How to add (working) repositories to pacman.conf?
Hello!
This is may pacman.conf:
Do NOT touch this file.
This file will be overwritten on the next upgrade.
[options]
HoldPkg = pacman glibc
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl -L -C - -f -o %o %u
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
#CleanMethod = KeepInstalled
Architecture = auto
Color
ParallelDownloads = 60

Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[chaotic-aur]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/chaotic-mirrorlist
But, when I try to update the repositoires , this is the result:
$ sudo pacman -Syyu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core downloading...
extra downloading...
:: Starting full system upgrade...
there is nothing to do
In other terms, only core and extra repositories are working.
I discovered this problem trying to install yay that needs the multilib repository.

you cannot add custom repos to the host
you can add custom repos to an arch container
but not on the host
nano.<arch_container_name> /etc/pacman.conf
also it says do not edit this file you bozo
and don't install yay to the host
future builds will enable multilib on the host thoYou are un arrogant man, BOZO! IK
I know to read english. I took the risk consciously because, with his imperfections, BlendOS is not be yet my principal OS. Did you understand, IDIOT!!!
if it says don't edit why were you trying to edit it
Example for grub.conf. It says "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE". I have edited many times this file to solve a problem of identification of other OS. I could have done it using osprober. In any case, I hadn't any problem.
But, I repeat it a second time, for now BlendOS is not my principal OS and, for this, I can take some risk. I am testing it.
well this is the system pacman.conf
you're not supposed to touch that
