System is no longer updatable because of missing ruby-atk

Hi all,
I can no longer update the system or install new packages because the update process delivers a message that it cannot find ruby-atk.
The problem is, I do not have any ruby packages installed and I cannot install ruby-atk because it cannot be found.
My system ist Manjaro 6.6.54-2 LTS, XFCE.
As I am not a pro but a simple desktop user of Manjaro, can someone tell me how get out of this problem?
Thanks in advance, regards,
Michael

Hi Michaelf

ruby-atk have been dropped from the official repo to the AUR (it is one of my pkgbuilds now)

What is the error you get precisely?

Does pamac search -a ruby-atk show it as [Installed] …? I’d suggest removing it if you don’t need it. It’s not on my system, anyway.

pamac remove ruby-atk

Cheers!

(And, welcome to the Community!). :beers:

The intention is to see why you have ruby-atk and what relies on it.

We could use something like pacman -Qi ruby-atk | grep Required to see its current status, but the requirement during the upgrade may be slightly different.

You may wish to perform the upgrade in the terminal so as to better view the information.

pamac update

or

sudo pacman -Syu

In addition to what cscs said use prepend LANG=C to pamac or pacman to give the out put in english

[michael@Darkstar ~]$ pamac search -a ruby-atk
ruby-atk 4.2.4-1 AUR
Ruby/ATK is a Ruby binding of ATK-1.0.x.
[michael@Darkstar ~]$ pamac remove ruby-atk
Fehler: Ziel nicht gefunden: ruby-atk

After that the system update is working. Thank you very much!
regards, Michael
