[solved] Dependencys and conflicts problemsto upgrade system.

Hello. I'm having some problems to upgrade my system:

 $ sudo pacman -Syuu
Password: 
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra                       1179.3 KiB   170K/s 00:07 [#############################] 100%
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
 community is up to date
 archlinuxfr is up to date
 catalyst is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...

warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: lib32-gcc-libs will be installed before its gcc-libs-multilib dependency
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: kmod and module-init-tools are in conflict. Remove module-init-tools? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: catalyst-total: requires linux<3.2
:: gcc-fortran: requires gcc=4.6.2-5

I googled about that kmod conflict, didn't find if its safe or not to remove module-init-tools, but whatever i say there, I cant upgrade.

uname -r gives me 3.1.9-2-ARCH, and 3.1 is smaller than 3.2. Why that depency problem??

my gcc version is 4.6.2 20111223 (prerelease)

I had to remove yaourt to be able to upgrade pacman and I havent installed it back yet.

DO you know how to solve this problem???

Gratefull,
Heitorpb

That gives you the version that is currently *running*. Given that [core] is up to date, however, you must have installed 3.2.1.

I assume you have not rebooted since the kernel upgrade. I don't know if this would be the only cause of the problems, but I'm sure it's part of it. Reboot, and retry.

wait couples of hours before upgrading for the "conflict" issue to be fixed. The second part is just catalyst

Well, I rebooted before I started this post, to be sure of this...
still Linux 3.1.9-2-ARCH

Do you have any ideas to solve this?

wrt gcc-fortran conflict, have you read https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 1#p1026351 ?

Oh, I havent read this post, thanks Karol!
It solved the gcc problem, but I still see the catalyst-total problem...

I reinstalled yaourt and tried yaourt -Syua --devel to upgrade catalyst-total, but it still fails:

$ yaourt -Syua --devel
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
 community is up to date
 archlinuxfr is up to date
 catalyst is up to date
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: catalyst-total: requires linux<3.2
==> upgrading SVN/CVS/HG/GIT package

and:

$ uname -r
3.1.9-2-ARCH

I'll try to reinstall catalyst-total.

edit: catalyst-total reinstalled and the system is now up to date!
Thank you for help!! ;D
