From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I also have AMD and do updates regularly and didn't have this issue, but I think the problem is pretty apparent and has been for quite some time. Packman repository should not be used by non-knowledgeable users! I am not exactly sure what that means for daily use, but as seen here it creates issues if you are not aware what an update actually does or just press "yes, yes, yes" to all questions in an update process.

In regards to plymouth I have no clue, but it seems this should be easily manageable by booting into a previous snapshot?
