Can't update because of the new foomatic-db-engine

xerox1101 · 2009-10-14 22:26:24

Just tried to run a pacman -Syu to update my system and I'm running into an error caused by the new version of the foomatic-db-engine. The error messages I get are shown below

resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: foomatic-db-hpijs: requires foomatic-db-engine>=4.0_20090625
:: foomatic-db-nonfree: requires foomatic-db-engine>=4.0_20090625

Looks like it's not recognizing that the new foomatic-db-engine version (4.0.3-2) is greater than the one required by those other packages. Any one else seeing this?

Just sync the foomatic-db-engine with --nodeps check

pacman -Sd foomatic-db-engine

Not a great idea....

Filing a bug report would be the way to go...

Got it here as well with

$ yaourt -Q foomatic-db-engine
==> List all installed packages
extra/foomatic-db-engine 4.0_20090625-1

Same error here:

I already sent an email to the maintainer. Some errors happened when the packages where moved out of testing.

Allan · 2009-10-15 02:50:41

So three people affected and still not bug report...

ajonat · 2009-10-15 02:52:41

Allan, I did search the bug database and found this recently filled bug which seems related so I commented in there: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16654
If it's not related, please tell me so I fill another bug.

ajonat · 2009-10-15 03:00:42

I filled a bug report as the other one was not related: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16659
Please, leave your messages there.

Just fixing it.

CaptainHero · 2009-10-15 06:51:06

So, I guess I am supposed to replace foomatic-db-hpijs with extra/foomatic-db?

That's what pacman is asking for. Just want to make sure.

Can't remove foomatic-db-hpijs because hplip depends on it.

Edit: Oops, I just saw a new hplip is coming...

Infin1ty · 2009-10-15 09:59:42

i'm still having problems with that
i cant use pacman -Syu
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: foomatic-db-hpijs: requires foomatic-db-engine>=4.0_20090625
[erez@compaq ~]$ pacman -Qs foomatic-db-engine

Foomatic is a system for using free software printer drivers with common

AndyRTR · 2009-10-15 10:09:00

wait until your mirror is in sync. foomatic-db-hpijs is obsolete now.

Infin1ty · 2009-10-15 17:24:33

yeah, thanks
i saw it removed hpijs
everything worked ok for now
