i try to do pamac remove pipewire-pulse but it says
Preparing…
Checking dependencies…
Error: Failed to prepare transaction:
could not satisfy dependencies:
removing pipewire-pulse breaks dependency ‘pipewire-pulse’ required by manjaro-pipewire
removing pipewire-pulse breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio’ required by pulseaudio-ctl
how do i remove pipewire?
Pamac’s AUR update feature has caused a significant number of problems due to it overwriting existing packages from the repositories. I can’t really think of an upside for this feature, besides allowing a smooth transition for packages removed from the official repositories, which is less important IMO. There’s even a highly-viewed guide about how this feature is problematic.
Correct me if I am wrong, but it should not be too difficult for Pamac to run an additional check on AUR updates to make…
pacman has none of these issues, or any other one I (or you) can point to … aside from ‘confusing syntax’.
Once again … folks should use what they want. I just dont understand fear-mongering around pacman.
