/usr/lib/libpci.so problem

Hi,

I am trying to run a bigger update on a few machines today and am encountering the following problem:

Re: /usr/lib/libpci.so problem

1. yaourt -S --aur google-chrome-dev (or -beta if you are using chrome-beta version)
2. yaourt -R libpci
3. yaourt -Syu

Enjoy !

Re: /usr/lib/libpci.so problem

google-chrome doesn't have the libpci dependency anymore so update google-chrome, uninstall libpci, then do a system update again.
