---> Description:
Dependency loop (or something like that) between pacman and pacman-color results in: - 'pacman -S pacman' fails because of pacman-color - 'pacman -S pacman-color' fails because of pacman I had to remove pacman-color first (pacman -R -n pacman-color) before upgrading pacman and then re-installing pacman-color. ---> Additional info: package version(s) [root@mercure /]# yaourt -Ss pacman core/pacman 3.4.0-2 [3.3.3-5 installé] (base) A library-based package manager with dependency support core/pacman-mirrorlist 20100621-1 [20100131-1 installé] Arch Linux mirror list for use by pacman [..] archlinuxfr/pacman-color 3.4.0-1 [3.3.3-1 installé] Command-line frontend for libalpm aka pacman with color patch ---> Steps to reproduce ** English translation of the error messages and comments inserted by myself** [root@mercure /]# pacman -S pacman-color :: Les paquets suivants devraient être mis à jour en premier : ** The following packages sould be updated first: ** pacman :: Voulez-vous annuler l'opération courante et :: mettre à jour ces paquets maintenant? [O/n] ** I typed <Enter>, so that pacman should update pacman (default choice) ** Résolution des dépendances... Recherche des conflits possibles entre paquets... Erreur: la préparation de la transaction a échoué (la satisfaction des dépendances a échoué) ** Error: preparation of the transaction failed (the satsifaction of dependencies failed) :: pacman-color: requiert pacman=3.3.3 ** 'requiert' is 'requires' or 'required' in english, I believe ** [root@mercure /]# pacman -S pacman Résolution des dépendances... Recherche des conflits possibles entre paquets... Erreur: la préparation de la transaction a échoué (la satisfaction des dépendances a échoué) :: pacman-color: requiert pacman=3.3.3 ** Same translation as above ** |
