[solved] gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict

Hi! Today i got this:

# pacman -Su
:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict. Remove gcc-libs-multilib? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: gcc-multilib: requires gcc-libs-multilib=4.7.0-6

it wants to remove the gcc-libs-multilib, but can't?!

How to resolve this?

Thanks

Is the multilib repo still enabled in your pacman.conf?

I had this too, this was simply caused by the older version of gcc-libs-multilib still being in [community-testing]. Wait for your mirror to resync or choose another mirror.

Should we disable it? Why?

Re: [solved] gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict

from the pacman.conf:

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the multilib repositories as required here.

[multilib]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

my error was that i forgot a # in front of the [multilib] part and i didn't see it.
