Cannot install bauh

MediaMogul · 06-06-2021, 03:17 PM

As most probably know Pamac is not currently due to the resent Pacman 6.0 update. I thought I would install Bauh in the mean time, but I keep getting the below. I honestly have no idea how to resolve it without possibly breaking something else. I'm running AcroLinuxD with the Plasma desktop. Thanks

that means python-colorama is already installed, but a different version (not 0.4.4-3). I have no idea how is your system configured and why does it want to try to use a different version.
Most probably you can force install the newer one, but you need to check if that breaks anything.

I found that I can use yay -Sdd bauh and install. I'm not seeing any issues and I've done a couple of reboots and logoffs since.
