I use yaourt, but I tried pacman clean and still the same problem.
So, what should I do ?

[SOLVED] Pacman wont upgrade any packages

EDIT: I was able to solve my problem by pacman -R yaourt package-query pacman-color, I was then able to update pacman. Since I like yaourt and wanted to keep it I follow the instructions on their page (http://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en#get_it). I added their repo to my /etc/pacman.conf and then installed yaourt from pacman and now everything works again like it should.
When I try to upgrade packages I get the following errors:

I tried to uninstall packagekit and failed, then I tried to install packagekit-git and that failed too.

I assume this should be git-repository=0.6.6 Also I can find this package on Pacman or AUR

This is obsolete dependency connected with gobject-introspection support. I think it can be removed without any problems. :)

Pacman seg fault(Solved but with comments on pacman-db-upgrade)

Performed an install from FTP and booted into root login.
Performed pacman -Syu and received report system up to date.
Performed downloads via pacman of twelve packages including xorg and xfce4.
Performed download of abs package.
Downloaded abs repos.
Modified abs extra vlc package and performed pacman -U install of modified package.
Pacman working well at this point.
Rebooted.
After reaching xfce4 Desktop, attemptd to install firefox.
Pacman -S firefox produced..... /usr/bin/pacman/ report(forget the exact error)
Subsequent trials with ...pacman -U .... produces seg fault.
Cannot use pacman. All other programs seem to perform correctly. Perhaps have lost DNS.
Cannot perform ...pacman -Syu --debug.....segfaults.

Solved the difficulty but have no idea what can be done to prevent it from occuring for another user.
It seems that the db did not get upgraded when the ...pacman-db-upgrade ...command was executed. There was no statement for ..."pre 3.5 db" upgrade....while executing the command.
After re-install, the upgrade command performed correctly and pacman now performs correctly after reboots.
The question comes up as to what to do if the upgrade command does not work correctly and whether some indicator of correct response should appear in the beginners guide. Additionally, what can be done in the event that the upgrade command fails to meet the correct response.
These questions will in time be resolved by a new .iso but the present exposure is amazing in its consequences!
Perhaps the upgrade command is also a function of properly synced mirrors but the command requesting the upgrade was ...pacman -Syy... the mirror sync function!
What do we have...catch22?
The resultant segfaults make sense if the pacman sync db is not upgraded.
How is a user to know the upgrade failed? What to do about such a condition?

I had no problems with my iphone 4

Your iPad doesn't have a camera!!.... Didn't you say your iPad was an iPad 2 ??
If your iPad is an iPad 2 then it will have a camera (front and back) and will be able to update to iOS 7.
The first iPad's last update was before iOS 6, and you said yours was saying 5.1.1 was up to date, then it is probably and iPad first gen not an iPad 2.
So to answer your question.... You can't update to iOS 7 because your iPad is a first gen not an iPad 2.
I hope this helped!!!! :D

[solved] problems with pacman after upgrading to 2.6.27-ARCH

i'm not sure if my problem is related with the new version of software or the fact that i ran out of space during the upgrade. but once i restarted after the upgrade i was not able to boot into the system and the error i would get was:
ERROR: Failed to parse block device name for '/dev/sda3'
unknown
ERROR: root fs cannot be detected. Try using the rootfstype= kernel parameter.
i followed what some other people did and i booted with livecd, chrooted and regenerated mkinitcpio. since i saw some other people having the same problems here is what i used:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Boo … omplicated
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mki … ng_presets
and just for good measure i decided to run fsck:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fsck
i was still seeing some segmentation faults so i decided to re-install all of the packages installed:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pac … re_Restore
now everything seems to work OK except when i run pacman. here is what i get:

packages are still installed but i would like to get to the bottom of this and get it fixed. any ideas what went wrong (well... besides me running out of disk space!) and how to get it fixed?

thanks for the reply. i tried finding out what packages these libraries beling to but for every single one of these listed i get an error saying that "No packages owns...". could it be something with ldconfig?
EDIT:
so i figured out that one of the files was related to wireshark. i tried re-installing wireshark and here is what i got:

i'm hoping there is a way to sort this out. i'm loving the way my laptop is set up and would have re-install everything...

First time trying to update the system after installing the new pacman, and I receive this error output:

The package has just been updated, wait a couple hours until the mirrors sync and try again or pick some other mirror.

Need help recovering from glibc upgrade [SOLVED]

I recently did pacman -Syu on a system because I was having trouble with a softphone utility. I installed Arch on this laptop perhaps 6 months ago and have not done many upgrades since that time. Of course I've been waylaid by the recent glibc changes and I'm trying to recover. I think I've gotten a good deal of the way there by researching the issue and attempting a few solutions. But I'm quite confused by what I'm now seeing, so I want to ask for help here.
First, let me point out that I posted in this forum yesterday about certain events that led to my problems--see that thread at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1186089. Essentially, I followed the wrong set of instructions and did pacman -Syu --ignore glibc pacman -Su before doing pacman -U http://pkgbuild.com/~allan/glibc-2.16.0 … pkg.tar.xz. That broke pacman, which, being the most current version, was expecting that glibc version to be on the system.
To remedy the problem I followed the procedure outlined in that thread--namely booting from a USB drive on the affected system and running pacman -U http://pkgbuild.com/~allan/glibc-2.16.0 … pkg.tar.xz --root /mnt/brokenRoot. Things kinda started to work then: pacman would run, but I noted that my mouse cursor was not responding. I decided to try and finish the upgrade and so ran pacman -Syu again using the --ignore glibc switch as suggested at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … iki:usrlib.
Things started to get really weird after that. For example, at a certain point during the boot process--I believe when the console is getting ready to switch to framebuffer (or whatever point that's called where screen resolution changes from vga)--and the screen just freezes. The laptop won't accept any keyboard or mouse input and just appears to be hung. I was able to chroot in to the system and cause the sshd daemon to start though, and have discovered that I can ssh in and do things.
I upgraded the kernel again today in an ssh session, which gave some quite strange results: mkinitcipio is searching for modules under /lib, whereas as I understand it, /lib is now supposed to contain nothing and is to be simply a symlink to /usr/lib. But I can't build an init image on this system unless a /modules directory is present under /lib. Well, the /lib directory was there, so I symlinked /usr/lib/modules to /lib and mkinitcpio ran fine after that. So what's up here? Why is mkinitcpio expecting the /modules directory to be under /lib?
Just as weird, there seems to be a newer glibc version. But I can't upgrade to it: I get the message "glibc: /lib exists in filesystem." Now, having read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … iki:usrlib I know that there are suggestions for remedying this. But when I run the commands suggested there to try and find out what packages own files in /lib, it looks to me that all files there are owned by glibc 2.16.0-1:

Long story short, I'm quite confused by this. And I have a barely-working system I need to fix.
Can anyone please offer input on what might be going on with this system? And perhaps offer suggestions for straightening out the mess?
Thanks,
James

Ok. So I'm officially dumb--in case that wasn't already apparent. I thought I'd tried upgrading glibc after I'd deleted the symlink to /usr/lib/modules (I deleted it a couple of times). But I was apparently wrong: after just now deleting it upon reading your post, I see that the upgrade has worked and that the system reboots into its former normal state. So. it looks like it's fixed and like this thread can be marked solved. Still I'm curious: will mkinitcpio continue looking for modules in /lib?
Thanks,
James
