Upgrade trashed gimp and reinstalling it breaks libxml2 dependency

[Mirdarthos]

Hi @Melahi,

You’ve not been maintaining your system very well. Kernel 6.11 in the updates have been EOL since December last year which suggests you are very far behind on updates, and this is a Bad Idea^TM with Manjaro as it’s a Rolling release and requires more attention and love than a Point Release such as Debian/Ubuntu.

Also, this:

@Melahi

there were loads of updates recommended but I just selected gimp as don’t use any of the others.

…is a partial upgrade and not supported.

The community repository visible in the screenshot has also been dropped a long time ago, again suggesting a lack of maintenance.

My suggestion would be, especially in your case, to chroot into the system and do a complete sync from there.

Also, please don’t post screenshots of text. Rather:

Tip

When posting terminal output, copy the output and paste it here, wrapped in three (3) backticks, before AND after the pasted text. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:

~~~
pasted text
~~~

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Sed
sollicitudin dolor
eget nisl elit id
condimentum
arcu erat varius
cursus sem quis eros.

Instead of like this:

Sed sollicitudin dolor eget nisl elit id condimentum arcu erat varius cursus sem quis eros.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.

Thereby increasing legibility thus making it easier for those trying to provide assistance.

On this forum here you need to have Trust Level 1 (=TL1) to be able to post screenshots and links in-line.

That’s dumb! Why is that?

Well, that’s because on our old forum we got tons of screenshots of text, links to SPAM, PR0N and other things you don’t want on a forum, so all the new users are prohibited from posting links and pics because of a few bad actors.

Additionally

If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.
