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.

reading "Build Files Exist" seems to suggest the package already exists, but it's not, I think.

So what is "CleanBuild" and what do the options mean: [N]one [A]ll [Ab]ort [I]nstalled [No]t Installed

And is meant by (1 2 3, 1-3, ^4) ?

I wouldn't use manjaro either /s

Jokes aside, everyone's a beginner at some point and you only learn by exploring things that you aren't familiar with

Yeah manjaro is really good for beginners to learn pacman but i would try to install arch first(as its pretty easy bur it teaches you partitions and boot stuff) and then try the aur.
