update problem

Hi, I tried to update my system and i'm getting the following problem:

# pacman -Su
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace netkit-ftp with core/inetutils? [Y/n] y
:: Replace netkit-telnet with core/inetutils? [Y/n] y
:: Replace man with core/man-db? [Y/n] y
:: Replace qtmod with kdemod-testing/kdemod-kde-common? [Y/n] y
resolving dependencies...
warning: provider package was selected (kdemod-meanwhile provides meanwhile)
error: cannot resolve "kdemod-kdelibs>=4.2.1", a dependency of "kdemod-kgrubeditor"
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: kdemod-kgrubeditor: requires kdemod-kdelibs>=4.2.1

I've tried to search for a solution, but I can't find anything. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
BTW, there has been a few months since the last update because i wasn't using this system.

Re: update problem

That seems to be saying that a dependency can't be found.  Probably a dependency that hasn't been updated in the kdemod-testing repo. -Syu later and see if it is fixed or turn off the testing repo.

Re: update problem

ok, i disabled the testing repo and it's working nicely. Although its a 800 MB update.. :-(
Anyway, thanks a lot bob_sheep!
