[solved] koffice-plugins and koffice-kchart are in conflict

When trying to update the latest koffice, the following appears:

:: koffice-plugins and koffice-kchart are in conflict. Remove koffice-kchart? [y/N] N
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: koffice-plugins and koffice-kchart are in conflict

Looking at the package versions shows that kchart isn't updated:

koffice-plugins 2.3.0-1
koffice-kchart 2.2.2-4

So, should I just remove kchart? I didn't find any announcement that it isn't needed anymore...

From the koffice pkgbuild

package_koffice-plugins(){
    pkgdesc="Plugins for the KDE office suite"
    depends=('koffice-libs')
    replaces=('koffice-kchart')
        cd ${srcdir}/build/plugins
        make DESTDIR=${pkgdir} install

In other words it replaces kchart so you should be ok to remove it

yes, you should remove it. Some parts have been moved to plugins, the application is disabled for now. See [1].

I deleted kchart. It isn't in the repos anymore.
Marked as solved
