[arch-general] How can packages be "Newer than testing"??
Listmates, On an i586 box with kde4 from testing, I am now unable to login. kdm starts to login, crashes and restarts. (detailed in a separate post) I was hoping that this would be fixed by an update or two, but upon checking this evening, I received the following: 19:27 supersff:~> pms -u :: Synchronizing package databases... kdemod-legacy is up to date testing is up to date kde-unstable is up to date core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date archlinuxfr 25.2K 47.3K/s 00:00:01 [##################################################] 100% :: Starting full system upgrade... warning: akonadi: local (1.1.95-1) is newer than testing (1.1.2-2) warning: kdebase-runtime: local (4.2.95-1) is newer than testing (4.2.4-2) warning: kdelibs: local (4.2.95-1) is newer than testing (4.2.4-3) local database is up to date Huh??? I guess what it is saying is that akonadi, etc. are newer than the versions in "testing", but why would that message ever be generated with "kde-unstable" available? Also, could this also be a cause of the crashed kdm login on the i586 box? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

kde-unstable needs to be above [testing]. Allan
