Feb 9, 2018 · @Scimmia I would have loved *not* to ignore the pacnew files or the news if I knew they existed ^^ I suppose my distro maintainers usually do that kind of update for me, though I'm on an abandoned one (ArchLabs). Removed community entry from /etc/pacman.conf as mentioned, working fine now. Thanks everybody . Last edited by pawamoy (2025-03-02 ...

Oct 11, 2018 · Now let's tackle Pacman: For others that do not know, I believe you do know the ROM setup, but just to set the scene for others reading the post that is new to pacman. In normal circumstances: To make a normal MSPacman changed to PCB pacman, one remove the daughterboard, just take the Z80 off the dauthterboard put on main PCB.

May 4, 2010 · Sorry I wasn't clear. Pacman does not remove my configurations that the application creates. I installed wine once and had a hell of a time removing all the entries it made in pcmanfm. I was hoping for something other than deleting them by hand. I don't know much about Shaman though. I'm running OB, so I don't want to drag in any qt deps.

Apr 9, 2018 · yes, typical with pacman pcb's the +5vdc pushes too much power/voltage/heat/etc to the edge connector and burns it out. 75% of all pacman pcb's have additional wire or repair to this part. OP OP

Apr 12, 2018 · This creates a subshell (the parentheses) within which two echo "y" commands are run. The output of that entire subshell is sent to pacman's stdin, so pacman now gets two "y"s in a row which will accomplish what you were trying to do (though I'm making no statement here on whether that is worth doing).

Feb 18, 2018 · I think I need to find a way to install icu.75 onto my system to allow pacman to function correctly and properly update. I really appreciate your time assisting. Last edited by Rurisk (2025-03-27 16:37:11)

Aug 31, 2018 · An alternative might to be have multiple repos and tell pacman to install packages from one of them. Hypothetical example : pacman.conf has entries for stable, test1 , test2 and test3 stable repo is listed first, so pacman will use the packages in that by default . foobar, barfoo and bigmess are present in all 4 repos in different versions
