xfburn-svn update problem

Hi,

I am trying to update my system and I get the following messages:

[nico@nicodesk ~]$ sudo pacman -Syu

:: thunar requires squeeze
:: thunar requires thunar-archive-plugin
:: thunar requires thunar-media-tags-plugin
:: thunar requires thunar-volman
:: thunar requires xfdesktop

if I answer no to the first question, of course I get the following result:

[nico@nicodesk ~]$ sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 current is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...

error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: libxfce4util-svn: conflicts with libxfce4util

My problem comes from the dependencies changes in xfburn-svn: thunar is no thunar-svn and libxfcegui4 is now libxfcegui4-svn. I looked around on the forum but I am stuck and don't really know what to do (except doing a full update w/o xfburn).

Did anybody experienced the same issue?

Thanks,
Nicolas

Re: xfburn-svn update problem

what arch? i686?

edit: more questions:
Are you running xfce4-svn packages from community? Or just xfce4 from extra?

edit again:
I think I know your problem. I tried to sync the deps for the xfce4-svn pkgs, but the new deps are only in effect for x86_64. These new deps allow for cross-installation between regular and -svn packages. When I built the pkg for i686 I had to use old deps to keep it consistent with the i686 -svn packages. hopefully this should be fixed when i686 pkgs are rebuilt.

then again, if this isn't your problem, i'll work with you till its fixed

Re: xfburn-svn update problem

I am running arch i686 and I installed xfce from extra. Also xfburn is the only svn package I installed.

Reply to edit:
I think this is my problem indeed, I'll wait for the next builds. Thanks for your quick answer

Re: xfburn-svn update problem

yup, just like i thought. too bad i didn't see this problem coming
The problem is there is no stable version of xfburn, else i'd add that to community.

My suggestion: either three possibilities.
1. Uninstall xfburn-svn and wait until wizzomafizzo updates it i686 -svn versions with new deps.
2. Install xfce4-svn which *should* end your conflict problems...
3. Install this pkg with pacman -U --> http://nagi-fanboi.net/arch/xfburn-svn- … pkg.tar.gz  (note: this is a temp fix)

My apologies in advance ._.

If you try option 3 and it still gives you conflicts when running pacman -Syu, let me know.
