I had to manually do
rm -r /srv/http/squirrelmail/doc/ReleaseNotes/
now upgrade can happen normally

Pacman upgrade - file conflict on lorcon

On last upgrade, pacman stopped because of a file conflict:
lorcon: /usr/share/man/man3/lorcon.3.gz exists in filesystem
What I did:
# pacman -R lorcon-old-svn pylorcon aircrack-ng-scripts
# pacman -S lorcon python2-pylorcon aircrack-ng-scripts
Then everything worked out properly.
I guess theese packages were renamed, but pacman did not ask me "Do you want to replace lorcon-old-svn with lorcon?", unlike other times.
Don't know if this was the expected behavior, anyway I'm posting in case someone needs.

Davide

Should I remove /usr/lib/dovecot/imap and /usr/libdovecot/pop3 and continue the upgrade, or is there a problem with a package?

Box File Conflict

I have my box account set to sync pictures to my box account automatically. I like this feature because I want all of my pictures to be backed up but I have the following issues.
1. Pictures are synced when taking them. but if the picture is blurry and has to be deleted it remains in the box account.
2. When I view my photos using Link and windows picture viewer, a duplicate file is created for every picture I view and I get the box file conflict notification.
I'm, assuming that I have something wrong with my settings. Again, I prefer not to turn off the auto sync to box, but I'd like the ability to use link to view files without duplicating.
Thanks

This does not have anything to do with type conflicts. You likely have two applications that are using the TestStand Engine. One is completing and modifying the StationGlobals.ini file. At the same time, your second application also is modifying the StationGlobals in a different way. If you save the second application, it will overwrite what the first application did. So you are prompted to decide which version you want to keep.
This dialog occurs because there is code that calls Engine.CommitGlobalsToDisk. This method has a parameter called "promptOnSaveConflicts" that gives the option to display this prompt. However, I believe this method is likely called internally by the ApplicationMgr control. I haven't found a way to have the ApplicationMgr call this function with a false parameter value. Before shutting down your application, you could call Engine.CommitGlobalsToDisk with the false parameter and then shut down, which should make the problem go away.
However, you do risk overwriting global data so I would examine what you are doing to see if you expect to have multiple applications modifying the globals. If this is unexpected, you likely have a problem. I didn't quite understand the different between your GUI and EXE or what you are trying to accomplish, so perhaps there is a better way to implement what you want to accomplish.

Upgrade File Conflicts (with Pacman -Syu)

When I do a pacman -Syu, I get the following error message:

Hmm.. Any ideas on how to get around this error?

I just saw the answer in the News. Upgrade screen first. Then upgrade ncurses. I will give that a try.

[Solved] ABS built kernel package file conflicts

Index» Kernel & Hardware
Hello-
I am starting a new thread since my previous post was to an ancient thread (sorry, I hadn't noted the date).
I built a custom kernel using ABS, attempting to follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cu … n_with_ABS notes
However the notes regarding _kernelname and pkgname don't seem to match up with the formatting or idea of the PKGBUILD file provided by abs.
Instead of following the wiki, i followed the instruction provided by the PKGBUILD by commenting out the default line and uncommenting/modifying the second line.
#pkgbase=linux # Build stock -ARCH kernel
pkgbase=linux-iwlwifidebug # Build kernel with a different name
The result was a package with conflicting files:

In the thread that was closed due to being too old (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=234004), jasonwryan noted:
"pkgbase is for split packages, you need pkgname:
_kernelname="-foo"
pkgname=linux-foo
pkgver=3.12.1
pkgrel=1
_srcname=linux-3.12
pkgdesc="The ${pkgname} kernel and modules"
" and you can see that he also changed kernelname.
Which jives with the doc https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cu … n_with_ABS, which notes
Modify pkgname and _kernelname for your custom package name, e.g.:
_kernelname="-custom" # custom suffix, eg., 3.12.1-1-custom
pkgname=linux-custom # custom package name, eg., vmlinuz-linux-custom
Looking at the logic that is provided by jasonwryan and the doc, I need pkgname and _kernelname to be different than default- however these are defined in PKGBUILD as being based on pkgbase, and it is much cleaner to update the one line that the PKGBUILD maintainer seemed to want us to update.
_kernelname=${pkgbase#linux}
pkgname=("${pkgbase}" "${pkgbase}-headers" "${pkgbase}-docs")
Note that the # symbol strips 'linux' from the front of pkgbase assigns it to _kernelname, while pkgname is a list
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ pkgbase=linux-iwlwifidebug
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ echo $pkgbase
linux-iwlwifidebug
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ _kernelname=${pkgbase#linux}
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ echo $_kernelname
-iwlwifidebug
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ pkgname=("${pkgbase}" "${pkgbase}-headers" "${pkgbase}-docs")
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ echo ${pkgname[@]}
linux-iwlwifidebug linux-iwlwifidebug-headers linux-iwlwifidebug-docs
So far so good - we have a pkgname and _kernelname which are both non default.
And to show this, I've created a package by just changing the pkgbase, which shows that it changes both the pkgname and the _kernelname:
Change of pkgbase:
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ grep pkgbase= PKGBUILD
#pkgbase=linux # Build stock -ARCH kernel
pkgbase=linux-iwlwifidebug # Build kernel with a different name
Package Names Set
pkgname=("${pkgbase}" "${pkgbase}-headers" "${pkgbase}-docs")
for _p in ${pkgname[@]}; do
eval "package_${_p}() {
_package${_p#${pkgbase}}
done
Ouput Package Name

_kernelname sets information in package
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ grep -e provides PKGBUILD | grep _kernelname
provides=("kernel26${_kernelname}=${pkgver}")
provides=("kernel26${_kernelname}-headers=${pkgver}")
provides=("kernel26${_kernelname}-docs=${pkgver}")
Which can be seen here
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ pacman -Qpi linux-iwlwifidebug-3.12.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz | grep -i provides
Provides : kernel26-iwlwifidebug=3.12.1
So, what is going wrong?
So the root problem comes to the install path of the files, not the pkgname or the _kernelname, as I have shown above I believe.
What I found is that changing the pkgrel led to a working install, with the files installed into separate directories.
pkgrel is modified in the Makefile directly
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ grep pkgrel PKGBUILD
pkgrel=2
# set extraversion to pkgrel
sed -ri "s|^(EXTRAVERSION =).*|\1 -${pkgrel}|" Makefile
This leads to a package that can be installed, because the directory path includes the -2 rather than -1
Before changing pkgrel, i had this
[dylan@zenbook linux]$ pacman -Qpl linux-iwlwifidebug-3.12.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz | tail -2
linux-iwlwifidebug /usr/src/linux-3.12.1-1-ARCH/
linux-iwlwifidebug /usr/src/linux-3.12.1-1-ARCH/vmlinux
After changing (but keeping default name for package)
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ pacman -Qpl linux-3.12.1-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz | tail -2
linux /usr/src/linux-3.12.1-2-ARCH/
linux /usr/src/linux-3.12.1-2-ARCH/vmlinux
Where does the package directory tree get defined?
The only place pkgrel gets touched is in a re-write of the kernel makefile:
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ grep pkgrel PKGBUILD
pkgrel=2
# set extraversion to pkgrel
sed -ri "s|^(EXTRAVERSION =).*|\1 -${pkgrel}|" Makefile
Where it gets set, then tied to KERNELVERSION
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ grep EXTRAVERSION src/linux-3.12/Makefile
EXTRAVERSION = -2
KERNELVERSION = $(VERSION)$(if $(PATCHLEVEL),.$(PATCHLEVEL)$(if $(SUBLEVEL),.$(SUBLEVEL)))$(EXTRAVERSION)
Which appears to only be exported for some source tree stuff
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ grep KERNELVERSION src/linux-3.12/Makefile
KERNELVERSION = $(VERSION)$(if $(PATCHLEVEL),.$(PATCHLEVEL)$(if $(SUBLEVEL),.$(SUBLEVEL)))$(EXTRAVERSION)
export VERSION PATCHLEVEL SUBLEVEL KERNELRELEASE KERNELVERSION
echo "$(KERNELVERSION)$$($(CONFIG_SHELL) $(srctree)/scripts/setlocalversion $(srctree))"
@echo "$(KERNELVERSION)$$($(CONFIG_SHELL) $(srctree)/scripts/setlocalversion $(srctree))"
@echo $(KERNELVERSION)
And not at all in pkgbuild
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$ grep KERNELVERSION PKGBUILD
[dylan@zenbook linux.working]$
What am i missing here?
Is there a bug that should be changing some headers in the Makefile to create a different directory structure for the packages, by passing in the _kernelname, pkgname, or pkgbase?

That needs to be fixed at the KDEmod end. Make sure you have updated your pacman database (pacman -Sy) and try again. Then file a bug with them

File conflicts when upgrading pacman

My Arch system has not been upgraded in a few months as it has been out of commission. I turned it on today and decided I should do a full system upgrade. When I do so, pacman prompts me to upgrade pacman itself first, so I agree, and the upgrade errors out with the following message:
checking for file conflicts...
error: the following file conflicts were found:
pacman: /etc/pacman.d/testing: exists in filesystem
What do I do?

Move this file out of pacman way

Ruby-cairo upgrade file conflicts [solved]

I did a 'pacman -Su' and it tried to upgrade ruby-cairo but it then bombed out due to file conflicts. If I do a 'pacman -Qu ruby-cairo' it says the package does not exist, even though I'm pretty sure I installed it in the past and hence why there are file conflicts. Should I force the upgrade or are there better ways to solve this?
Here's the output from pacman -Su

farrel@ages ~ $ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/cairo.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/cairo.rb is owned by ruby-rcairo 1.8.0-2
So there's ruby-rcairo (what I have installed) and ruby-cairo which is what it's trying to install. I can probably just remove ruby-rcairo and install ruby-cairo.

[IDEA] File Conflicts

If Pacman when it gets to a file conflict(e.g. when a file already exists), it just stops and tells you what files are conflicting. It would be a cool feature if it would ask you if you want to overwrite the file, or not. For example it might say:
File already exists: "/usr/bin/bash" Overwrite? [Y/n]
Just an idea
Mark

everyone's gotta have an "improvement" for pacman regarding config files.
i recently gathered the opinion that this is entirely not pacman's fault, but the contents of the package. a program should never include a default configuration file, but provide an EXAMPLE. that way, you will never overwrite your config.
optimally, this should be fixed upstream by the software developpers, but that's not likely to happen. if packagers agree with me, it would be possible to rename packaged config files to config.file.example.
but i'm not counting on that either.

Do a
pacman -Qo /path/to/file
to see to wich packages the files belong to.

Anyone with the same problem here or is it just me?
Btw: If it's a bug: Please fill a bug report, i don't want to register just for 1 bug...

That would be awesome. Three lines of code just for me

Pacman hanging on "checking for file conflicts"

I've tried running pacman -Syu on my laptop and pacman is simply hanging at the checking for file conflicts stage. I've let it sit for several minutes, but it never seems to get past that stage. The list of packages to be updated isn't long:
Targets (5): bison-2.6.2-1 chromium-21.0.1180.75-1 flex-2.5.37-1 libldap-2.4.32-1 lm_sensors-3.3.2-4
This is being done on a laptop that was only recently rebuilt with a new Arch install using the latest installation media. The install went well and previous updates have worked with no problems.

I'm glad you solved the problem but "pacman -Scc" shouldn't be necessary and makes it more difficult to recover in a variety of situations. You can always re-download old packages but having them in your cache makes it easy to roll something back and makes it possible to do this without, for example, a working network connection. I installed in November and I've never even run "pacman -Sc" let alone "pacman -Scc". (Though I have trimmed the cache to free up disk space using, I think, paccache.)
