Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

So I can't update my system until this is fixed. The messages about files already existing gives me the impression that pacman wasn't expecting those to be there as if freetype shouldn't be installed but 'pacman -Qi freetype2' says:

[userx@BattlestationA aur_packages]$ pacman -Qi freetype2

I do python dev so I was wondering if I hadn't installed through pip or pip2, but neither one return that I have.

'Pacman -Ss freetype2' returns something interesting though:

[userx@BattlestationA aur_packages]$ pacman -Ss freetype
extra/freetype2 2.6.1-1 [installed: 2.6-2]
    TrueType font rendering library
extra/libxft 2.3.2-1 [installed]
    FreeType-based font drawing library for X
multilib/lib32-freetype2 2.6.1-1 [installed: 2.6-1]
    TrueType font rendering library (32-bit)
multilib/lib32-libxft 2.3.2-1 [installed]
    FreeType-based font drawing library for X (32-bit)

The extra repo has freetype at 2.6.1-1 and I have 2.6-2


Seeing I have not installed freetype2 from elsewhere (pip or other), I am at a bit of loss. Can someone recommend a course of action?


Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED] freetype won't update

Have you checked whether the files really are owned by the existing freetype2 installation?

pacman -Qo /usr/include/freetype2/freetype

then

pacman -Ql freetype2

Re: [SOLVED] freetype won't update

It's the second time i had this issue with harfbuzz. I solved this by ignoring the conflicting packages from the update:

sudo pacman -Syu --ignore harfbuzz,lib32-harfbuzz

After the update(s) succeed, you could install/update the formerly ignored files:

sudo pacman -S lib32-harfbuzz 
sudo pacman -S harfbuzz

Sending your first one returns something not too interesting:

[userx@BattlestationA ~]$ pacman -Qo /usr/include/freetype2/freetype
error: No package owns /usr/include/freetype2/freetype

but I thought there was one too many freetype in there anyways...so I ran:

[userx@BattlestationA ~]$ pacman -Qo /usr/include/freetype2/
/usr/include/freetype2/ is owned by freetype2 2.6-2

Ignoring harfbuzz and lib32-harfbuzz is not sufficient. It fails when upgrading freetype2.

Should freetype2, lib32-freetype2 be added to the ignore list? If so in what order so they be updated after everything else?

I just read the two links. Now on the wiki pacman page it says to run -Qo which I have and it says that the files are owned by the freetype2 package. The wiki then says that if the files are really owned by the real package (which they are in my case), I can rename them (the folder) and run the upgrade.

Am I correct?

Re: [SOLVED] freetype won't update

Are you certain -Qo says that? Make sure to enter the entire path exactly as pacman reports it.

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

So.....the update wants to write to /usr/include/freetype2/freetype
which doesn't belong to any one or package
/usr/include/freetype2 belongs to package freetype2
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype which causes all these issues is nothing but a symlink.....

Re: [SOLVED] freetype won't update

The old freetype2 package had its files directly in /usr/include/freetype2, whereas the new one puts them in /usr/include/freetype2/freetype¹.

Now, for some obscure reason, /usr/include/freetype2/freetype already exists on your system, and pacman can't upgrade the package, because removing the old package wouldn't result in a clean file tree.

___
¹ At least that's what I get from looking at the old package in my package cache. I'm just guessing here.

Re: [SOLVED] freetype won't update

I just unlinked /usr/include/freetype2/freetype and upgraded....all is well in the world now.


Thank you everyone!
