Pacman 3.4 in Core
News announcement from Arch, http://www.archlinux.org/news/503/
Pacman 3.4 has moved from testing to core. Please report back of any experience, and if not sure, hold off pacman -Syu for a few days, to see what the effect on kdemod is.
For the best result to a problem posted, please remember (funkyou's words):
1 - Tell us your architecture (i686 or x86_64), either in the thread title or in the posting itself
2 - Provide as much info as you can gather (backtraces, console output, chakra-version etc etc)
3 - Mark your post as solved with [SOLVED] in the title if your problem has been resolved (just edit your post)

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
Xorg 1.8 and all the related video drivers are in [extra] now, cautious updates would be advised for those as well.

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
xorg release was already mentioned here http://chakra-project.org/bbs/post.php? … ;qid=18955
The pacman update is not possible on KDEmod yet. kdemod-aqpm2, shaman2, are not ready for pacman 3.4
They will need to be rebuild, before pacman -Syu is possible again. Workaround for now is pacman -Syu --ignore pacman

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
I do not speak for the devs, but I find it doubtful that it will be fixed... They are working on a new packaging backend for shaman so it would seem a waste of time to port the old pacman backend. I'd just remove kdemod-aqpm2 & shaman2.

Makes sense. I'll do that. Thanks for the info 
I Just wasn't sure that kdemod-aqpm2 was required. I only update via terminal using pacman and yaourt anyhow.

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
So now we are unable to use yaourt or clyde due to libalpm missing? What method should we use for AUR helpers now (other than just running makepkg)?

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
You can update pacman without problems now, remove any aqpm2 tool if needed, they are not in our repos anymore.

Re: Pacman 3.4 in Core
Looks like the clyde devs updated clyde-git, so I just downloaded the PKGBUILD and installed via makepkg -i.
