Guys,
I have found a logic error in pacman (I think). I don't like replacing both the kernel and kernel-lts in the same 'pacman -Syu' call. So I answered 'no' when prompted to 'Replace kernel26-lts with core/linux-lts? [Y/n] n'. However, then pacman fails to install anything because 'linux-lts and kernel26-lts are in conflict'.
When I answered 'n' to Replace kernel26-lts, I expected pacman to ignore upgrading that package (and the others I said no to) but proceed forward and install the remaining updates. Should I file this as a bug? The full output is below:
There is no logic problem here. A full sysupgrade is a non-interactive procedure; the only exception is conflicting packages. What if instead of LTS kernel there was pacman itself? -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key ID: 164B5A6D Key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
