[SOLVED] System upgrade

I am using LXDE when upgrade system recently:

:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace sdl2 with extra/sdl2-compat? [Y/n] Y
:: Replace webrtc-audio-processing with extra/webrtc-audio-processing-0.3? [Y/n] Y
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
:: libfm-gtk3-1.4.1-1 and libfm-gtk2-1.3.2-1 are in conflict. Remove libfm-gtk2? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing libxml2 (2.15.1-5) breaks dependency 'libxml2.so=2-64' required by rest

EITHER try to remove libfm-gtk2:
sudo pacman -Rs libfm-gtk2
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing libfm-gtk2 breaks dependency 'libfm-gtk2' required by lxpanel
:: removing libfm-gtk2 breaks dependency 'libfm-gtk2' required by pcmanfm

OR remove /usr/lib/libxml2.so then upgrade system:
a same error of ":: installing libxml2 (2.15.1-5) breaks dependency 'libxml2.so=2-64' required by rest"

How can I upgrade?

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Re: [SOLVED] System upgrade

what is "rest"? I don't find it in packages or aur lists. Maybe you can remove it.
Check "pacman -Qdt" to see what unneeded packages you can remove. "pacman -Qdtm" for unneeded outside the repo.

During upgrade the dependencies will resolved by the conflict (as only rest complain)

Edit:

Package indeed no longer exist or needed.
Make sure to clean your repo. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman … _(orphans)

Dear astralc

I succeed to upgrade system when removed an unneeded package of "rest".

Thank you so much for your assistance!
