[BUG] Installing mate-extra gives a package conflict

marcs · 2014-03-19 23:27:16

When i try to install the group of packages called mate-extra like this:

pacman -S mate-extra

(I'm choosing to install all the packages)

I got the error message that caja-extensions-common and caja-extensions are conflicting.

Looks weird cause i don't have either of these packages installed.

Wanted to say here on the forums cause i don't know if others has my same problem... if so i guess can be a bug of some PKGBUILD...

Thank you.

[edit]
I see also another conflict between galculator-gtk2 and mate-calc.

My suggestion is to replace caja-extensions with caja-extensions-common/install caja-extensions-common first and then try again.

This is because caja-extensions is being replaced with caja-extensions-common.

Likewise, mate-calc is being replaced with galculator: http://mate-desktop.org/blog/2014-03-17 … g-to-mate/

The same applies for mate-bluetooth when that happens: http://mate-desktop.org/blog/2014-03-11 … the-bluez/

Likewise, mate-calc is being replaced with galculator: Galculator is coming to MATE

clfarron4, do you think a bug report is in order? If so, can you please open it? You seem to know something about mate, unlike me.
I've always thought it was a kind of tea ;P

Yes please if someone che open some bug report or tell me where to notify the developers it'd be great.

Thank you

[edit]

Thank you clfarron4, it does work now. But i got now conflict between: galculator-gtk2 and mate-calc.
These packages are both in the same list (mate-extra) and conflicting.

So i guess it's a bug of the package, but thats weird cause galculator-gtk2 is not part of the meta-extra group:

  cd "${pkgbase}-${pkgver}/gtk2"

You can't install the whole mate-extra group, you have to exclude package number 2, 12 and 14:

$ sudo pacman -S mate-extra
:: There are 23 members in group mate-extra:
:: Repository community
   1) atril  2) caja-extensions  3) caja-gksu  4) caja-image-converter  5) caja-open-terminal
   6) caja-sendto  7) caja-share  8) engrampa  9) eom  10) galculator-gtk2  11) mate-applets
   12) mate-calc  13) mate-icon-theme-faenza  14) mate-media-pulseaudio  15) mate-netspeed
   16) mate-power-manager  17) mate-screensaver  18) mate-sensors-applet  19) mate-system-monitor
   20) mate-terminal  21) mate-utils  22) mozo  23) pluma

Enter a selection (default=all): ^2 ^12 ^14

Install galculator-gtk2 and caja-extensions-common first.

^ That.

I've reported this as this bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39548

EDIT: This bug has hopefully been resolved by removing the old mate-calc and [the other one] packages

ok clfarron4, I've added the solved tag to the title.

Thanks to everyone!

It's still not solved:

$ sudo pacman -S mate-extra

   12) mate-media-pulseaudio  13) mate-netspeed  14) mate-power-manager  15) mate-screensaver
   16) mate-sensors-applet  17) mate-system-monitor  18) mate-terminal  19) mate-user-share

Picking he second option, mate-settings-daemon-pulseaudio, works.

Ok i deleted the solved tag

karol · 2014-03-20 18:53:28

I opened a new bug report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39558

karol · 2014-03-21 23:04:11

The bug's severity has been lowered to 'Very Low' so it may not be fixed for some time.
You can mark the thread as solved if you like, as the conflict you reported has been fixed.
