[arch-general] pacman dependency error
While doing pacman -Suy today: resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: intel-dri: requires libdrm>=2.4.5-3 :: libgl: requires libdrm>=2.4.5-3 :: mesa: requires libdrm>=2.4.5-3 Now, I'd used the [testing] repo to update xorg to 1.6 and then disabled it. However pacman -Qi shows libdrm to be at 2.4.6-1 so I don't see why pacman refuses to upgrade. -- Abhishek

this has been happening to me too. for some reason pacman wants to *downgrade* libdrm and xf86-video-intel. I have the x server, intel driver, evdev, and mesa all explicitly installed from testing, while testing is at the end of my pacman.conf. A quick workaround is IgnorePkg = xf86-video-intel libdrm in pacman.conf after which I get: warning: libdrm: ignoring package upgrade (2.4.6-1 => 2.3.1-3) warning: xf86-video-intel: ignoring package upgrade (2.6.99.902-1 => 2.4.3-1) -- damjan

That is because they have the force option in the PKGBUILD.

Thanks, that fixed the problem. -- Abhishek
