Whenever I try to pacman -Syu i recieve an errror.

dogfoofa · 2024-12-23 15:49:54

Whenever I attempt to update my system with <sudo pacman -Syu> I receive the following error: <hyprutils-0.3.0-1 and hyprutils-git-0.2.3.r3.gfd4be8b9-1 are in conflict. Remove hyprutils-git?> if I type Y I receive <:: removing hyprutils-git breaks dependency 'hyprutils-git' required by hyprcursor-git
:: removing hyprutils-git breaks dependency 'hyprutils-git' required by hyprlang-git>. If I type N I receive: <hyprutils-0.3.0-1 and hyprutils-git-0.2.3.r3.gfd4be8b9-1 are in conflict>. How do I fix this?

You need to either update your foreign packages or replace them with the repos versions. The latter is easiest, just add them to the update command.

Please remove the superfluous 'urgent' from your topic title.

Mod note: moving to AUR Issues.

I'm also facing the issue above and could not find a way to simply replace with the `repo` version.

What package do you want to replace with the repo version? What command have you tried so far and what output has that produced?

Notice that I cannot also remove `hyprland-git`:

```

```

It feels like a deadlock to me.

See #2.

Try, e.g.

pacman -Syu hyprlang

Also, these forums don't support markdown, use bbcode instead: https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

Honestly, I've found the easiest way to fix this is to wait a day or two until everything else catches up. It's been so rare that I've either had to downgrade packages, or suffer bad updates. Unless, of course, you are building out of tree packages, at which point, that's on you.

That is not at all true when packages are from the AUR.

rb12 · 2025-01-03 12:00:31

I'm still facing the issue. Any suggestions on how to overcome it?

Lone_Wolf · 2025-01-03 12:11:30

You have tried wormzy' suggestion in post #7 of this thread ?

rb12 · 2025-01-03 12:26:26

I managed to workaround with a terrible solution:

 
❯ sudo pacman -Rdd hyprutils-git
❯ sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/libhyprutils.so.0.3.1 /usr/lib64/libhyprutils.so.1^C

Sounds very brittle to me but it at least allowed me to continue with my day

Scimmia · 2025-01-03 12:29:12

Seriously people, don't use the AUR if you can't handle simple conflicts or follow simple instructions.

DO NOT DO WHAT rb12 DID.

You misspelled "dumb".

You're keeping older git versions of ovrhyped-stuff around, replace both packages w/ the 0.3 repo version at the same time.
This is also the approach WorMzy suggested and it's a tid-bit offensive to show up with a request for help, get it, but ignore it and then make everyone else watch you punching yourself in the face.

The recent versions of hyprload-stuff are apparently ABI incompatible so you better *actually* fix this or get ready to watch your wayland compositor frequently crash on you out of nowhere with borderline unusable backtraces.
Do not fix stuff by cross-version symlinking libraries. Ever. They're versioned for a reason.

All you had to do was the first command line, the second one was not necessary at all.
