The painful parts of arch are mostly related to libraries:
- python updates take a while to reach all packages (so they get installed to the wrong site-packages)
- libva updates may be too new for makemkv etc
- qt updates are sometimes problematic as well
To mitigate this, I've been exposing old versions of the libraries to my package-repo
- ex. installing python-311 when python-3.12 became default
Python Upgrades
TL;DR rebuild all python AUR packages, and reinstall.
