hi

i'm running a 64bit arch linux (with some 32bit apps)

today i got a strange conflict - and the "solution" seems pretty dangerous to me, or am i wrong?

Search the forum for numerous other threads about how to handle the conflict

i did
and nothing useful came up: https://bbs.archlinux.org/search.php?se … 1074451185

Firstly, searches are not cached, so noone would be able to view your link properly. However yes somehow I've seen that the other threads on this are not turning up, so I suggest instead searching for 'util-linux', not 'lib32-util-linux', you will find the solution then.

Just a few posts below this one..... Same thing, just in the multilib repo this time

1. thanks for not simply posting a link
2. that search would return threads regarding this problem on 32bit hosts - i run a 64bit host. my main concern is that this would install incompatible 32bit binaries.

lib32-util-linux contains no binaries, only libraries.

Based on your initial post, I'm not sure where you perceive any danger -- you're uninstalling lib32-util-linux-ng, and replacing it with lib32-util-linux. The rest of the packages slated for installation are in support of the transaction to install multilib/dwarffortress.

well, i'll just try tomorrow

1. You're welcome. Self-help is the best kind.
2. If you'd done the search I recommended you would have seen that the problem is not related to arch at all, but is due to upstream renaming.
