pacman / libgl issue \ 7.6/7.6-1/7.7

pacman / libgl issue
everything requires either libgl 7.6 (drivers) or 7.6-1 (trident-dri driver), but only 7.7 is available in repo

remove trident-dri because is not anymore included in mesa 7.7. i think we should remove that from repo too

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Everything seems still in order after reboot.

Re: pacman / libgl issue \ 7.6/7.6-1/7.7

Hello,

Sorry to seemingly resurrect a 'resolved' thread; however I am posting because this exact situation has cropped up for myself so I felt it was related.

I don't update my laptop often, which's why this has presented itself now rather than sooner.

My concern is that the graphics adapter in the laptop is actually a 'trident' and so I wonder what the ramifications are if I remove this driver or what I should be aware of?

**Edit: Just to update, I removed xf86-video-trident so that I could then remove trident-dri, I then re-installed xf86-video-trident. All appears well now (no libgl out of date prompts), I will post if there are any future problems. Thanks.
