[SOLVED] TeX Live 2010 packages won't install

I get the following messages with different files a couple of dozen times:

texlive-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/pdfpun.1.gz existiert im Dateisystem
/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/luatex-bidi.def existiert in 'texlive-core' und 'texlive-langextra'

They hence do not install.

edit: Fixed in new package.

Re: [SOLVED] TeX Live 2010 packages won't install

You already have some files from the packages you want to install - remove the conflicting files first.
How did you get '/usr/share/man/man1/pdfpun.1.gz' and friends? Did you copy them manually?

Edit: Are you using packages from testing?

Please use 'export LC_MESSAGES="C"' before posting so that error messages are printed out in English.

Re: [SOLVED] TeX Live 2010 packages won't install

I have the ordinary packages of TeX Live 2009 installed, the Testing repo activated (that's why I am posting here) and copied nothing manually.

pacman -Q currently reports this.

pacman -Syu this.

What does

$ pacman -Qo /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/luatex-bidi.def; pacman -Qo /usr/share/man/man1/pdfpun.1.gz

say?

/e: The first errors come from pdfjam which was moved into texlive-bin/texlive-core.

pacman -Rd pdfjam

to fix it.

Re: [SOLVED] TeX Live 2010 packages won't install

After removing pdfjam I get fewer, but still a lot of errors.

With pdfpun1.gz gone from the list, I ran:

sudo pacman -Qo /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/bookest-xetex-bidi.def; /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/colortbl-xetex-bidi.def

Which gave:

error: failed to read file '/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/bookest-xetex-bidi.def': No such file or directory
bash: /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/colortbl-xetex-bidi.def: No such file or directory

Re: [SOLVED] TeX Live 2010 packages won't install

Yeah, sorry. Didn't see it's an other error for these files. Apparently, you cannot install texlive-langextra currently, because it contains files that are already present in texlive-core and texlive-core is a dependency (texlive-langextra → texlive-latexextra → texlive-core). Please file a bug report for this package.
Until the package is fixed, you have to remove texlive-langextra to be able to upgrade texlive-core.

Indeed, thank you. Jan Steffens appears to already have opened a report, I posted a quick summary of this thread there.
