a pacman -Su produced the following warnings today:
warning: glibc: local (2.29-1.26) is newer than core (2.29-1.3)
warning: libjpeg-turbo: local (2.0.2-1.1) is newer than extra (2.0.2-1.0)
warning: libutil-linux: local (2.33.2-1.2) is newer than core (2.33.2-1.1)
warning: libxml2: local (2.9.9-2.3) is newer than extra (2.9.9-2.0)Are these really downgrades or are they package naming issues?

Have you disabled the testing repos recently? I note that in my testing repo there's a libxml2 -2.3 which I have installed but only a -2.0 in extra.
The glibc looks like it could be caused by moving to pentium4. My old archived i686 copy is -1.26 but my installed pentium4 copy is -1.3. Run 'pacman-conf Architecture' to confirm which repos you're currently using. I assume you did follow the instructions posted in news, and ran the pacman -Qqn... command.
Architecture: pentium4, Testing repos: Yes, Hardware: EeePC 901+2GB RAM+OS half on the SD card.

lol. You know what happens when you assume. I didn't realize the pentium4 architecture was happening automatically. Now I see it will if you have the SSE2 hardware. I had specifically changed another system to pentium4, but this one was still on auto and I had not run the pacman commands to change all the packages.

Heh, as long as it's both you and me, I don't mind so much.

I had read the instructions but also didn't realize that the the pentium4 updates were going to happen automatically. So just now I ran the "pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -" on my remote box via ssh, then crossed my fingers and rebooted. It came back up fine.
