Really enjoying tromjaro but im having trouble updating my apps. This seems to come up every time I try and update anything even if I indepently try and update firefox.
Im not sure if you can see the screenshot but it says:
could not satisfy dependencies:
removing hwids breaks dependency ‘hwids’ required by pciutils,
if possible, remove pciutils and retry
removing libosinfo breaks dependency ‘libosinfo’ required by tracker-miners,
if possible, remove tracker-miners and retry
Im not so smart with linux, but would appreciate some help
Thank you
I removed tracker-miners. But by trying to install hwdata automatically made it want to update all the apps i need to update. And when trying to update it says it imvalid or corupted.
I installed it around a year ago and havent used my laptop for 6 months. So trying to figure things out now.
Ok let’s try something else. From what I’ve read this is an issue with moving that package from repos to AUR and then in AUR it got removed. Since you are using an old version of TROMjaro and did not update in so long, you are seeing this conflict.
First open the terminal then paste this
sudo pacman -Syu
It will ask for your password. Then see if it asks you to replace hwids with hwdata - if it does say yes (or “y”). That would fix it. If it doesn’t work try to remove the hwids package via the terminal with the command:
