Installing nvidia-utils (465.27-1) breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=460.67' required by linux414-nvidia etc

I just tried to update my system, and got these errors:

As you can see, installing icu (69.1-1) breaks dependency 'icu<69.0' required by manjaro-settings-manager is another error.

Try

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

@Wollie

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

I forgot to mention that just prior to doing this I tried updating and got mirror timeout errors, so I updated my mirrorlist by going to Arch Linux - Pacman Mirrorlist Generator

So now it looks like this:

[jr@fm ~]$ cat /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
##
## Arch Linux repository mirrorlist
## Generated on 2021-05-02
##

## Australia
Server = https://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://archlinux.mirror.digitalpacific.com.au/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://mirror.launtel.net.au/repo/arch/$repo/os/$arch

Server = https://syd.mirror.rackspace.com/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.swin.edu.au/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

[jr@fm ~]$ 

So maybe I should just run sudo pacman -Syyuu

I tried that and got the same errors.

Have you seen this:

[Testing Update] 2021-04-26 - Kernels, Mesa, Wine, Ruby, JDK, KDE-Dev

Known issues and solutions This is a wiki post; please edit as necessary. Please, consider subscribing to the Testing Updates Announcements RSS feed New issues: In the last Testing Update we got reports of broken Nvidia drivers Therefore the Nvidia driver got downgraded to 460.73.01 [production branch release] as requested here. People who had already updated to 465 series need to do a sudo pacman -Syyuu to get the proper drivers, as some of our Kernels got updated again with this update…

[jamesray]

All I did to get that generated mirror list was to go to:

https://archlinux.org/mirrorlist/

Clicked on Australia, and used the defaults (show http, https, ip4). And then deleted duplicate servers that had both http and https.

[jamesray]

Thanks, no I had not.

In Manjaro that’s not the correct procedure. You need to use manjaro’s tool which is

pacman-mirrors

An example of an recommended syntax of the command for updating the mirrors is given in my first post. Otherwise you have wrong repo’s in your mirror list! This could lead to a broken system!

[jamesray]

OK thanks, will do.

@jamesray

## Australia

Don’t do this. This is Manjaro linux, not Arch.
Switching to Arch mirrors will give you trouble.

[jamesray]

@Wollie

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

Got it, currently I am running sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyuu.
