The bash version is 5.0.7 $ /gnu/store/whkq7f2d702hqnrdd2cqskqxdx267283-profile/bin/bash --version GNU bash, version 5.0.7(1)-release (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) > Why is this happening so often: > /gnu/store/whkq7f2d702hqnrdd2cqskqxdx267283-profile/include/stdlib.h:257:4: > warning: ISO C does not support the ‘_Float64x’ type [-Wpedantic] --pedantic is a GCC flag which causes every non-standard C to raise an error, even though it may be an available extension in GCC. And, -Wpedantic will warn about these deviations from the standard. Despite the errors and warnings, it appears that I have a working pacman. Thanks a lot, Eli. $ pacman --version .--.
