System UPDATE PROBLEM (qtmod ...)

Hi guys,

If I want to update my system with help of

sudo pacman -Syu

there comes following

:: Synchronizing package databases...

What should I do now?

What mirror are you using? I see qtmod as version 4.5.3-2 on http://archlinux.puzzle.ch/kdemod

Hi,

I use http://ftp.uni-bayreuth.de/linux/archlinux/ as my mirror...

In post title you say you have qtmod, are you still using kdemod packages? If yes, then there should be another mirror with the kdemod stuff (including qtmod). If no, then you should install the qt package from extra.

It might be helpful to post your whole pacman.conf just so we can be sure how things are setup

Yes, I use kdemod and I thought that kdemod uses qtmod.. So u say that my current mirror doesn|t have any kdemod stuff?

OK then I'll try your mirror..

here is the pacman.conf

#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives
#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
# The following paths are commented out with their default values listed.
# If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths.
#RootDir = /
#DBPath = /var/lib/pacman/
#CacheDir = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
#LogFile = /var/log/pacman.log
HoldPkg = pacman glibc
# If upgrades are available for these packages they will be asked for first
SyncFirst = pacman
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl %u > %o
# Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of IgnoreGroup
IgnorePkg = qt
#IgnoreGroup =
#NoUpgrade =
#NoExtract =
# Misc options (all disabled by default)
#NoPassiveFtp
#UseSyslog
#ShowSize
#UseDelta
#TotalDownload
#
# REPOSITORIES
# - can be defined here or included from another file
# - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
# - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
# - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
# have identical names, regardless of version number
# - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
# [repo-name]
# Server = ServerName
# Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#
# Testing is disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the following
# two lines. You can add preferred servers immediately after the header,
# and they will be used before the default mirrors.
#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
Server=ftp://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
[extra]
Server=ftp://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
[community]
Server=ftp://ftp.uni-bayreuth.de/pub/linux/archlinux/community/os/i686
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
# An example of a custom package repository. See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.

You could add "d" to the "pacman -Syu" command (-Syud) to ignore dependencies.

I myself use the http://chakra-project.org/repo/

You might also want to re-read the installation instructions, you don't have any of the kdemod repos in your pacman.conf, instead it looks like your replaced the community repo with it. See http://chakra-project.org/download-kdem … -ntnu.html for what I mean. You should probably switch the community one back and instead set up your repos as the link says to.

Yeah you need to have at least the kdemod-core section in your pacman.conf. I think Jac was a little mistaken, you still need to have community working too since some kdemod packages depend on things from community.

Also there's a few different mirrors that have the kdemod packages, the instructions on the link jac gave are for the one in Norway. You may want to check if one of the others is faster for you at this page http://chakra-project.org/download-kdemod-step2.html
