Failed pacaur update - error: Pull is not possible...

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade some aur packages, but get the following error:

error: Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files.
hint: Fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>'
hint: as appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit.
fatal: Exiting because of an unresolved conflict.

Wondering what is causing this and how I could fix it?

ty!

Re: Failed pacaur update - error: Pull is not possible...

That is a very clear message about what is causing it.  You have unmerged files in your local git repo for some package.  I don't know which package as you have not provided the complete output.

The hint also tells you exactly how to fix this.  I really don't know what else could be said.  If you need help implementing the solution provided, please specify where you are having trouble.

mod note: not an "installation" issue.  Moved to N.C.

So where is this checked out within pacaur and how can I delete it?

This is google-chrome-dev

I have no idea - its your system, didn't you set it up?

README wrote:

CONFIG OPTIONS
The available options are:

clonedir
Define the directory into which the packages build files (PKGBUILD, .SRCINFO and install script files) will be cloned. Default is $AURDEST, with a fallback on /tmp/pacaurtmp-$USER.

Please make an effort to search for and read the documentation yourself.

No, I haven't set it up, but just running with the defaults? Thanks for your help!

That would be a Manjaro install, then?
