Hi all,
Since yesterday I experience the following upgrade issue :
# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
home_bekun_devel_Arch_Extra is up to date
multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace python-dbus with extra/dbus-python? [Y/n] Y
:: Replace python-dbus-common with extra/dbus-python? [Y/n] Y
warning: xcalib: local (0.10-5) is newer than community (0.10-3)
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
:: dbus-python and python2-dbus are in conflict. Remove python2-dbus? [y/N] N
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: dbus-python and python2-dbus are in conflict
If I give to questions the proposed answers : 'Y', 'Y' then 'N', the upgrade breaks. To overcome this issue I must answer 'n' to the first two questions.
Do you have some advice ?

You must replace python2-dbus so you should answer Yes if you want to update..

Tanks for your answer. I have followed your recommendation. Then :
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace python-dbus with extra/dbus-python? [Y/n] Y
:: Replace python-dbus-common with extra/dbus-python? [Y/n] Y
warning: xcalib: local (0.10-5) is newer than community (0.10-3)
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
:: dbus-python and python2-dbus are in conflict. Remove python2-dbus? [y/N] Y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing python2-dbus breaks dependency 'python2-dbus' required by key-mon
:: removing python2-dbus breaks dependency 'python2-dbus' required by wicd
I could probably suppress key-mon (useful in some situations) but I am not sure for wicd (although it is disabled on my system according systemctl).
Other suggestions ?

I removed key-mon and wicd then can upgrade.
Thanks.

The same happened to me. Answer to third question (Remove python2-dbus ?) should be Y.
Fortunately I didn't have to remove any dependencies thus upgrade run smoothly.
Thanks B7H7D7.
