Re: [SOLVED] Cannot install any package thru pacman

Thank God, everything is fixed now:

First, I deleted all these files, then i follows the following procedure

1. For libgexiv2 file i upgraded 'xorg-server, xorg-xinit, xorg-utils, xorg-server-utils' from pacman

# pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-utils xorg-server-utils

2. For libraw file i upgraded 'libraw' from pacman

# pacman -S libraw

There will be some conflicting files
After deleting some conflicting files it solves the problem and restore all the 'lib' file.
