Re: pacman wants to install extra stuff when trying to update..[Solved]

Perhaps a package you previously installed has acquired some new dependencies?  Have you checked to see which of those packages you do already have installed?  That may help determine the troubled package.

compiz requires gnome unless you use the --disable-gnome flag before compiling.

[20:18 root ~]# pacman -Qs gnome
local/fam 2.7.0-9
    File Alteration Monitor - used by KDE, GNOME and others
local/libcroco 0.6.1-1
    GNOME CSS2 parsing and manipulation toolkit

    The GNOME Structured File Library is a utility library for reading and
    writing structured file formats.

Re: pacman wants to install extra stuff when trying to update..[Solved]

What repos are you using?  I can't find compiz in any of ours...

-edit- also, what does pacman -Si compiz show you? -/edit-

Ok found it.. it was emerald.. emerald depended on beryl-core, which wanted all those other packets..

Re: pacman wants to install extra stuff when trying to update..[Solved]

Hm.. that's odd, because the beryl-core PKGBUILD in CVS only has

depends=('startup-notification' 'libxcomposite' 'libxdamage' 'libxinerama' \
         'libxrandr' 'libgl' 'libpng' 'glib2')

and I don't see any gnome deps there.  Does compiz, from whatever repo you're getting it, provide beryl-core?

Maybe the --debug output could give a clue. Try something like :
pacman -Su --debug |grep pulling


pacman roulette : pacman -S $(pacman -Slq | LANG=C sort -R | head -n $((RANDOM % 10)))
