Thanks, this is my thought too, that's why I add those repos at the end of the list. So if there should e.g. be a broken codec in "nightly" it won't be installed, if there already is this codec in "production". I guess a broken "studio" app won't break the complete Arch install, but perhaps "mate" could cause issues regarding to GTK libs, that are able to break the complete install. Regards, Ralf
