[solved] - conflicting dependencies - desktop stage of installation

Goodday,
Installation to hard drive using USB drive with CD 2013.03.01
Installation went well and arch is up and running in text mode.
As is usual for me with Arch distros (or any other for that matter) I choose KDE for the graphical side of things.
Previous installations of arch (December release and February release) have proceeded from this point with no problems.
Today's output from:
pacman -S kde kde-l10n-en_gb
produced - after showing me the packages to be downloaded and allowing me to choose a phonon -
error:unresolvable package conflicts detected
error:failed to prepare transaction (confilcts dependencies)
::kdesk-dev-scripts and kdesdk-scripts are in conflict
Has anyone come across this before? If so how did you get past this sticking point?
Thanks,
Hugh

Well I waited while - overnight in fact.
Went back to my full fresh Arch install with no Desktop Environment
ran reflector to make sure I had a properly synced mirror
issued
pacman -Syyu
accepted the two files offered for today's update
then issued the command
pacman -S kde kde-l10n-en_gb
accepted the default which is everything
chose gstreamer-phonon when offered
then still get the conflicting files whic means the installation does not proceed
pacman -Ss kdesdk-scripts
produces
kdesdk-scripts 4.10.0.2
pacman -Ss kdesdk-dev-scripts
produces
kdesdk-dev-scripts 4.10.1-1
That they have different version numbers is fairly obvious.
Maybe another 24 hours will see the older package disappear.
edit: on my regular fully updated Arch install the package kdesdk-dev-scripts does not exist. So it looks like I can do without it!
another edit: emailed the maintainer who has fixed the conflict.
marking post as solved.

I'm dead in the water, of course. My system's running fine, but pacman updates are borked here ATM.

I did a pacman -Syy *right before* the bash display above. Trying to strive for brevity.
I'm very current - the only packages I *expected* to be upgraded were the kernel and klibc-udev. I was current otherwise as of 6 AM this morning. No idea where this is coming from.
FWIW, I use KDE3 as my primary D/E. It was installed after LXDE, but I didn't remove LXDE.
gnokii is required by kde3-kdepim, so we're talking a good 100 MB of disk trashing. If I have to remove and reinstall both (although the latter IS optional, I guess...).

Conflicting Dependencies [SOLVED]

I'm trying to build and install google-talkplugin from AUR.
I have checked/installed all dependencies except libgl.
I get the unresolvable package conflict error when trying to install it.
I don't want to remove nvidia-utils.
How to resolve this?

No, not prior to taking care of dependencies.

Yes regarding dependencies.
I also prefer to make and install AUR packages by hand as far as never tried any of the "helpers".
Seems to simple to further complicate.

:: kdeedu-libkdeedu and kdeedu-data are in conflict
Any solutions?
Since i'm newbie, the only thing i can think of is forcing the removal of said packages and then re-install the kdeedu group or whole KDE, but it doesn't seem like a good idea.
Edit: also tried another mirror to be sure but nothing changed.
Edit2: I removed kdeedu-data and the 4 packages that relied on it with a simple -R and when the upgrade was complete i just re-installed the kdeedu group package to get the 4 packages i removed earlier.
Some info that might help developers prevent this from happening again: The standard behavior afaik on today's upgrade is pacman asking you to remove the kdeedu-data package and then the upgrade proceeds normally.
In my case the system was about one month old and on my -Syu today i upgraded pacman first. So basically i'm coming from an "older installation".

[solved] wrong dependencies in testing/kdemod vs. kde

Since I installed the new pacman (3.1.0.1) I've got serious problems to install kdemod 4 (http://kdemod.ath.cx/bbs/viewtopic.php?id=406&p=1. If I try to upgrade arch to testing pacman wants to install vanilla-kde, although I've only installed kdemod on my machine:

Btw, I am new (unexpirienced) Arch-er
More or less pacman has a new feature that breaks some packages from installing because they lack the necessary information that pacman 3.1 needs.
as for this particular case I am not sure how to resolve the problem, is qtmod in AUR? I will look and see if I can't come up with a solution. I have nothing better to do today.
edit: looks like this is a problem for kdemod people. they need update the package build with the new information that pacman 3.1 requires. If u wait long enough (couple days) I am sure this will be resolved since pacman 3.1 is in core repository now.

[solved] Unresolvable dependencies, system won't update

Trying to update, haven't done it in about two weeks. There's a new version of pacman, and when I attempt to install it it says :
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict. Remove gcc-libs-multilib? [y/N]
If I say yes, it goes on to do that :
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: gcc-multilib: requires gcc-libs-multilib=4.6.2-7
If I say no, it does this instead :
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib are in conflict
After trying to remove it I realized that gcc-libs was not yet installed on my machine. So I gather it's the newer version and is supposed to replace gcc-libs-multilib. Attempting to remove gcc-libs-multilib manually gives conflicts with pretty much my entire system (the list of conflicting packages is longer than a full-screened terminal). Attempting to remove gcc-multilib gives conflicts with libreoffice-sdk and libtool. However, attempting to remove these two packages throws up a long list of conflicting packages as well. What to do? Force the update?

Change desktop air application installer icon

Hi,
Im making an application in flashbuilder 4.6, and im exporting it to air desktop. The installer has the default icon, i tried putting the icon for all sizes in the descriptor file, without success:
<icon>
        <image16x16>assets/16x16-FF.png</image16x16>
        <image32x32>assets/32x32-FF.png</image32x32>

        <image48x48>assets/48x48-FF.png</image48x48>
        <image57x57>assets/57x57-FF.png</image57x57>
        <image72x72>assets/72x72-FF.png</image72x72>
        <image114x114>assets/114x114-FF.png</image114x114>
        <image128x128>assets/128x128-FF.png</image128x128>
    </icon>
Any help will be appreciated, thanks

I had tried the same in my applications.But it didnt work. So I have moved the png files into src folder and given the path in following manner.
<icon>
        <image16x16>16x16-FF.png</image16x16>
        <image128x128>128x128-FF.png</image128x128>
    </icon>
Since the app-descriptor file and other application level files are present at application level(src), so I have put the related icons over there and other images in assets folder.You may try this.

Windows Remote Desktop Assistant for installation of Portal 7.0

Hi
Can I use Windows Remote Desktop Assistant for installation of NW04s (Portal 7.0) on a Windows Server 2003 (x64)?
SAP recommended earlier not to use the same. But, not aware of any such guidelines now.
I appreciate your views on the same.
Regards
Chandu

The only errors that I've encountered when performing installs over remote desktop were to do with the Oracle installer not finishing correctly. This was particularly evident in oracle 9.2 and I have had no issues with 10g as yet.
Cheers
Craig

Blackberry Desktop Manager - Windows Installer keeps popping up

Recently upgraded from BB Desktop manager 5 to 7 and have been having nothing but issues.
One user constantly receives a "Windows Installer" pop-up looking to configure or reinstall Desktop 5.0.
This does not happen for any other user on this machine.
Windows XP Pro SP3
- Desktop Manger still appears in the Add/Remove programs list
- try to remove from the Add/Remove list and I receive "Option can only be peformed on installed products"
- installed the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility - does not even appear as an installed product in the WMI database
- I have performed a clean uninstall/reinstall
- reinstalled Desktop Manager 5, this only created a 2nd install point, the 1st one still exists.
- deleted the RIM folders from HKLM\Software
- deleted all RIM folders from the client profile (AppData/LocalData, etc...)
- uninstalled and reinstalled .net 3.5
Events generated everytime the client launches:
Detection of product '{2E8131B2-8DAF-41E2-B954-18FD5DEF0B54}', feature 'Device_Manager' failed during request for component '{FE197757-5677-4257-A9D1-A8BD678903EA}

It sounds like someone may have installed the application for their user account only. You may need to remove it from either that account or from the administrator account.

Conflict with Desktop Software in XP

I have just taken possession of a Blackberry Torch 9800 but am unable to connect it to my home computer through Blackberry Desktop Software.
The software and the phone both load perfectly well onto my XP desktop in the office so we know that there is nothing wrong with the phone itself.
The problem appears to be a conflict on my computer, which is a standard Dell computer running on Windows XP ( service pack 3).
So here is the problem.
1) I access the Blackberry site and download the Blackberry Desktop Software which apparently loads and launches as normal. I say "apparently" because whenever I come to close it, it will not close and I need to go to Task Manager to shut it down.
2) It asks me to connect the Blackberry to the USB which then kicks into its "Found New Hardware" wizard, uploads a couple of drivers and then stops, alleging a fault. On checking, one of the drivers fails to have installed itself correctly.
And that's it. Game over. I have never got beyond that.
What I have tried:
1) A complete removal ( i.e. not just using the uninstall tool but also using regedit etc to clear out all RIM files ) and a re-download. No different.
2) As above, but booting up the pc with the blackberry plugged in.
3) A complete removal and insert the disk which came with the phone. It did not autorun I found an .exe file and it kicked into the intializing Blackberry User Tools sequence which hung half way through and got nowhere.
4) I copied the drivers from my Windows XP machine at work and then transferred them to my home pc in an attempt to fool it. It wasn't fooled.
5) I cleaned up the registry with a professional piece of software (Regcure). The computer runs quicker, but no difference was made to this problem.
Have you a suggestion, please?

Hi,
From the history of MSJAV, we can see Microsoft Java Virtual Machine was unsupported since 2004. According to my test, the windows installer installation has no issues. So can you install other program based on windows installer instead of Microsoft Java Virtual Machine as a test. If only the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine failed to install the program, I will suspect that Microsoft Java Virtual Machine originally does not support such actions by design.
Will you see the mapped driver on client PC from windows XP mode?
Make sure you have turned of UAC on the client PCs. When you say "manually map the drive" do you mean "type \\server-ip" on the address bar from "My computer"?
"open my computer
in the address bar type \\server-ip
input credentials
find the shared drive
right click and click map network drive "
From the feedback from other users encounter similar issues but on windows installer installation, disable integration features (under Windows explore\Tools option in a running VM), login to the VM and try again. Also change the network adapter from shared to bridge mode to check the result.
