Updates not fully integrated.

[Mithradates]

Hey,

I have an update for the LXQT Desktop, in the number of sixteen. I followed the steps and it went smoothly until toward the end when it is checking on inter conflict and this shows up stopping the installation from finishing:

"failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies):
liblxqt-git: requires libqtxdg-qt5-git
lxqt-panel-git: requires libqtxdg-qt5-git"

Checking the "Add/Remove Software and "liblxqt-gi" is installed as is "lxqt-panel-git", also "libqtxdg-q5-git" How can I add something that is already added?

i remember having a little trouble updating, too.

try this command in your terminal and tell us how it went:

Code: [Select]

sudo pacman-mirrors -g && sudo pacman -Syyuu && sudo pacman -Syyuu
if you get asked to replace a package answer "yes" and press enter.

There's been a name change with the latest LXQt updates.

libqtxdg-git  < Replaces >  libqtxdg-qt5-git

The easiest fix -- use Octopi to remove "libqtxdg-qt5-git" -- and associated packages
liblxqt-git
lxmenu-data
pcmanfm-qt-git
qt5-x11extras

Install "libqtxdg-git"

Install "pcmanfm-qt-git"

so, you are not using manjaro's lxqt edition, but you installed lxqt directly with AUR packages...
then, follow schpankme's advice.

i do not remember that error message. probably, because i have 3 different lxqt versions in virtualbox right now and i have played around with them quite a bit in the last 24 hours...

 I believe the error is related to this post in the AUR. Read the Latest Comments for the solution.

I copied the command in a terminal, and let it run with nothing unusual happening. Here is what came across for the US setting:

I used Octopi to remove "libqtxdg-qt5-git" and found another twenty six would also be removed. I proceeded to remove the 26 plus “libqtxdg-qt5-git”. I did install “libqtxdg-git” as well as “pcmanfm-qt-git”. I opened 'update manager' finding now that there were no 'updates' to be had. I entesed in a terminal “yaourt lxqt desktop”, I did find it was no longer installed. In its place were two options: 1. “aur/lxqt-desktop-git” and 2. “aur/lxqt-panel-git”

Selecting both, I proceeded the moderately long installation process ending successfully.

Excalibur1234;

I did use the 'manjaro lxqt' edition and did not install it directly with the AUR packages. I did , however, attempt to get it from the AUR prior to installing the 'lxqt desktop' via “Yaourt”. In the search bar (Add/Remove Software) I typed 'lxqt desktop' and chcked the 'aur' box then clicked 'Enter'. It was only after several minutes with no results did I use the terminal and:; “Yaourt lxqt desktop” command.


MY LXQT Desktop is up to date version: 0.8.0.1. I do thank all of you for your help and assistance in this issue of a minor nature.

Mithradates,

Glade to hear your back up and running, and thanks for reminding me that LXQt has many more modules then the base system I'm running.

Best regards

@Mithradates:

you are using manjaro lxqt AND have the lxqt-desktop-git package from AUR installed.

in the long term, this will create problems for you when different versions are available in different repositories.
example: at the moment, lxqt 0.8 is available in AUR. lxqt 0.7 is available in repolxqt (esclapion's repository - the manjaro lxqt maintainer). when different versions require different libraries (and these libraries are conflicting each other), you have a problem.

i recommend to do either one of the following:
- uninstall all lxqt packages from the AUR and use the update command i have given you in my first post. this will downgrade all packages to lxqt 0.7. if you are doing this after esclapion will have released lxqt 0.8 in his repository, you will keep lxqt 0.8.
- delete esclapion's repository: open /etc/pacman.conf as root in your text editor:

Code: [Select]

sudo <your text editor name here> /etc/pacman.conf
and delete these 3 lines (and save afterwards):
