Removed from /etc/pacman.conf

SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Run sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack && sudo pacman -Syyu and got these errors:

:: installing boost-libs (1.87.0-3) breaks dependency 'boost-libs=1.86.0' required by pokerth

Any idea how to fix it?

pokerth is an AUR package, so you need to remove it before you update:

sudo pacman -R pokerth

After the update, you can then re-build pokerth against the new boost libraries:

pamac build pokerth

Just be aware of the pokerth package maintainer’s note from 2025-02-20:

For the moment, if you upgrade boost-libs and boost to 1.87.0, for pokerth to continue working you need to downgrade boost & boost-libs to version 1.86.0 and perhaps skip updating them until a fix is available

I’ve moved the discussion to a new topic as outlined.

:100:

Users are responsible for maintaining their own AUR packages.

Hint: Make a list of what packages need to be rebuilt on what for the future. That’s how I learned. :wink:
