Mesa reinstall

General system Kernel, boot, graphics & hardware
1

After another kernel lockup whilst updating this morning I have a number of problems that I have solved in rebuilding the graphics stack. But I cannot figure out this one; reinstalling Mesa.


[onyx@onyx ~]$ sudo pacman -Sdd mesa

there were many files that were reported as too short in the logs, so I am beginning to suspect nvme issues with truncation when updates are happening.

eg from my Xorg.0.log

What is the conflict you are forcefully ignoring? Maybe a better way forward would be to address the conflict.

If you want to push forward with the brute force method, you will need to overwrite all those files. See this post: [FAQ] Package installation says FILENAME exists in filesystem; “Failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)”

The conflict is only with itself; it thinks it’s installed but is really broken with shortened files.
The overwrite was the voodoo I was forgetting, thanks!
