Support

Hello,

I am getting this when trying to update

:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing nvidia-utils (510.68.02-1) breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=510.60.02' required by linux516-nvidia

How can I fix? Thanks

Have you tried through Manjaro Settings Manager → Kernels?

Yes, right after the command line failed. I am on testing branch if that matters im not sure.

5.16 is still supported AFAIK. So the issue would come from either:

  • driver packages’ dependencies not updated yet
  • unaligned mirror

The latter is faster to check.

sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5
sudo pacman -Syu

Thanks but ive tried

sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5
