I'm trying to update the system, and cannot: # pacman -Su :: Starting full system upgrade... warning: shorewall: local (4.4.23.3-1) is newer than custom (4.4.12.1-1) resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... :: perl and Term-ReadLine-Gnu are in conflict (perl-term-readline). Remove Term-ReadLine-Gnu? [y/N] error: unresolvable package conflicts detected error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies) :: perl and Term-ReadLine-Gnu are in conflict (perl-term-readline) ~ This is an innovation indeed. What to do? I assume the package perl-term-readline install the Perl package Term::ReadLine. Please correct me if I'm wrong. The Perl package Term::ReadLine does, essentially, nothing. (http://search.cpan.org/~flora/Term-ReadLine-1.07/lib/Term/ReadLine.pm) This is a show-stopper. TIA Jorge Almeida
