Re: Kdemod error...Weird?

Unfortunately, you have to wait for pacman 3.1.1 , and new kdemod packages after that release.

Re: Kdemod error...Weird?

Pacman has changed something (provides).
There are two or three possibilities:
1. Downlaod the PKGBUILD from qt-enhanced. Modifiy so it fits. Then makepkg and pacman -U ....
2. Install qt-poppler with pacman -Sd poppler-qt
3. Wait until kdemod updates his qt-enhanced package...

try rebuilding qt-enhanced with 'provides=("qt $pkgver")' for the provides line in the PKGBUILD

[edit]
added quotes as explained by shining to avoid confusion

Rather 'provides=("qt $pkgver")', and that's the first problem with this syntax. Quotes are always needed.

So if you use this line, you can rebuild the package with makepkg and install it with pacman -U. That should work correctly.
The second problem is that this package couldn't be put in a sync repo using repo-add, because repo-add doesn't handle this provides line correctly.

To avoid both problems, we will probably move to the following syntax in 3.1.1 :
provides=(qt=$pkgver)

Sorry for the confusion

Could someone please e-mail me an already compiled pkg of the fixed qt-enhanced.
