qt conflicts with qtmod

Hello,

I've installed kdemod, and today I've tried to upgrade my system, but I just get this:

# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 kdemod-core is up to date
 kdemod-extragear is up to date
 archlinuxfr is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: qt conflicts with qtmod. Remove qtmod? [Y/n]

If I say yes, qtmod can't be unnistalled because of package dependency, and if I say no, system is not upgraded. I'm a newbie using arch, so I'm not sure about what to do. I googled but no look, I didn't found any solution.

Any ideas? Thank you in advance

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

I've never used kdemod, but it doesn't look like you're supposed to have qt.  Are you sure you did step 1?

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

pacman is trying to install an updated version of qt as a requirement for another package, but it doesn't know/realize that qtmod has also been updated. Try:

pacman -S qtmod

...first, then try a full update afterwards.

If it still fails, it's possible that your kdemod repository hasn't updated their version of qtmod yet, but they should soon.

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

I have the same exact issue also... Tried your suggestion but didn't work either...Guess we'll have to wait for the KDEmod team updates?  ^^

Any other workarounds?

On my pacman database, qt is not installed qtmod is installed instead. So why is it pacmans shows that qt needs to replace qtmod when upgrading? sad

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

It looks like qtmod needs to be updated.  There will be a package somewhere on you system requiring qt>4.4.3 which qtmod will not satisfy.  pacman then tries replacing qtmod with qt but something on your system requires qtmod so you have problems...

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

Btw: there is no need for qtmod anyway since it contains the same as the qt package from extra.

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

Is there a tool that can map out dependency issues like this?

It took me some figuring to find out that its a simple issue (wish colours were easy to copy/paste from terminal into here). A dependency tree of sorts would've made the following a whole lot easier.
(I had to open the man pages in a separate terminal to figure out how to get this info from pacman/yaourt)

brendan@watricky:~$ yaourt -Syu

Re: qt conflicts with qtmod

The problem is gone. A "pacman -Syu" after a while, and as soon as kdemod repos were updated everything went fine.

Thank you for your replies.
