Description:
When I try to install extra/archboot, pacman cannot get rt2x00-cvs lisa@foo:~$ LC_ALL=C sudo pacman -S archboot resolving dependencies... error: cannot resolve "rt2x00-cvs", a dependency of "archboot" error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: archboot: requires rt2x00-cvs lisa@foo:~$ It does also depend on iwlwifi which does not exist, and itself(archboot). It seems to work if I remove rt2x00-cvs, iwlwifi and archboot from the dependency list, Steps to reproduce: 1. Update the pacman database 2. Try to install extra/archboot via pacman |
This task depends upon

Can confirm - iwlwifi and rt2x00-cvs don't exist anymore, the
package needs to be updated. The self-dependency also exists.

I'm still getting this... Is archboot considered obsolete?

There is dependency resolution failed bug... The package is
looking for a bcm43xx-fwcutter which doesn't exist in repo, and
should be replaced with b43-fwcutter. I'm posting a patch for
PKGBUILD to fix this...
