Unable to update

[jl4]

When I attempt to update via package manager or terminal I am getting an error for unresolved dependencies. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Forum!

@jl4

Remove pamac-cli-dev? [y/N] n

You should have answered “yes” to that, since

@jl4

pamac-cli and pamac-cli-dev are in conflict

I would suggest to use pacman for updating your system: sudo pacman -Syu.
Remove any package related to pamac that has dev in its name, these packages will be replaced by the “regular” version of pamac.

I’ve tried using the terminal and removing pamac-cli-dev

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

:: removing pamac-cli-dev breaks dependency ‘pamac-cli-dev=10.0.0-1.0’ required by pamac-gtk-dev

[bill_t]

Then remove pamac-gtk-dev first

sudo pacman -R pamac-gtk-dev

and continue with the system update.

After the update has finished and in case pamac isn’t installed, you can install it by running

sudo pacman -Syu pamac-gtk

[jl4]

That worked! Thank you so much!
