[Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

Going through a list of explicitly installed packages, I noticed gvim which I've never used, so I uninstalled it. However, I then couldn't copy/paste to/from the system clipboard. After some searching the reason turned out to be that vim in the vim package doesn't support this. So I reinstall gvim, and am informed that it conflicts with vim. I had just uninstalled gvim. Somehow I had both installed at the same time. I would have thought that "pacman -Qkq", which is in my weekly maintenance script, would have picked up on this issue, but I guess it doesn't (or pacman is broken).

So, my questions are "how did this happen" and "how do I find other conflicts like this one"?

[edit] Note: I'm confident I didn't use pacman -Sf

[edit2] I'm very sorry, the problem is in my head.

I wrote the output of " pacman -Q | awk '{print $1}' " both in my active system and from within a snapshot of my system last Sunday (via chroot). With vimdiff I compared the two and found that I removed both "grsync" and "vi". I'm pretty sure this got mixed up in my head as gvim.

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

If you still have these packages in your cache you may check whether you compiled them yourself / installed from an unofficial repo.
Anyone can create a package named 'gvim' and it will conflict with whatever is put into the 'conflicts' array.

You can use a vim version that supports X clipboard.

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

Vim is working fine now. According to the Arch Wiki I need gvim for what I was trying to do, and that's the package that is currently installed.

No, both were installed with pacman -S at different times. At some point I ran "sudo pacman -S vim" and then another "sudo pacman -S gvim", but a conflict flag was never raised prior to today.

I'm not so much worried about vim, as I am pacman, and my system as a whole.

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

Packages that currently are in the official repo all conflict with each other, so you either haven't fully updated your system in a long while or you have installed a package from an unofficial repo.
vim-minimal vim vim-python3 gvim and gvim-python3 all conflict with each other. Check pacman's log to see what package version did you remove.

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

IIRC, gvim and vim didn't always conflict. But that still doesn't explain how you could have kept gvim around all this time.

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

I run a system upgrade pretty much everyday unless something big shows up in the list like linux or systemd.

And this is what I get with "cat /var/log/pacman.log |grep gvim". Yeah... something is weird. It doesn't even should where I uninstalled it.

That looks right to me...

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

OP says he had both gvim and vim installed, pacman claims otherwise ;P

Re: [Solved] Two conflicting packages installed.

Right. Somewhere it should say that I uninstalled gvim, but it doesn't.

I just chrooted into a snapshot from two weeks ago, and ran "pacman -Qen" which is what I was using when cleaning house earlier. Gvim is not in that list nor in the -Qem list.

I've been running on 3-4 hours of sleep for about 2 weeks. I think I may be having some kind of false memory. I'm going to look at this again tomorrow.

[edit] I'm very sorry, the problem is in my head.

I wrote the output of " pacman -Q | awk '{print $1}' " both in my active system and from within a snapshot of my system last Sunday (via chroot). With vimdiff I compared the two and found that I removed both "grsync" and "vi". I'm pretty sure this got mixed up in my head as gvim.
