I've hit a wall with the software updates for Manjaro linux on the desktop. I would like to perform system updates, I go to the update app, or the updates app notifies me of my many outstanding software updates and I start the update process. However, after the updates have downloaded, I usually get a message saying that some of my python packages depend on other python packages and will have a "dependency cycle". I "commit" that transaction in agreement that I'm aware of that issue, but it always happens that the "transaction fails".
I have tried doing partial upgrades of only certain packages as a workaround, but it still fails with a failed transaction.
Here is a run of pacman -Syu:
sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date

I can still install individual software packages, happily. But OS updates are frozen in place, and probably a security issue at this point on my local desktop. How can I handle dependency cycles and failed transactions like the above during the standard package updates process?

I can still install individual software packages, happily. But OS updates are frozen in place, and probably a security issue at this point on my local desktop. How can I handle dependency cycles and failed transactions like the above during the standard package updates process?

Werepython-pyasn1andpython-dateutilinstalled withpacmanor something else likepip? Have you tried moving those libraries out of the way (or deleting them) to see if that allowspacmanto update successfully?

I've hit a wall with the software updates for Manjaro linux on the desktop. I would like to perform system updates, I go to the update app, or the updates app notifies me of my many outstanding software updates and I start the update process. However, after the updates have downloaded, I usually get a message saying that some of my python packages depend on other python packages and will have a "dependency cycle". I "commit" that transaction in agreement that I'm aware of that issue, but it always happens that the "transaction fails".
I have tried doing partial upgrades of only certain packages as a workaround, but it still fails with a failed transaction.
Here is a run of pacman -Syu:

I've hit a wall with the software updates for Manjaro linux on the desktop. I would like to perform system updates, I go to the update app, or the updates app notifies me of my many outstanding software updates and I start the update process. However, after the updates have downloaded, I usually get a message saying that some of my python packages depend on other python packages and will have a "dependency cycle". I "commit" that transaction in agreement that I'm aware of that issue, but it always happens that the "transaction fails".
I have tried doing partial upgrades of only certain packages as a workaround, but it still fails with a failed transaction.
Here is a run of pacman -Syu:
sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
I can still install individual software packages, happily. But OS updates are frozen in place, and probably a security issue at this point on my local desktop. How can I handle dependency cycles and failed transactions like the above during the standard package updates process?

Just glancing through pacman's output, and I see a lot of "/bla/bla exists in in file system" messages. That's probably your problem right there. IDK how this might have happened, but pacman doesn't like overwriting files unless it knows for sure that the package you're installing "owns" said files.
I believe you can override this check with the --force option, although you should do so WITH CAUTION, as files might be overwritten with incompatible versions. Also, you'll have to do this everytime you bump into such a conflict. This means you'll have to do this EVERY TIME you update either python-dateutil or python-pyasn1.
A more permanent solution might be to delete these files before updating the packages. However, THIS IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS than the last solution, since it *might* destroy your system (depending on which files you're forced to delete). If you go down this route, make sure you have good backups of all of your most important files, and be sure to keep a live CD/DVD/Flash Drive/whatever handy in case you need to repair and/or reinstall your system.
Here's a handy way to get a list of conflicting files:
while [ : ]; do echo y; done | sudo pacman -Syu | grep 'exists in filesystem$' | cut -f 2- -d ' ' | sed 's/ exists in filesystem$//g'
You can use the output of the above to make a backup copy of the conflicting files (perhaps placing them into a tarball). Said list can also delete these files. Here's a nice script you can use to backup and delete the files in one go:
FILES="$(while [ : ]; do echo y; done | pacman -Syu | grep 'exists in filesystem$' | cut -f 2- -d ' ' | sed 's/ exists in filesystem$//g')"
echo "$FILES" | xargs -0 -d \n -s 9999999999 tar -caf /backup-broken-files.tar || exit
echo "$FILES" | xargs -o -d \n -s 9999999999 rm
I should warn you: I used to have Arch, until recently when I switched to Fedora (mostly out of curiosity). That said, since I no longer have Arch, I can't test this script, so use it at your own risk. Also, for this script to work, you will (of course) need to run it AS ROOT.
If you wish to apply compression to the tarball that will be made, just add an appropriate extension - such as .xz, .gz, or .bz2 - to the end of the filename, and tar will automatically use the appropriate compression.
Hopefully, someone will know a safer way to fix this issue (perhaps making pacman think these files are *already* owned by the packages Kzqai is trying to install/update). Perhaps you should wait for better answers before proceeding.
PS: You'll probably get a warning from xargs saying "value x for -s option should be <= y", where "x" and "y" are numbers. Don't worry, you can safely ignore this warning.

I should warn you: I used to have Arch, until recently when I switched to Fedora (mostly out of curiosity). That said, since I no longer have Arch, I can't test this script, so use it at your own risk. Also, for this script to work, you will (of course) need to run it AS ROOT.
If you wish to apply compression to the tarball that will be made, just add an appropriate extension - such as .xz, .gz, or .bz2 - to the end of the filename, and tar will automatically use the appropriate compression.
Hopefully, someone will know a safer way to fix this issue (perhaps making pacman think these files are *already* owned by the packages Kzqai is trying to install/update). Perhaps you should wait for better answers before proceeding.
PS: You'll probably get a warning from xargs saying "value x for -s option should be <= y", where "x" and "y" are numbers. Don't worry, you can safely ignore this warning.

Just glancing through pacman's output, and I see a lot of "/bla/bla exists in in file system" messages. That's probably your problem right there. IDK how this might have happened, but pacman doesn't like overwriting files unless it knows for sure that the package you're installing "owns" said files.
I believe you can override this check with the --force option, although you should do so WITH CAUTION, as files might be overwritten with incompatible versions. Also, you'll have to do this everytime you bump into such a conflict. This means you'll have to do this EVERY TIME you update either python-dateutil or python-pyasn1.
A more permanent solution might be to delete these files before updating the packages. However, THIS IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS than the last solution, since it *might* destroy your system (depending on which files you're forced to delete). If you go down this route, make sure you have good backups of all of your most important files, and be sure to keep a live CD/DVD/Flash Drive/whatever handy in case you need to repair and/or reinstall your system.
Here's a handy way to get a list of conflicting files:
while [ : ]; do echo y; done | sudo pacman -Syu | grep 'exists in filesystem$' | cut -f 2- -d ' ' | sed 's/ exists in filesystem$//g'
You can use the output of the above to make a backup copy of the conflicting files (perhaps placing them into a tarball). Said list can also delete these files. Here's a nice script you can use to backup and delete the files in one go:
FILES="$(while [ : ]; do echo y; done | pacman -Syu | grep 'exists in filesystem$' | cut -f 2- -d ' ' | sed 's/ exists in filesystem$//g')"
echo "$FILES" | xargs -0 -d \n -s 9999999999 tar -caf /backup-broken-files.tar || exit
echo "$FILES" | xargs -o -d \n -s 9999999999 rm
