[SOLVED] Can't upgrade - libgl and nvidia-utils-beta are in conflict

For the last few days I haven't been able to upgrade, this is the output I have -

looking for inter-conflicts...
:: libgl and nvidia-utils-beta are in conflict. Remove nvidia-utils-beta? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lib32-nvidia-utils: requires nvidia-utils
:: nvidia-beta: requires nvidia-utils-beta=280.11

If I select N instead of Y then I get -

error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: libgl and nvidia-utils-beta are in conflict

I don't want to start removing packages randomly to try and persuade it to work, because I know how finicky the Nvidia drivers can be and I don't want to break my install.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't upgrade - libgl and nvidia-utils-beta are in conflict

well, if you don't know how to handle this, why do you use nvidia-utils-beta?


pacman -Rdd nvidia nvidia-utils

pacman -Syu nvidia


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't upgrade - libgl and nvidia-utils-beta are in conflict

I use the beta Nvidia driver to a fix a bug with icons in Gnome Shell.

So I used pacman -Rdd nvidia-beta nvidia-utils-beta. I'll reinstall them after I manage to fix this. However, I still get this error when I use pacman -Syu nvidia or pacman -Syu -

looking for inter-conflicts...
warning: removing 'libgl' from target list because it conflicts with 'nvidia-utils'
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: ati-dri: requires libgl=7.11
:: mach64-dri: requires libgl=7.11
[theo@think ~]$ sudo pacman -Rdd ati-dri
error: 'ati-dri': target not found
[theo@think ~]$ sudo pacman -Rdd mach64-dri
error: 'mach64-dri': target not found
[theo@think ~]$ 

The packages that it complains about were installed, but I have since removed them.

Ahh, thanks for that. I looked through the output and it looks like the problem came from the package lib32-nvidia-utils.

I removed it and all is working well so far.

Thanks for the help.
