I just tried another upgrade with v7.0.1 and the daemon crashed:

Give it another try with 6dd2f8cc. You can try with and without sudo because, with this commit, if you use sudo the system-daemon is not used.

OK, thx for the update. Released as v7.0.1-2 to unstable for now. With sudo it had always worked. Let's see how it is now. I really appreciate your work with pamac. For me one of the best package managers out there.

@guinux cli is now stable, however, it seems the graphical applications pamac-updater and pamac-tray have some issues now. At least pamac-tray is regularly crashing now ...

Fixed
