unable to update manjaro
 

cannot complete transactions
/usr/lib/apdfview/libpdfview_djvu.so
/usr/lib/apdfview/libpdfview_ps.so

You really should post a lot more than that, as that tells us almost nothing.

See the second link in my signature below.

cannot install updates in manjaro (2)
 

My computer is running Manjaro 17.0.5 Gellivara
The pacman symbol shows 898 updates available

I select updates from pacman manager and commit.
System files start to update then stops with the message:-

conflicting files
qpdfview: /usr/lib/qppdfview/libpdfview_djvu.so already exists in file system
qpdfview: /usr/lib/qpdfview/libpdfview_ps.so already exists in file system

Hi Fredeick,

Tell us exactly what you're doing on which version of Manjaro, and the exact error messages you're getting. Thank you.

I believe this might be the same problem as this: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ro-4175632101/

I've reported this post.

That is what the second link in my signature explains AwesomeMachine. Perhaps you should read it before posting.

did you get this in a terminal?
we need the command that produced this output, and the complete output. this looks like an excerpt...

there was no reason to start a new thread for this, but nevermind, i guess LQ's interface can be a bit intimidating for newcomers (and buggy).

so, what i would do if i was in your situation:
let's see which package owns these files.

both commands returned 'file doesnnot exist on the system


pacman -Qo /usr/lib/qppdfview/libpdfview_djvu.so
pacman -Qo /usr/lib/qpdfview/libpdfview_ps.so

Threads have been merged. While the threads are similar, but also slightly different, they do appear to be about the same issue. Please keep things in one thread discussion in the future.

please learn to copy-paste the actual command and its complete output, preferably using code tags. paraphrasing is pointless.

maybe the issue has resolved itself, try the upgrade again.
