BINGO!
In fact I got a full 5x5 card of bingo because I wrote “Manjaro doesn’t renew its cert” in all of the boxes.
At this point… Why aren’t Linux users tracking the certificate and notify them?

Or caddy that does it automatically
But of course it’s more complex than that in significantly distributed environments

Yep… Validation of my decision to cachyos after my last drive needed surgery.

This is literally why I stopped using Manjaro.
I’ve botched 2 Manjaro installs just doing a
pacman -Syuwhile their certs were expired and I ended up with an incomplete upgrade.Never once had this issue with EndeavorOS.

Why isn’t this an automated processs for them?
Because
manjaro.orgis controlled personally by Phil, the CEO of the company, who’s paranoid about letting anybody else handle it. And also can’t figure out how to renew automatically, apparently. People have to remind him on Discord. 🤦Everything else
*.manjaro.org(forums, mirrors etc.) is handled by different people and have never expired afaik.It’s literally just the main webpage that has this problem, everything else about the distro is never impacted.

This came up last time the cert expired iirc.
Tl;dr one of the founders is holding up the infra not allowing any change. According to someone who worked on Manjaro, it was trivially easy to get this fixed, but that single person simply wouldn’t approve it. Last I checked they sent the founder an ultimatum: either hand over the project or see the staff walk. I suppose the staff walked.

I thought this was an anniversary of a funny event that happened one time type of meme. But no. It has happened NINE TIMES, including today.

some iconic duos in the Linux community: Arch and AUR malware, Ubuntu and bad updates, NixOS and community/team members leaving, Manjaro and failing to renew its cert.
Bruh what? I went to debian for server because of stability. It only updates like once a decade and still ships broken packages?

Its intended behavior from Debian team. because they ships a version of the software at the time and only backport security patches. So if the version they ship has bugs then those bugs stay for years. This generates quite a bit of noise for upstream projects but it is what it is.
