can't update software with package manager

could not satisfy dependencies:

  • removing libpamac breaks dependency ‘libpamac’ required by libpamac-flatpak-plugin
  • removing libpamac breaks dependency ‘libpamac>=11.6.3’ required by pamac-cli

Hi and welcome,

Thats only part of the output.

Without more information we can only guess as to why.

My first one is unsupported third party packages (such as from the AUR).

If you have trouble obtaining more info then please commit the transaction in the terminal and copy the outcome here.

pamac update

I will also attach a guide that will include how to format code and so forth.

…or a partial update, like installing with pacman -S

Try first to update using pacman:

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyuu

For -S to give a partial update you’d first have to run -Sy (or a similar command).
