As of this morning I am getting the below when running yay / pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
:: There are 5 providers available for opencl-driver:
:: Repository extra
1) opencl-mesa 2) opencl-nvidia 3) opencl-nvidia-390xx
:: Repository community
4) beignet 5) intel-compute-runtime
I think this is the first time I see this message and it makes me a little nervous to hit enter for two reasons:
How’s this “full system upgrade” different from any other update?
This is about graphics drivers, and I am running bumblebee, which was a pain get working. So I really, really don’t want to get this update wrong.
I think I need option 2) opencl-nvidia but thought I’d better ask here before I go ahead.
would first look into your like pacman -Qs opencl and pacman -Qi Mayby its a part of a package to update i dont know.if you already has opencl it doesnt ask like that
if it become a depency of a package or you install it then it can ask things like that…
optional does not get installed automatical you have to see in pacman list like
sudo pacman -Syy && pacman -Qu
or
checkupdates
probably there is a command you can peak i dont know but if depency change one of those programs to opencl as example, then it ask which opencl it must take actually…
