missing package pcmciautils

Postby replabrobin » Sun Nov 11, 2012 7:28 pm

After a recent pacman -Syu I found that I appear to have files owned by a non-existent package

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
# pacman -Qo /lib/udev/pcmcia-* /lib/udev/rules.d/60-pcmcia.rules
/lib/udev/pcmcia-check-broken-cis is owned by pcmciautils 017-1
/lib/udev/pcmcia-socket-startup is owned by pcmciautils 017-1
/lib/udev/rules.d/60-pcmcia.rules is owned by pcmciautils 017-1
')

I see this package in archlinux, but pacman -S pcmciautils says

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '#')pacman -S pcmciautils
error: target not found: pcmciautils
#


this update required removal of /lib and use of busybox to get over the pacman -S --force glibc etc etc so perhaps things didn't complete completely normally.

Any ideas?

1) the package has been outmoded (aka removed) upstream
2) unless you have a pcmcia slot, you never needed it anyways. It was previously a part of base.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '1')) the package has been outmoded (aka removed) upstream

thanks I've removed the old package.
