[Solved] Pacman doesn't upgrade libpciaccess

marco.it · 2026-03-17 21:50:46

Hi all,

pacman -Syu fails upgrading the packages because doesn't find libpciaccess 0.19.

pacman -Syu --ignore libpciaccess it's ok
I've upgraded the mirrorlist, but without success.

Thanks

Marco

Hello.

What is the libpciaccess version you do have installed currently?
```
pacman -Q libpciaccess
```
What is the exact error message. Copy it here, don’t paraphrase.
What is the mirror you are currently using? The exact `Server = …` line.

Full, exact output, not a single line. Every single thing pacman says.

For the record: the mirror is providing a correct file to me. So doesn’t seem to be a broken mirror issue.

Waiting for the complete error message.

Please post the full output of `pacman -S libpciaccess --debug`.

mpan · 2026-03-17 22:40:52

marco.it: in pacman cache⁽¹⁾ delete the files belonging to libpciaccess: libpciaccess-0.19-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst and the corresponding .sig. Then retry. If the problem persists, provide the full debug as requested by loqs. Also prepend LANG=C before the command to switch to English.

⁽¹⁾ By default in “/var/cache/pacman/pkg”.

OK, so it's not redownloading it but also not finding it for verification. What do you get from `ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libaccess*`?

Thanks all, now it's ok

 [marco@casa pkg]$ pacman -Q libpciaccess
libpciaccess 0.19-1

Did the file have .part on the end of the name? That would explain pacman not finding it.

Yes, it was. Removed and issue solved. Thanks

Then it was caused by an interrupted download earlier. If you do see any other .part files in cache, you may delete them too to avoid trouble in the future.

Remember about LANG=C while reporting errors, thanks.
