[SOLVED] Safe way to replace supporting package

Im trying to upgrade "gdrivefs" package from AUR where dependency "fusepy" is replaced to "python2-fusepy-git".
Upgrade fails because "python2-fusepy-git" conflicts with "fusepy" - they share same file.
Uninstallig of "fusepy" is tricky, because it intends to uninstall "gdrivefs" itself and messes hierarcy of dependency.
So what is the safest way to upgrade package and replacing one dependency with another ?

I don't quite understand your situation, but here's what I do sometimes:
If I have a package I need to replace with another and I'm absolutely sure I know what I'm doing then I'll "rip" out the old package then immediately install the new package. To uninstall one package and one package only, use the command:
pacman -Rdd fusepy # WARNING: This leaves your dependencies in a unsettled state
Then, immediately install the new package that replaces the old one. This will correct the dependency issue that you just created by ripping out the old package. That's it!
EDIT: Trilby's method below is the better non-lazy way.

  • Best way to apply Support Packages to Solution Manager

    We have a single instance dual stack for SOLMAN 4 running. I want to apply Suppot packages, I need some suggestion what would be the best way to do this, the way I am thinking to proceed for this is -
    1. Do kernel and igs upgrade thru JSPM
    2. Apply ABAP Support packages and then,
    3. apply JAVA support packages
    Is it possible to apply ABAP support packages with JSPM?
    Any suggestion would be helpful

    Patch your abap stack first then the java...
    No, its not possible to pacth abap with JSPM (JAVA Support Package Manager)

  • There's any way of knowing what Support Package we had implemented?

    Hi!
    I need to know if exists a kind of "history" of the system. I mean, a trx that shows you when you implemented X support package and when.
    My problem is that I need to implement some oss notes to a z program that is a copy of an standard. The z program was created (copied) some years ago.
    I need to know the Support Package that we had at that time because I need to check if the prerequisites applies to the Z version.
    I you don't understand what I need, please tell me...
    Thanks in advance!
    Bet

    If you got the <b>SNOTE</b> transaction, you don't need to care about support packages -;)
    Just pass the OSS note and the system is going to tell you if it can be implemented -:D
    Greetings,
    Blag.

  • Support Package is obsolete

    Hi there,
    I've been upgrading the SAP Solution Manager EHP1 from support package 19
    to 24, but i have a serious problem and i was not able to find a solution
    neither at SAP Support Portal nor at SAP SDN.
    Actually, the OCS SAPKW70020/21/22/23 were not applied and the next applied was SAPKW70101.
    In this way, i'm not able to proceed with the upgrade cause there is that dependence.
    Does anybody know how i can solve this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dany Anderson

    That means that your system was upgraded to EHP1, those packages are now irrelevant... you'll have to apply Support packages from Solman EHP1 instead
    Read the documentation regarding applying EHP1 using SPAM/SAINT

  • Easy way to replace images?

    Hi, I am using Pages 09 for a document with some diagrams and different images that I have. I have sized them the way I want. My problem is that I have updated some of these images, changed some colors, text etc in the images, but they are the same size and the same filename. Is there any easy way to replace these old images with the new updated version? Is there some way to re-link them as you can in InDesign?
    I tried to just copy an image from Finder, then selecting the old image and pasting, hoping that the size would be adjusted but it did not: the new image was huuuge.
    Thanks!

    As far as I remember, just replace the old files by the new ones in the document's file.
    If it is a flat file, rename it
    xxx.pages.zip
    double clic to expand it
    Now, in both original format you have now a package.
    ctrl click its icin > Show Package Contents.
    After that, you will see the picture files.
    For safe, move the old ones in a folder.
    Move the new ones in the package.
    Close the package
    Double click to open it.
    It all worked fine you will see the new pictures.
    Maybe one day I will write a script to automate the task.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I have checked another system which is also ehp7 based on NW740 0005, the view "V_DSH_TF_DETAIL" totally doesn't exist, but that is oracle database, here in my case is DB2 database, I have searched for SAP OSS but seems no sap notes for it.
    Do you have any idea how to solve this problem? Big thanks!
    Best regards,
    Fresh man

    Hi Ashutosh,
    Many thanks for your reply, yes this definitely solve my problem.
    But I feel quite confused what's the real reason.
    Several weeks ago, I update a system (EHP7+Oracle) from 74002 to 74005, with SUM, no such problem, however this time, its EHP7+DB2 10.5, from 74002 to 74004, with SPAM, met this kind of problem...
    The support packages are totally the same...
    is it because I should upgrade from 02 to 05 directly? 04 has problem?
    or I should update with SUM instead of SPAM?
    or it is because of DB2??
    or I should involve other packages like something like ST into the update queue?
    Best regards,
    Fresh

    Hello Prashant.
    Check this supporting SAP note 1010640. It will solve your problem.
    This is typical problem when you upgrade from < SP8 to higher version.
    You need to Undeploy the CAF components from the system using SDM first and then reply the patches from JSPM.
    It should go with out errors.
    Let us know if this worked.

  • Is this a "safe" way to upgrade to lion and transfer apps/data to new imac?

    I have an older imac running 10.6.8 and I am considering buying a new one.
    I read a link with guidleines to upgrade to lion. My question is:
    After upgrading to lion, I am going to buy a new imac and want to move to the new imac with the least inconvenience. I have a lot of music app/usb interfaces so the time to reconfigure everything would be very time consuming.
    So is the "safe" way to do it?
    Do a time machine backup of current configuration.
    Follow the link I saw outlining upgrading from 10.6.8 to lion on my current imac.
    Get everything working again on the current imac with mountain lion.
    Do a time machine backup of the lion configuration.
    Get the new imac and on first boot, elect to restore from the time machine backup wiping out what came installed on the new imac.
    Another time machine backup on the new imac.
    I should be done?
    or is there a better /safer way?
    I have been putting this off for almost year because of the number of apps I am running and devices I have connected. a short list.
    file servers off firewire 800 and 400 ( I know I will need the thunderbolt to firewire adapters).
    approx 12-18 usb devices all connected either directly or daisy chained through usb controllers connected to usb controllers.
    about 10 external USB drives.
    vmware
    midi interfaces for piano/guitar.
    m-audio fast track ultra
    multiple DVD/blu-ray reader/writers
    Hence my concern for a smooth transition
    thanks in advance.

    There is really no need to update the older iMac running 10.6 to Lion, especially if you have multiple backups of your User Data. You can easliy move or migrate data from any one of your External HDs or Server to the new iMac.
    As for your current iMac:
    If you plan on selling the older iMac, Lion is not transferable and you will want to sell it with a clean install of 10.6 and let the new owner upgrade.
    If you plan on keeping the older iMac around for others to use and it supports Mountain Lion, then in my humble opinion Mountain Lion is the better upgrade.
    As for your other devices:
    • Yes, Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter
    • Yes, external USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices are backwards compatible
    • Sorry, I don't use vmware
    • Sorry, I don't use midi interfaces
    • Sorry, I don't use m-audio
    • Yes, my external DVD drives work with various Mac's running 10.6 thru 10.8
    Sorry I can't better answer your Audio questions. If no one else comes along with the answers here, then you might try starting another ASC question focused on those transitions.

  • Week view and task list solutions? Solved: a way to sync notes to Mac.

    I've been using a Palm Tungsten T5 for years and routinely rely on the Palm's Calendar week view feature and task list. The week view is indispensable to see where I can fit in appointments. Are there any ways to achieve the same functionalities on the iPhone, whether using built-in iPhone apps or third party apps? The task list would have to include item priorities, due dates, alarms, and ideally repeating events.
    I have found a way to sync notes from the iPhone to my Mac using MarkSpace's The Missing Sync for iPhone; notes are synced to the MarkSpace "notebook" application, where you can edit the notes (and copy and paste) and sync them back to the iPhone. This doesn't sync notes with any Apple applications, though.
    If I could solve the week view and task list omissions, I could see my way to replace my Palm with an iPhone. (And when ePocrates releases a full suite for the iPhone, I'll be all set.) But in the absence of these, I'll have to keep using a Palm.

    I'm in the same boat, unfortunately.
    As a life long Palm-User the PIM-functionalities of iCal can only be described as "rudimentary". It is nowhere near DateBk6 for example. And I would be just fine if it would come close to say 50% of it's functionality. Right now it's at about 25%.
    - no repeating tasks?
    - no tasks+calendar in one view?
    - no week view?
    - no icons for event/task categories?
    Come on Apple, such a great device with the amazing screen resolution, horizontal view etc. and you are not taking opportunity of it and get beat by 10 year old PDA's?

  • Release BI 7.0 front-end add-on for SAP GUI 7.10, Support Package 700

    Hi guys,
    In SAP note 1238872 the release of new support package has been mentioned (Quote: "Download the BI 7.0 front-end add-on for SAP GUI 7.10, Support Package 700 from the SAP Service Marketplace.")
    So, can someone tell me, when this Support Package will be released?
    (At the moment the last version provided in download area is 6.02)
    Kind regards
    Markus

    Thanks, but my question was not how can I workaround, cause I was able to read that note. (Unfortunatly the workaround solves the problem for the query designer only and the error still persists when executing the query)
    However, can some one please tell me, when the Support Package 7.00 will be released?

    As already mentioned, the best is to apply a complete Stack by the way you should do the complete job and update to EHP1 because your system will be still low in some SP's.
    If you have done SP's installations per components and not per stacks then you could face problems after or during SP's installations so it will be way better to use the Stack Strategy.
    But if you think you should go this way then in SPAM you can review New Packages and once there, every package will show up there prerequisites or level of the components (ex: SAPBASIS, ST_SER, ETC) that are necesary to be able to install any component SP's.
    It is extremely important to read the Notes regarding the SP's, their dependencies and possible problems with some of them, for example, some SAPBASIS SP's cannot be applied alone or up to certain level because there are known problems and you should go one level up or down to avoid this problems.
    Either way I have applied Stacks since they come out and it is better to use this strategy in our Solman with no problems at all.
    Have a nice day,
