By the way, yay arch... - KC9UDX - 12-23-2023
Of course I run NetBSD on my Pinebooks Pro, but I kept Manjaru on my wife's. She doesn't update it; so twice a year I do. I kind of expected the totally broken boot that I've had before doing this. But this time was bizarre. Halfway through the updates it prompted me for the current user's password. It was at that point I discovered that all user passwords had been deleted/changed/#?
So I used my PBP to create an emergency boot SD and created new passwords for all users on the Manjaru-PBP-in-question.
Now, I can continue updating, but I am faced with "could not satisfy dependencies: kxmlgui required by libkipi - kservice required by libkipi".
What is the way to recover from this, which I presume is due to too much time between updates?

i would try to remove the package and install again
or use the ignore flag to update the rest and then try again without the flag

Thanks. I'll try that.

It did work; I wonder why that package was installed anyway. I'm glad removing it didn't hose the whole system; arch must be improving.
Thanks again.

Well this is infuriating: I installed Manjaru anew with the official image from the website. It works as is, but can't be updated (and thus new packages can't be installed) because it's too far out-of-date. Reason #12 why normally I won't touch "rolling releases" with a ten foot pole.
