remove infinality and back to official freetype2 [SOLVED]

Hello all,

How do the above task correctly?

 ☁  ~  sudo pacman -S lib32-fontconfig fontconfig
rozwiązywanie zależności…
szukanie sprzecznych pakietów...
:: fontconfig konfliktuje z fontconfig-infinality-ultimate. Usunąć fontconfig-infinality-ultimate? [t/N] t
:: lib32-fontconfig konfliktuje z lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate. Usunąć lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate? [t/N] t
błąd:  nie udało się przygotować transakcji (nie udało się rozwiązać zależności)
:: lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate: usuwanie lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate zależność przerw 'lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate'
 

I have this infinality packages

 ☁  ~  sudo pacman -Q | grep infinality
cairo-infinality-ultimate 1.14.6-2
fontconfig-infinality-ultimate 2.11.95-4
freetype2-infinality-ultimate 2.6.3-4
lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate 1.14.6-2
lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate 2.11.95-1
lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate 2.6.3-3 

When I removed those packages by the command:

pacman -Rdd ...

And install:

sudo pacman -S lib32-fontconfig fontconfig

The system does not start.

How to properly go to the official freetype2?

Best regards

Paste output in English: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … s_and_code

sudo pacman -S fontconfig freetype2 lib32-whatever

and accept the replacements.

Re: remove infinality and back to official freetype2 [SOLVED]

You should be able to do this from a TTY if you've broken your X setup with your 'pacman -Rdd' command.

Note that pacman told you what was blocking the transaction:

:: lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate: usuwanie lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate zależność przerw 'lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate'

lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate was complaining, so needed to be replaced by lib32-cairo. Read the output that pacman gives you, it's not there for decoration.

Yes, that is fine.

The trick is that pacman can resolve the conflicts itself, safely, but only if you replace them all at once.

Thanks for the help.
Fonts look ok - not perfect but acceptably.

Only VLC has a ugly fonts.
