Can't update (breaks dependency)

Error: Failed to prepare the transaction (unable to satisfy dependencies)
:: Installing boost-libs (1.86.0-1) breaks dependency 'libboost_filesystem.so=1.83.0-64' required by syncthingtray
 -> Error installing repo packages
Error installing repo packages

(this is translated from my language to English)

I looked at this but it still doesn’t work. Do I just wait or it can be fixed?

Uninstall it then reinstall it.

sudo pacman -R syncthingtray && sudo pacman -Syu

Once it’s finished:

yay -S syncthingtray

There seems to be a typo in the second command given above.

syncthingtray is from AUR, so for reinstalling it OP would need to use an AUR-helper like yay for example.

I had to install the QT6 version of SyncthingTray as the version for QT5 won’t compile with an up to date Plasma 6 EndeavourOS system.

yay -S syncthingtray-qt6
