BeagleboneA6: Updateing with pacman crippled pacman

Postby mcc » Sat Aug 18, 2012 11:24 am

Hi,

Just started with ARCHLinux on my Beaglebone and have some trouble...

After preparing a SD card I was able to boot the Beaglebone and login as rpoot via ssh successfully.

As advised as one of the first steps I wanted to update the system (http://archlinuxarm.org/support/guides/ ... irst-steps).

I did a

pacman -Sy openntpd

to install openntpd.

I was asked whether I want to update pacman, for which an newer version was available and I said Yes.
After that procedure, pacman was no longer working due tomissing libaries. Did I bricked my installation?

Thank you very much in advance for any help!

(Below the log)

Have a nice weekend!
Best regards,
mcc

Hi,

thank you for your help!

But why should I say no? Is the package itself damaged? Unresolved dependencies?

Best regards,
mcc

There was an alteration to the naming convention of ld* of the glibc chain thanks to Linaro. That change breaks linking.
