Details

Pacman -Syu tries to update kde to 3.2 but for kdebase it results with file conflicts for the following files:

/opt/kde/bin/kfmexec: exists in filesystem
/opt/kde/include/kbookmarkimporter_crash.h: exists in filesystem
/opt/kde/include/kbookmarkimporter_ie.h: exists in filesystem
/opt/kde/include/kbookmarkimporter_opera.h: exists in filesystem

pacman -Qo /opt/kde/bin/kfmexec

/opt/kde/bin/kfmexec is owned by kdebase 3.1.5-1

IRC conversation with Xentac revealed that the 4 files were moved from kdebase to kdelibs. The solution he proposed was

pacman -Rd kdebase
pacman -Syu

but this is quite ugly, so a respective explanation could be posted on the news section of www.archlinux.org.

There were also file conflicts with koffice and kopete (and kig if You happened to have the staging version; as kig is now part of kdeedu, it can be removed from staging altogether).

Actually I had removed 3.1.5 before building 3.2.0 to avoid linking problems, that's why I didn' t come through it. At the moment I can't post msgs in news (no access), I'll contact Judd about it. Feel free to post a msg (u or Xentac) in the mean time.

I'll try to re-compile koffice later tomorrow & fix it.
