Problem with Arch Linux ARM February Update

Postby bluechalk2 » Sun Mar 27, 2011 7:13 pm

I just tried applying the Arch Linux ARM February Update on my Dockstar, but got an error. I don't know how to proceed. Also, do I need to run `pacman-db-upgrade` like it says? If so, when?

This happened while running the first pacman -Syyfu in Step 2.
