Re: libdbusmenu-glib upgrade error

Looks like you can force install of libdbusmenu-glib, remove libdbusmenu and reinstall libdbusmenu-glib to ensure files didn't go missing in the process. Worked out fine for me (so far...) YMMV

Re: libdbusmenu-glib upgrade error

I tried to remove libdbusmenu but that give me this error?

sudo pacman -R libdbusmenu
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: libdbusmenu-gtk3: requires libdbusmenu

Ok removing libdbusmenu-gtk3 and after libdbusmenu does the trick!

Re: libdbusmenu-glib upgrade error

Take a look at this closed bug report. FS#37483 This is how I fixed it.

Easier, just remove "libdbusmenu".

Re: libdbusmenu-glib upgrade error

After this change appindicator extension for gnome-shell is not working anymore. It was working before the name change. Any idea why?
