New features
TUI has been reworked and now uses curses, which allows us to do more complex layouts as well as give a new but familiar look and feel. Huge effort by @svartkanin in #2663

No, you are never specifying to actually upgrade the package with the ‘u’ flag. Running pacman -Sy archinstall would upgrade the package, since it would first refresh the package cache then reinstall the latest version.
Also, there’s not really a benefit to using 2 'y’s but it does add some extra stress to the package mirrors, so I would avoid doing that.
Current Arch ISO is from November 1, so you likely used the old version (unless you used
pacman -Syubefore you used in the installer).Doesn’t pacman Syy before installing it give me the latest version of the script when I’m in the live environment ?
