Upgrading/Updating using Pacman

[zetabeta]

now there is some wrong information.

Code:

# updates package lists, does not update anything
$ sudo pacman -Sy
# like previous but deeper, it's needed if local cache is messed up somehow
$ sudo pacman -Syy
# updates the system, however updating package lists are needed
$ sudo pacman -Su
# updates package lists and updates the system
$ sudo pacman -Syu

pacman does not update other package systems, like flatpak, snap and others.

"pamac" can access AUR if that has been used.
