Conflict when installing KDEMOD3

Hi all,

I tried to install KDEMOD3-complete, and at the end I got an error message:

checking package integrity...
(201/201) checking for file conflicts               [#####################] 100%
error: could not prepare transaction
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
kdemod3-kdebindings: /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/perllocal.pod exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
bash-3.2#

How can I fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Josep.

Re: Conflict when installing KDEMOD3

Try to rename that file, something like :
sudo mv /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/perllocal.pod /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/perllocal.pod.bak

And try again

Re: Conflict when installing KDEMOD3

Er, please do this first..

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=56373  Read this.. it will tell you, among other things to help you -understand- this, to..

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/perllocal.pod

Find out the package conflict (if there is one).. file a bug report.

Please don't brute force your way past problems, it is the easiest way to screw up your machine later. Especially without letting the community know there's an issue, if there is one. This way others don't have the same problem later on.

Hi all
Following the post you suggested me, I found that the file is not owned by other packages, so I renamed it, and everything was OK.
Thank you very much!

Josep.

Re: Conflict when installing KDEMOD3

I'd also do a bug report to the kdemod guys.  There is no way that file should be in their package.

Re: Conflict when installing KDEMOD3

running kdemod-legacy here and on my system the perllocal.pod file is owned by kdemod3-kdebindings. Tried googling "kdebindings perllocal.pod" and there are a lot of hits. Couldn't make sense of much of the info but this seemed interesting.

http://support.zenwalk.org/viewtopic.ph … view=print

especially the part about...
"This new build should add the DCOP entry to the file instead."

Which is the case on my system.
