I’m on the stable branch of Manjaro with kernel v.6.1.55-1 and KDE v.5.27.8. Upon running:
pacman-mirrors -f5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
I’m asked if I wish to replace kirigami-addons with extra/kirigami-addons5. Whether or not I accept this change, the upgrade is failing nonetheless with a kirigami-addons5 and kirigami-addons are in conflict error.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
Remove kirigami-addons as it has been replaced by kirigami-addons5 and continue with your update
sudo pacman -R kirigami-addons
then run your update in terminal, TTY, pamac, however you go about it.
Is that the only error message that you are getting? It sounds related to the chain of dependencies around kpeoplevcard. From the stable update announcement:
I have the same issue and it does seem to relate to kpeoplevcard

Typing “Y” makes no difference, kirigami-addons5 and kirigami-addons are in conflict.
Moderator edit: In the future, please use proper formatting: [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text
Just for completeness, could you show us the output from sudo pacman -Syuu when you choose Y to the question of Replace kirigami-addons with extra/kirigami-addons5?
After the failure, you are asked to remove kirigami-addons. You chose ‘N’ …
Choose ‘Y’ to remove kirigami-addons, and the command should continue.
Here is the command sequence in context:
sudo pacman -R kdeconnect colord-kde
sudo pacman -Syu kpeoplevcard
# Replace kirigami-addons with extra/kirigami-addons5? [Y/n]
Y
# kirigami-addons5 and kirigami-addons are in conflict. Remove kirigami-addons? [y/N]
Y
sudo pacman -Syu kdeconnect colord-kde
I hope this resolves your issue. Cheers.

You have unsupported packages installed. Remove them.
Deprecated. Still in AUR for now, but shouldnt be on any system.
Same as above.
Doesnt exist in the repos or the AUR. Shouldnt be on your system either.
ex:
sudo pacman -Rns libkipi kipi-plugins kpmcore3
These are not from current Manjaro repos, but kpmcore is. I don’t know if they are needed in your case, but before updating you must remove them. In similar cases it was recommeded here to remove them with ignoring dependencies, i.e. using “pacman -Rdd”. This is not the ideal approach, but as long as no-one has a better idea, this means to run:
sudo pacman -Rdd kipi-plugins kpmcore3 libkipi && sudo pacman -Syuu kpmcore
kipi-plugins and libkipi are still in AUR, so if ultimatively needed they could be installed from AUR. You could check upfront what packages might require them:
pacman -Qi kipi-plugins
pacman -Qi libkipi
Comunity repo has been merged with extra already a while ago, a sign you have not taken care on pacnew files.
Thanks all for your help its all better now and I can update successfully. I’ve got a laptop with the same issues and I should be able to deal with that now.
" Comunity repo has been merged with extra already a while ago, a sign you have not taken care on pacnew files."
That was helpful. I’ve setup the packnew files as described. I agree I’ve been less than attentive and I wondered what else I should be doing that I’ve missed?
All the best
pacnew files are mentioned when they are created, during updates.
You can also print them with pacdiff -o
There are also hooks and things available in the AUR.
And manjaro-pacnew-checker in the repos if you want a GUI thing.
