[pacman-dev] [PATCH] libalpm: more verbose error message for unsatisfied deps

[VMiklos]

hi

http://frugalware.org/~vmiklos/patches/libpacman-proposed/verbose_unsat_deps.diff

  before:
  $ sudo pacman -S kdebase
  :: kdebase-3.5.0-4: local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n]
  resolving dependencies... done.
  looking for inter-conflicts...
  error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
  
  after:
  $ sudo pacman -S kdebase
  :: kdebase-3.5.0-4: local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n]
  resolving dependencies... done.
  looking for inter-conflicts...
  ERROR: cannot satisfy dependency for "kdebase" (requires "hal>=0.5.5-2")
  error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

(ok, till dont_hide_errors.diff isn't applied you'll need the --debug
option to get this)

udv / greetings,
VMiklos
