Update Manager Not Working Correctly


I installed Manjaro KDE 18.1.3 just over a week ago and have it set up perfectly. I have all my settings in place, all the software I'm interested in is installed. My issue is I went to install the Tor browser by downloading from their site, but it would not download. I then attempted to install Tor using git and it errored out. Since then I had a update to Vivaldi-Snapshot and to KSmooth dock that didn't finish updating. From what I can see everything is working great except for Update Manager. I've no idea how to rectify this issue. If more than what I've posted below is need please just let me know. Thanks

Manjaro is based on arch, a rolling release.
To bring the machine up to date
Code:
pacman -Syu
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman

tor is in the arch repo
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=tor

tor-browser is in the AUR
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tor-browser/

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Tor

If you are going to build software, I advise you to make a PKGBUILD, use makepkg to make a package, then use pacman to install it.

Or use what's in the repo. Don't install software outside of the package manager or you will soon have a mess/broken machine.

i'm aware of what manjaro is based on and the fact that it's a rolling release. tor may be in the repo, but is is still strongly suggested to download and install it from the tor site. when i tried to install via konsole it failed with two different commands straight from the manjaro community. vivaldi-snapshot that should of updated from the one repo i added to pacmam.conf didn't. as for building software i try to avoid that. the only reason i grabbed the vivaldi-snapshot repo from the vivaldi forums and the install commands for tor from the manjaro forums was because i believe update manager has an issue. other than that everything is running fantastic. as fast if not faster than my previous kubuntu install, i've got everything i had in kubuntu plus a couple of extras and the disk space used is about 25% less. i just want to find out one way or the other if update manager does or doesn't actually have a issue.

after some back and fourth with members of the manjaro forums looks like this is just a bug in pacam 9.1.1 that's supposedly addressed in 9.2 a error message where there is actually no error.
