Updating CachyOS

CachyOS is a rolling release distribution. This means that everytime a new package update is released, it will become available inside the repositories after a very short period of time. All the user needs to do is update the system through pacman. If there is a manual adjustment required, we notify users via Social Media or pacman.

We have integrated a function to fetch an update message inside pacman. This needs to be confirmed by the user before updating their system. Once confirmed, this message will not appear anymore when updating.

pacman

pacman is the ONLY suggested method to update your system. Use following command to update your system:

sudo pacman -Syu
