Re: [solved]cant upgrade my system with pacman!

rm /usr/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1[

?
To be honest I have no idea why it appeard, but probably this file changed package where it is.
I would just remove that, and -Syu again

Re: [solved]cant upgrade my system with pacman!

Do you have the slightest idea how many times this issue has been reported?
Maybe that should help : http://bbs.archlinux.org/search.php?search_id=109858522
(yay, there is a search feature, unbelievable !!)

Re: [solved]cant upgrade my system with pacman!

Yeah, this error has occured before for various users, though I can't find the threads. It's fine to remove it.

edit: oops, that was slow. hmm, that first link doesn't come up with anything for me.

Start your own thread rather than tacking this on to the end of another.  that way you might actually get an answer...

Which is a little hit-and-miss, unfortunately.

A forum search on "nvidia-utils" works. However, searching on these returns zilch:

libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1
libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so
libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic
libXvMCNVIDIA

And searching for "/usr/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1" returns lots of false matches.

Now I remember I did hit-and-miss a bit, so I cheated tongue
After two or tree tries I tried the whole line which worked well.
