Hi @MAYBL8,

Your profile mentions you are using the Unstable branch, yet I a using the Stable branch and I’ve got the exact same version of kpeople5 that the update is trying to install:

$ pamac search kpeople5
kpeople5  5.110.0-1 [Installed]                                                                                                                                                                                                                         extra
A library that provides access to all contacts and the people who hold them

…and I know the Stable branch hasn’t had an update since 2023.10.13. All this leads me to think that your system is very messed up, causing a partially upgraded, non-supported state. And since I know I’ve seen you here before, so you aren’t new heree, you should’ve known that.

Anyhoo, that was actually mentioned in the Stable Updates

So, refresh your mirrors and do the update again, confirming overrides when asked:

pamac checkupdates --force-refresh

Why do you assume my system is messed up. Maybe yours is messed up?

Mine isn’t the one with the errors, though.

Edit:

P.S.: It’s not assuming when it’s based on evidence. Assuming is deciding something without the evidence.

:wink:

Mirrors… why does it always have to be the mirrors …
– :cowboy_hat_face:

What was that adage you mentioned recently?

To assume makes an ass out of u and me.

Thanks for the help
I solved this by removing the offending packages and then updating.

seems to be solved now

The repo’s were finally propogated, I’m guessing.
