cant update mkinitcpio to versio 38 due to conflicting files

distant pecan
#

I’m confused, if it’s installed why isn’t it saying it’s installed when you try to update it…what happens with an -Syu?

faint matrix
#

Syu does the same

distant pecan
#

Have you googled it yet?

faint matrix
#

i didn't find anything

faint matrix
#

ok i fixed it in a really stupid way um i just removed the files lol

#

and was able to update mkinitcpio and build

#

complete system upgrade and reboot

distant pecan
#

That was going to be my suggestion but I was going to try and find the reason for this happening in the first place first XD

faint matrix
#

it was because of the recent mkinitcpio changes

#

also im using lvm2 on encrypted luks root which complicates things

distant pecan
#

Would expect it to effect more people, but oh well, I’ll see if it effects my system soon

distant pecan
faint matrix
#

yea but lvm2 conflicted with mkinitcpio

distant pecan
#

Ahhhhh okay

faint matrix
#

and wouldnt install both unless they were both updated
