Upgrade all together, your dkms and utils versions are out of sync, rebuild them together, also in future use paru -Syu instead -Sua
If it still fails, clear your build cache and rebuild.

No change. I still get the error.
I cleaned before using

paru -Scc

and deleted the leftover folder of pacman.

I think this comes from line 10 of PKGBUILD: "pkgver=580.142". Try changing 142 to 159!

Jodi42 · 2026-05-08 14:23:34

Is that not going to break anything.
How do i even change that??

seth · 2026-05-08 15:51:08

Stop using paru.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-580xx-utils is a split package, running makepkg on it will build all required packages, then

pacman -U nvidia-580xx-dkms… nvidia-580xx-utils…

No idea why paru is trying to install them sequentially, file a bug (against paru)

No, it's not going to break anything, 142 is the old version.
You will have to edit the PKGBUILD with an editor, run makepkg, and then upgrade with "pacman -U" (as seth also explains above).

See also the (at this time the first) comment in nvidia-580xx-dkms!

I have filed a bug on their github page of paru.

Where to file

I guess here https://github.com/Morganamilo/paru/issues?

Ftr, since this is marked solved: you did manage to install/update the packages using makepkg -i resp. makepkg and pacman -U?
The "solution" isn't the paru bug?

makepkg and then pacman -U. Problem solved. After this paru -Syu and nvidia-settings also installed without problem.
