NEWS DRAFT: Budgie upgrade requires manual intervention
When upgrading from budgie-desktop 10.7.2-5 to 10.7.2-6, the package mutter43 must be replaced with magpie-wm, which currently depends on mutter. As mutter43 conflicts with mutter, manual intervention is required to complete the upgrade. First, remove mutter43 via "pacman -Rdd mutter43", then immediately perform the upgrade via "pacman -Syu". Do not relog or reboot between these steps. This will bypass the conflict.

Generally looks fine, but the second paragraph should be rewritten to outline the needed commands a bit better: First remove mutter43, then immediately perform the upgrade. Do not relog or reboot between these steps. ``` pacman -Rdd mutter43 pacman -Syu ``` Please also include the version and package name in the title: budgie-desktop >= 10.7.2-6 update requires manual intervention -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16
