[solved] Unresolvable dependencies, system won't update
Trying to update, haven't done it in about two weeks. There's a new version of pacman, and when I attempt to install it it says :
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict. Remove gcc-libs-multilib? [y/N] If I say yes, it goes on to do that :
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: gcc-multilib: requires gcc-libs-multilib=4.6.2-7If I say no, it does this instead :
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflictAfter trying to remove it I realized that gcc-libs was not yet installed on my machine. So I gather it's the newer version and is supposed to replace gcc-libs-multilib. Attempting to remove gcc-libs-multilib manually gives conflicts with pretty much my entire system (the list of conflicting packages is longer than a full-screened terminal). Attempting to remove gcc-multilib gives conflicts with libreoffice-sdk and libtool. However, attempting to remove these two packages throws up a long list of conflicting packages as well. What to do? Force the update?
