gcc (12.1.0-2) breaks dependency

Hi,  i've an issue upgrading my system:

when i do a
$ pacman -Syu

i get

:: 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...
:: Replace qemu with extra/qemu-desktop? [Y/n] Y
:: Replace qemu-arch-extra with extra/qemu-emulators-full? [Y/n] Y
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing gcc (12.1.0-2) breaks dependency 'gcc=11.2.0-4' required by gcc-d

How to overcome this one?

Re: gcc (12.1.0-2) breaks dependency

Where does the package gcc-d come from? It isn't in the official repos or the AUR.


No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

"Truncated" copy/paste? gcc-docs?

Thanks. I forgot that split packages didn't show up in the packages web search frontend.

They do, just not the deleted ones wink

I think your only option is to remove gcc-d, as it's no longer in the repositories.

Right - I did, system upgrade is running currently.  But result is that we've lost gdc (gcc-d) now without any replacement.

For current development stuff it is not that nice. Maybe there were reasons to use gdc instead of dmd - now it looks like D developers are pushed back to dmd (as long as gdc will not be available). Don't think this is valuable for the future of gdc. But, anyway, that is not to be discussed here on a distro's forum, thats stuff for a gcc forum.

Thanks guys, i felt i had to remove gdc, too.

gcc-d may come back now the cause of the build failure has been determined https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/74720

gdc is still available, just not on arch linux.
gdc is now itself written in d, so building a new gdc compiler would require an older gdc.
