  • Pacman: error: duplicated database entry

    2 answers



I issue



$ pacman -Su
:: Starting full system upgrade...
error: duplicated database entry 'python2-cairo'
there is nothing to do


So I have a look at /var/lib/pacman/local



$ ls /var/lib/pacman/local/ | grep cairo
cairo-1.15.12-1
cairomm-1.12.2-2
python2-cairo-1.17.0-1
python2-cairo-1.17.0-2
python-cairo-1.17.0-2


How can I:



  • See why python2-cairo-1.17.0-1 and python2-cairo-1.17.0-1 are both installed (what packages depend on them)


  • Get rid of python2-cairo-1.17.0-1


  • Fix the duplicated database entry error...

          I hadd a look at this and tried with:



          $ sudo mv /var/lib/pacman/local/python2-cairo-1.17.0-1/ ~/tmp/


          Now the error is no longer appearing, but I'm not quite sure if I left anything broken behind



          --



          I followed @jasonwryan advice, pacman -Syu seems to wokr fine, but then I tried with



          sudo pacman -Qkk | grep mismatch


          and found several files under /usr/lib/python2.7/ Modification time mismatch warnings. But apart from that everything seems to be ok

            Run a full update: -Syu and then check for issues with -Qkk.
