I think its a problems with dependencies.

lib32-audit and dozens of other 32-bit packages were dropped from the repos to the AUR recently. Remove it as nothing in the repos requires it.

Temporarily remove transcode until after you update your repo packages. Then when you update your AUR package separately after, there will be no issue as the latest version depends on libjpeg-turbo instead of the old libjpeg.

No offense, but you do know — or at any rate, you should know — that Manjaro is a (curated) rolling-release distribution, and that it therefore must be kept up-to-date.

… is the wrong command. Never use yy unless you’re switching branches, and uu means that you are going to allow package downgrades.

Also, if you have not updated your system in a long time, then you must first update your mirror list before updating the system. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

sudo pacman-mirrors -f

lib32-audit and transcode have been dropped from the repositories. Remove them first. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

sudo pacman -Rns lib32-audit transcode

I will leave the Nvidia problem to someone with more knowledge about that than me — I don’t have any Nvidia hardware in my system.

When pacman asks you to replace packages with others, say yes because those packages have replaced other packages in the official repos. Also, any of those packages with mhwd-nvidia-XXXxx are just hardware database entries. It is not asking you to replace the actual drivers.

Thank you for your reply,

I get an error
sudo pacman -Rns lib32-audit transcode
checking dependencies…

:: removing lib32-audit breaks dependency ‘lib32-audit’ required by lib32-pam

That’s not in the repo anymore either. Remove it. :wink:

Should I also remove libjpeg?

I get an error ?

pacman -Rns lib32-audit transcode
error: target not found: lib32-audit

11

That’s because you had already removed lib32-audit.

It’s a simple command with two package names as targets. You’ve already removed the first one, so now use the command on the second target. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

sudo pacman -Rns transcode

@ben75

Thank you, I will do that.

@Aragorn

Thank you . That fix the problem, it downloading the update now.
