package gnome-shell needs to be updated

Postby ericwoud » Sat Nov 19, 2022 11:21 am

I'm trying a new install of gnome on archlinuxarm. I have the base installed, then I try to install gnome, but it fails with pacman error:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: unable to satisfy dependency 'libmutter-10.so=0-32' required by gnome-shell

How to get past this?

I've updated the title to describe what is wrong here:

package mutter provides libmutter version 11, but gnome-shell depends on version 10

See below:

```
[root@rk3288 /]# pacman -Si mutter

This problem may be specific to the armv7h architecture. My aarch64 from archlinuxARM reports updated gnome-shell (43, not 42):
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
Repository : extra
Name : gnome-shell
Version : 1:43.1-2
Description : Next generation desktop shell
Architecture : aarch64
')

This still hasn't been solved yet?
Is Armv7 still being maintained?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' pacman -S gnome-shell
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "libmutter-10.so=0-32", a dependency of "gnome-shell"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:

It's as maintained as the rest of ALARM.

As I stated in your other thread: you are incorrect that this distro is not maintained and you are free to switch to another distro of your choosing. Please stop making posts like this. They are unproductive.

Sorry, I meant no disrespect.
I'm new to Arch
I can see armv7 support is in very good state.
Somebody just needs to rebuild and push the gnome-shell package.

I just pushed a PR which updates the generic armv7 kernel to stable 6.1.2 and added the patches for ODroid XU3/4.

My comment was not directed at you, but at counterpillow. My personal opinion is to run aarch64 unless you have a compelling reason to use armv7h.

Sadly this is still not fixed.

All it needs is being rebuild (for armv7h), from the same PKGBUILD.

Only then will gnome install.
