Problem with update

Hi,

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=188426

By tips provided there I solve problem but today it begins one more time. Here is output from terminal:

Re: Problem with update

The KDE5 packages are the problem.  How did you install them?

Re: Problem with update

It was some time ago but most often I use packer and AUR

Re: Problem with update

Well I would first at least backup any critical configuration files [as a precaution] such as ~/.kde4 ~/.config, etc.  then try deleting all the Kf5 packages you have installed from the AUR.  See the Pacman Wiki entry for some basic help. Also this forum topic might have some info to help you see which AUR packages you have installed: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=76218

Then if you want to use kde5 follow the wiki entry here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kde#KDE_5.x and try to resolve any conflicts.

If you want to stay with kde4 then that same page has what you need.

If you still have issues you might just also uninstall all of your kde packages.  The exact commands to do that depend on whether you used groups or meta packages to install but the wiki page above has more info on that.  Your configuration files should be saved when doing this (as long as you don't tell pacman to explicitly remove them) so after you re-install KDE4/5 it should all still be there.

Re: Problem with update

Well... I'm trying to clean that mess but it's not easy. I think that one good idea is to remove all KDE4 and KDE5 packages and then install one more time KDE4. How to remove *all* packages KDE4 and KDE5?
