qt-enhanced conflicts

I am trying to do a system upgrade, but as I have kdemod rather than kde, i use qt-enhanced. Pacman tries to install qt but complains that qt-enhanced is there. I cant seem to work out what is should do so that i can upgrade. Here is the output from pacman:

[root@wensleydale ~]# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronising package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
kdemod is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: qt conflicts with qt-enhanced. Remove qt-enhanced? [Y/n] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: qt: conflicts with qt-enhanced

I am rather new to arch linux, so any help would be appreciated.

It's caused by this...

I suppose you could find out more how to proceed with kdemod on kdemod forums.

Re: qt-enhanced conflicts

actually they are waiting for 3.1.1 it seems. does anyone know when it will be released? it's kinda bugging me, not being able to use my systems package manager. is anyone else having this problem or just us kdemod lusers?

Re: qt-enhanced conflicts

I am still getting issues, I upgraded pacman today....

[tyler@hell ~]$ sudo pacman -Sudf
:: Starting full system upgrade...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: qt-enhanced conflicts with qt3. Remove qt3? [Y/n] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: qt-enhanced: conflicts with qt3
[tyler@hell ~]$

Shouldent using the "d" & "f" options allow me to bypass this (no dependancy checks and force install?) or does the "u" option (sysupgrade) conflict with the "d" & "f" options?

Thanks.

Re: qt-enhanced conflicts

I just upgraded to the new pacman and updated my kdemod with a simple pacman -Syu and didn't have an issue.
Just say yes to replace qt4 with qt and the rest will take care of itself
