Some packages may not have been explicitly installed (e.g. difference between pacman -Qet and pacman -Qdt) but I doubt the OP is worried about that nicety at this moment
Makes no difference when reinstalling a package...
Also,  "pacman -Qqk" will give you a list of packages with missing files.

  • Libreoffice upgrade error: /usr/share/icons/locolor/... already exists

    In trying to upgrate libreoffice today, I get a bunch of errors about files in /usr/share/icons already existing. I checked a bunch and they weren't owned, so I started removing them using `updatedb` followed by `locate libreoffice` to track down those various icon folders and remove them. Unfortunately, the upgrade still fails with complaints about files already existing in /usr/share/icons/locolor/16x16 and ../32x32.
    The problem is that /usr/share/icons/locolor is completely empty. `sudo ls -la /usr/share/icons/locolor` returns nothing, and `locate libreoffice` doesn't get any hits at that location.
    Is there somewhere else pacman stores a cache or tmp file of what it thinks exists in the filesystem? I already did `pacman -Rsc libreoffice-common` and `pacman -Scc` to remove cached packages. No I'm simply trying to install fresh and I get the same errors.
    This is on a computer that I haven't used in quite some time... could a skip of some intermediate version of libreoffice have caused some issues in the various icon locations or package contents? I'm stumped as to why it would think something exists that doesn't
    Any suggestions?

    @Roken: re-read my post to see what the problem is. I have deleted any instances of libreoffice-* inside /usr/share/icons.
    The problem is that pacman is complaining about /usr/share/icons/locolor/.../libreoffice-* files that do not exist. /usr/share/icons/locolor empty and yet pacman thinks there's files in it!
    Per the rest of your comment, appreciated. I practice the same -- for libreoffice, I figure without it installed, I can delete anything to do with libreoffice (I had no custom setups, templates, etc.). I wouldn't dream of it with various libraries, as you mention, without checking the Arch website of forums first.
    So... how to figure out why pacman is seeing "ghost files"?

    IF THE RESET DOESN'T WORK, FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug (very important)
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.

  • I am unable to remove some addons/extension as i dnt see only disable option n nt the remove option there. What should i do?

    There are some addons/extensions which are not compatible with my current version of mozilla. I am seeing the "type error: components.classes[cid]" evry time while starting the firefox. So, i want to remove those incompatible addons. Those are google gears 0.5.36.0,speed boat video downloader2.2.9,widgi toolbar flatform4.4,you tube downloader toolbar 4.4. I went to tools>options>manage addons. But i cant see remove option for above mentioned addons, only disable option i am seeing. What should i do then?

    Those extensions were probably installed like plug-ins and since you see them as extensions you will probably have to uninstall each of them through the Control Panel, see directions for various systems in
    * http://code.google.com/apis/gears/install.html
    If that solves your problem, please mark as solved or post which ones did not uninstall. Very important since I don't see similar questions and marked as solved helps people find solutions.

    I'm not recommending anyone force installing anything, but I would have tried that by now, me being the idiot I am
    that's not an option...
    there are a lot of packages
    I mean just to test it out. We'll figure out what to do about all of them later

  • Error message: "Remove and check cartridge"--what should I do? (officejet 6110xi all-in-one)

    I got a printer (as above) in a yard sale.  When I first turned it on, it had an error message: "Remove and check cartridge".  I pulled out and looked at the cartridge, nothing seemed wrong (except perhaps the mildly inexplicable twist tie). Then I tried cleaning the contacts, did a hard restart, and looked for damage to the flex (there was none I could see), as suggested here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-printing-questions/Need-help/m-p/71/highlight/true#M8
    Still no love.

  • TS3320 My Ipad 2 suddenly have been giving me the "could not open" mas when I tap my safari  icon, what should I do now?  I recently added the Skype app, could that be the reason?

    Should I be clearing my history and cookies?  My I pad just started giving me the "could not open page" message and I am not sure why. Not very computer literate.

    Do a FACTORY RESTORE...not from your back...
    Make sure you DON'T allow iTunes to  back-up your Ipad before this as it will Replace your back up with the funcky New app arrangement and soo on..
    Now after the Factory restore, restart iTunes and do a restore from the Back-p. AGAIN don't let iTunes do a back-up prior to this...

  • [SOLVED] Lowered Chromium Tab/Close Icons

    Hello, I just recently re-installed arch and Chromium on my computer.
    I installed and set the gtk theme to Futura-Blue (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=futura-theme).
    When doing this the Icons next to the website name, as well as the close icon in Chromium lowered about 3 pixels or so.
    I have tried setting the gtk theme to others and am currently using Zukitwo, deleting my ~/.config/gtk-2.0 and gtk-3.0, uninstalling chromium and removing it's settings, removing /usr/share/themes/Futura-*, and have been searching the forums for a while.
    Here is a picture of an example:
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Edit: there also seems to be an issue with the insertion cursor being too tall.
    Picture for reference:
    Edit 2: I also get this error frequently in chromium.

    I actually swtiched to firefox because it's not a big deal. It can be marked as Woked Around or something.
    Edit: Solved by deleting old openbox/chromium cache files in ~/.cache
