[solved] 2.6.32 dependency error

jithin1987 · 2009-12-05 17:45:01

Hi,
I having the following error when doing full system upgrade.

:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: broadcom-wl: requires kernel26<2.6.32
:: vhba-module: requires kernel26<2.6.32

I don't think my system needs broadcom com wireless drivers. So I can remove it. But what about vhba-module? Has anyone else faced this issue when upgrading?

i'll fix it in community-testing

One doubt. Is there a separate community-testing? I thought there was only one testing

there is a separate [community-testing]. Of course, as a [testing] user, you read arch-dev-public and knew that...

jithin1987 · 2009-12-06 01:33:58

Can you point me to any links as in any documentation where I can find this info. Similarly is there any extra-testing.?

core/extra -> testing
community-> community-testing

is like this because community is managed by TUs

as documentation open pacman.conf. it has community-testing repo commented.

Thanks. Sorry for asking this stupid question. What is TU ?

TU means trusted users. they are managing aur and community repo.

OK I still have problems:

resolving dependencies...
:: klibc-extras: requires klibc-2766jIakMS-RtWrJ27r33xwPRNY
:: klibc-module-init-tools: requires klibc-2766jIakMS-RtWrJ27r33xwPRNY
:: klibc-udev: requires klibc-2766jIakMS-RtWrJ27r33xwPRNY

It's the same klibc dependency "bug" that I had before. Could this be somehow repaired?

In meanwhile I'll just add it to ignore pkg list...

PS.: vhba-module and kernel still don't want to update....

@Primoz like i said before that is fixed in community-testing repo. you should enable in pacman.conf if you have testing enabled.

klibc thing, be sure that you don't have any ignore packages that depend on them and run pacman -Syu. don't update selective packages.

Primoz · 2009-12-07 13:40:27

Oh. Silly me thought that testing-community and testing are mutually excluding ad just changed testing to testing-community.
Yeah now it works!

Thanks again!

Can you also fix lirc? It's giving me

 :: Synchronizing package databases...
 community-testing          4.7K 1046.6K/s 00:00:00 [#####################] 100%
 testing is up to date
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lirc: requires kernel26<2.6.32

By the by, does this mean that it's trying to install the 2.6.32 kernel, and lirc is keeping it back?

http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/ … 09470.html

Broken binary modules:
- lirc still needs to be patched, though no fix available yet.

Okay. Thanks for pointing that out. That thread grew too large too fast for me to read it. :-\ Not an excuse, I know.

thx, simply adding community-testing to my testing-pacman.conf solved my dependency-issue.
so im just wondering, does your repos look like this too?:

[testing]
Include=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server=ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

[community-testing]
Include=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server=ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

[core]
Include=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server=ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

[extra]
Include=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server=ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

[community]
Include=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server=ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

...is the order ok?

wonder · 2009-12-12 23:56:38

the default order that is in pacman.conf
testing, core, extra, community-testing, community
