First attempt to upgrade....

jimburnettva · 2010-02-22 15:23:32

Hody everyone!

After about two weeks of using Arch Linux I decided to do a full upgrade, just to make sure I stay up-to-date with the latest and greatest.

First I ran the pacman -Syy command to retrieve the latest list of software.

Then I ran the pacman -Su command to do the actual upgrade.

I also tried pacman -Syu

It's complaining about a phonon dependency, but when I try installing phonon it says it needs to remove qt, but i need qt to run kde.....

I'm working on this now and wanted to post this in case other people were having any issues. I'll post my fix once I find it.

After trying to install phonon and removing qt like it asks, it fails with:

[root@myhost ~]# pacman -S phonon

Wonder,
Thanks! Seems to be working so far. I'll add the RSS feed for the Arch news to my reader. :-)
