gcc update breaks with gcc-multilib

What should I do? I cannot just uninstall gcc-multilib as many packages depend on it.

$ $ sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
warning: grml-zsh-config: ignoring package upgrade (0.7.4-1 => 0.8.1-1)
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict. Remove gcc-libs-multilib? [y/N] y
:: gcc and gcc-multilib are in conflict. Remove gcc-multilib? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: libtool-multilib: requires gcc-multilib=4.8.0

Re: gcc update breaks with gcc-multilib

It does this all the time. I suggest removing gcc-multilib while ignoring the dependencies (see man pacman), updating and installing gcc-multilib again. Something is wrong with those updates.

Re: gcc update breaks with gcc-multilib

akurei, i had  the same messages a while ago everytime gcc was updated in extra but multilib lagged behind.

On my system the problem was caused because i had missed replacing a compiler (gcc-objc in my case ) with its multilib counterpart.
As long as gcc-libs-multilib was the same version as gcc-libs everything worked.

I suggest you run pacman -Sl multilib and check if you miss something in that list you do use the multilib version of.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.


(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Re: gcc update breaks with gcc-multilib

After waiting a time the multilib repo seems to have catched up and the update went through without any problems.
Thanks!
