broken .conf files
Ive been trying your post 3-4 times. Now when I do sudo eopkg up messege appears thag says
updating repositories
updating repository: Solus
Program terminated.
Could not fetch destination file "https://mirrors.rit.edu/solus/packkages/shannon/eopkg-index.xml.xz.sha1sum": [Errno 14] curl#6 - "Could not resolve host
: mirrors.rit.edu"
before sudo eopkg up was fine
Maasi the gist of my post was manually uninstalling/installing half the broken packages in tty, led me to finally being able to use the grep broken command. The packages, need to run the danged command I had somehow ripped out. Somehow that diligence got me to the operating system...
....as to your question, stalling out at RIT is not uncommon during update. It is 100% cured by trying it again until it sticks. Keep trying it will update.
thank you everyone, you guys are did great. Thanks for the all replies.
