent news updates

The latest and greatest news from the Arch Linux distribution.

iptables now defaults to the nft backend Apr 5th 2026, 20:28 The old iptables-nft package name is replaced by iptables, and the legacy backend is available as iptables-legacy. When switching packages (among iptables-nft, iptables, iptables-legacy), check for .pacsave files in /etc/iptables/ and restore your rules if needed: /etc/iptables/iptables.rules.pacsave /etc/iptables/ip6tables.rules.pacsave Most setups should work unchanged, but users relying on uncommon xtables extensions or legacy-only behavior should test carefully and use iptables-legacy if required.   https://archlinux.org/news/iptables-now-defaults-to-the-nft-backend/

[ACTUALIZACIÓN] #ARCHLINUX. NVIDIA 590 driver drops Pascal support; main packages switch to Open Kernel Modules

Arch Linux: Recent news updates

The latest and greatest news from the Arch Linux distribution.

NVIDIA 590 driver drops Pascal support; main packages switch to Open Kernel Modules Dec 20th 2025, 19:53 With the update to driver version 590, the NVIDIA driver no longer supports Pascal (GTX 10xx) GPUs or older. We will replace the nvidia package with nvidia-open, nvidia-dkms with nvidia-open-dkms, and nvidia-lts with nvidia-lts-open. Impact: Updating the NVIDIA packages on systems with Pascal, Maxwell, or older cards will fail to load the driver, which may result in a broken graphical environment. Intervention required for Pascal/older users: Users with GTX 10xx series and older cards must switch to the legacy proprietary branch to maintain support: Uninstall the official nvidia, nvidia-lts, or nvidia-dkms packages. Install nvidia-580xx-dkms from the AUR Users with Turing (20xx and GTX 1650 series) and newer GPUs will automatically transition to the open kernel modules on upgrade and require no manual intervention.   https://archlinux.org/news/nvidia-590-driver-drops-pascal-support-main-packages-switch-to-open-kernel-modules/

[ACTUALIZACIÓN] #ARCHLINUX. waydroid >= 1.5.4-3 update may require manual intervention

Arch Linux: Recent news updates

The latest and greatest news from the Arch Linux distribution.

waydroid >= 1.5.4-3 update may require manual intervention Nov 6th 2025, 01:35 The waydroid package prior to version 1.5.4-2 (including aur/waydroid) creates Python byte-code files (.pyc) at runtime which were untracked by pacman. This issue has been fixed in 1.5.4-3, where byte-compiling these files is now done during the packaging process. As a result, the upgrade may conflict with the unowned files created in previous versions. If you encounter errors like the following during the update: error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/__pycache__/__init__.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/actions/__pycache__/__init__.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/actions/__pycache__/app_manager.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem You can safely overwrite these files by running the following command: pacman -Syu --overwrite /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/\*__pycache__/\*   https://archlinux.org/news/waydroid-154-3-update-may-require-manual-intervention/

Arch Linux: Recent news updates

The latest and greatest news from the Arch Linux distribution.

dovecot >= 2.4 requires manual intervention Oct 31st 2025, 22:20 The dovecot 2.4 release branch has made breaking changes which result in it being incompatible with any <= 2.3 configuration file. Thus, the dovecot service will no longer be able to start until the configuration file was migrated, requiring manual intervention. For guidance on the 2.3-to-2.4 migration, please refer to the following upstream documentation: Upgrading Dovecot CE from 2.3 to 2.4 Furthermore, the dovecot 2.4 branch no longer supports their replication feature, it was removed. For users relying on the replication feature or who are unable to perform the 2.4 migration right now, we provide alternative packages available in [extra]: dovecot23 pigeonhole23 dovecot23-fts-elastic dovecot23-fts-xapian The dovecot 2.3 release branch is going to receive critical security fixes from upstream until stated otherwise.   https://archlinux.org/news/dovecot-24-requires-manual-intervention/
