You could also open the Pop! Shop, have it load, freeze and then upgrade via terminal. They should really fix that shit

Is there a reason these commands weren’t at some point combined into one flag?

I can see why you’d want separate “update” and “upgrade” options, but another flag that does both without writing such a long command would be nice.

Maybe I just don’t know enough about apt and such a flag does exist? Maybe they’re just expecting folks to create an alias?

Maybe for a server - regularly update the package list and compile a list of packages needed to be upgraded. Then send the list to an admin and let them do the update, so that it isn’t unattended.

Quick question: Why are all saying that upgrading via -Syu is risky? I use arch for 3 weeks now and I always upgraded via paru -Syu and I never had problems with it.

A command line utility to manage AUR (Arch Linux User Repository) packages. The AUR contains about any imaginable package on Earth, it’s one of the greatest features of Arch. If you need some app, someone probably already packaged it in the AUR, so you don’t have to handle a manual update.
AUR helpers allow installing and updating both official Arch packages and AUR packages with a single command.
Another popular one that I use is yay.
