It would seem I have something misconfigured on my machine. I haven't noticed anything on the mailing list or on the Arch news about this, checked the bug tracker and followed the links to the Python mailing list, and I'm still a little confused. Below is an example of what I get back from pacman -Sy and pacman -Su, the rest is in a pastebin at http://pastebin.com/3dBxsGvE.

resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... error: unresolvable package conflicts detected error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies) :: python2-nose and python-nose are in conflict The adnauseum got 1455 line of repetition through pygobject and pygobject-devel. Based on the Python mailing list referenced in FS25747 on the bug tracker, I'm not sure what to do next. You'll notice in the pastebin I stopped hitting the Y and just pressed enter (yes I really did that). No problems prior to today, but it seems as though I've borked something up. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Myra --

Hello, you are probably experiencing https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25527 I had the same thing yesterday and solved it quickly by doing:

# pacman -Rdd pygobject pygobject-devel # pacman -S --asdeps python2-gobject2

after that I was able to -Syu fine

Thank you very much. I missed that one when I did my search on the bug tracker. Myra -- Life's fun when your sick and psychotic!
