Description

When performing a system upgrade today I encountered the above error message. It appears that this package has been renamed from its
predecessor libutil-linux, however the change is not visible on any 32-bit Parabola repos.

This package is not available for 32-bit arch:

pacman -sS util-linux-libs

returns nothing.

There has apparently been a change in naming convention, as the package "libutil-linux" does exist –

pacman -Q | grep util-linux
libutil-linux 2.35.1-1.nonsystemd1
util-linux 2.35.1-1.nonsystemd1

I can confirm the same error. Here is the output I get on my i686 machine.

#2

Updated by Drag0nFly over 3 years ago

The dependency for "util-linux-libs" appears to have been changed recently; as glib2 now installs. However, on my 2nd Parabola system (x86_64) the package has already been replaced.

pacman -sS util-linux-libs
nonsystemd/util-linux-debug 2.36-4.nonsystemd1
    Detached debugging symbols for util-linux
nonsystemd/util-linux-libs 2.36-4.nonsystemd1 [installed]
    util-linux runtime libraries
core/util-linux-libs 2.36.1-4 [installed: 2.36-4.nonsystemd1]
    util-linux runtime libraries

There is something strange going on with the i686 repos anyway, since more and more packages report that the locally installed versions (previously fetched from standard repos) are newer.

This is no longer an issue for me at least. I was able to perform a system upgrade.
