[SOLVED] libgl

ryosaeba83 · 2013-04-04 15:20:31

You have to combine both instruction I posted like this:

pacman -Rdd nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils
pacman -S nvidia-libgl lib32-nvidia-libgl
pacman -Su

If i wait, will be this fixed by the packagers, and just upgrade then?

ryosaeba83 · 2013-04-04 16:29:43

I think Svenstaro is trying to solve this and you can try waiting if you prefer so.
The solution I proposed has no drawbacks anyway, but the choice is yours.

zeroadhesion · 2013-04-04 16:30:23

Thank you so much!

ryosaeba83 · 2013-04-04 16:34:30

FWIW I don't think this is a problem in how the packages were created but more a problem in how pacman handles the dependencies.
I'm not sure there is an easy solution to this other then fixing this corner-case in pacman (and that is no easy task).
It's probably worth posting a news for the manual upgrade path.

zeroadhesion · 2013-04-04 16:40:23

If the problem cannot be fixed automatically, i vote for news too.

Mr.Elendig · 2013-04-04 16:45:25

Stop using -Rdd, seriously, it is not needed.

pacman -Syu nvidia-libgl  # and lib32-nvidia-libgl if you used lib32-nvidia-utils

nvidia 313.30-2 which is currently in [testing] includes a workaround (it depends on nvidia-libgl)

Edit: It was just moved to [extra]

Thanks for the update. May I suggest, this is worth a news entry?

Svenstaro · 2013-04-04 17:02:19

I moved a fix to [extra] that should hopefully get rid of this issue at the cost of making the bumblebee package a little more ugly. It's probably worth it. Please note the the lib32-nvidia-utils->lib32-nvidia-libgl upgrade path will only be automatic in pacman 4.1 due to a limitation in pacman 4.0. pacman 4.1 will hopefully move soon.

That is great to hear. Thanks!

Thank you both Mr.Elendig and Svenstaro for the info. That's why i use Arch.

I guess you are right that manually requesting nvidia-libgl fixes the upgrade issue, I did not try it, anyway I don't think -Rdd had any ill effect.

@Svenstaro: nice job with the fix, thanks!

denn1s · 2013-04-04 17:18:08

This helped me as well. +1 for the news entry.

Inxsible · 2013-04-04 17:24:43

people, stop power posting with +1s. Remember it is against the forum rules.

This fixed it for me, much love.

I would like to note, that I had steam installed, and it was conflicting as well.

:: lib32-cairo: requires lib32-libgl
:: lib32-glu: requires lib32-libgl
:: lib32-qt4: requires lib32-libgl

Thanks a lot! I had been googling this issue for like an hour!

However it fails on the pacman -Su step on my end. it just gives me that

:: steam: requires lib32-libgl

Let me try rebooting...

Edit: that went bad.

I had to reinstall the nvidia drivers (pacman -S nvidia)

Even after running "pacman -Rdd nvidia-utils" i still get this.

# pacman -S lib32-libgl
...
   4) lib32-nvidia-libgl

Enter a number (default=1): 4
...
:: lib32-nvidia-libgl and lib32-nvidia-utils are in conflict (lib32-libgl). Remove lib32-nvidia-utils? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lib32-nvidia-libgl: requires lib32-nvidia-utils

Edit 2(Solution):
pacman -Syu lib32-nvidia-libgl

worked for me. Thanks Mr.Elendig

I tried this one and it worked just fine. BTW News was the first place i checked and there was no information about this issue. Multiple users are effected, there really should be an entry in news before forums float with "libgl" posts.

So now pacman lets you "see" only the 64-bit versions, and installs automatically the 32-bit versions of the packages?
It's not very clear to me what happens here.

Thanks though, it's been fixed for me.

edit. Nevermind, I had forgotten to enable multilib in the new pacman.conf. You can ignore the above nonsense, sorry for that.

The upgrade should be completely smooth on pacman 4.1.

Narve · 2013-04-05 07:05:13

nvidia-libgl as a dependency for nvidia/nvidia-utils is broken, because "we bumblebee users" want to use it with mesa-libgl.
can you please make it depend on libgl instead?
same with the multilib-package ofc.

Svenstaro · 2013-04-05 07:08:24

No, bumblebee provides nvidia-libgl for this reason. As per bumblebee wiki, you are meant to install it like so: pacman -Syu bumblebee mesa-libgl nvidia

Submit any bugs to the tracker.

Narve · 2013-04-05 08:08:33

ah, sorry, ok.
didnt check the provide on bumblebee..
nevermind me then.

Thaodan · 2013-04-05 11:55:38

But how get the NVIDIA LibGL when its not bumblebee (see file contents of the package)?

Arch Linux
