I’m trying to remove the audacity-wxgtk2 package because it needs jack2 which is holding up the system update process due to not playing nicely with pipewire-jack. When I try and remove audacity-wxgtk2, I get this error. How should I remove it? [image]

Can't Remove Audacity-wxgtk2?

Hi, I had the same dependency problem and I did the following: I ran sudo pacman -Sdd pipewire-jack This reinstalled pipewire-jack and removed jack2 but left lib32-jack2. So I forcefully removed only lib32-jack2 with sudo pacman -Rdd lib32-jack2 Then I proceeded with the update as usual and it asked me for a provider for lib32-jack.so. I chose pipewire and was able to update successfully. This way you don’t have to remove other packages like portaudio and fluidsynth which depend on lib32…
