I can install ok and it will start up, and soon will message updates are available, and as soon as I install the updates from software manager or from console, my pinephone will give a bunch of error messages but not boot anymore.
Is KDE Plasma mobile abanoned by Manjaro, or does nobody care about?

thank you, is it correct we do
Code:
sudo pacman -S qt5-base qt5-declarative qt5-multimedia pyside2
before doing
sudo pacman -Syyu?
Best is probably to do it after the -Syu and before rebooting. Or even after rebooting if you can manage to enter text mode and enter the command using a physical keyboard (since you cannot get into Plasma Mobile).

problem is, after rebooting I can't get to open terminal as the system stalls completely after displaying thes error messages.
With a physical keyboard, you can probably switch to a text-mode vterm using Ctrl+Alt+F2 or the same with some other F-key.

But the easiest solution is to swap the packages between the -Syu and the reboot.

guess I will just wait then.. Doing -Syu means we update which is followed by a automatic reboot, so I can't swap packages in that moment, unless I was wrong. I will try that again now, who knows.
The update should not automatically reboot. Do not use Discover to update, it is just generally broken on Arch and Manjaro (except for Flatpaks). If you do the update on the CLI (with pacman or pamac) or with pamac-gtk, it will not reboot without asking you.
