:: installing qemu-common (8.0.0-1) breaks dependency 'qemu-common=7.2.1-1' required by qemu-virtiofsd

Is there something I should do here??

Looks like package qemu-virtiofsd is no (more?) available.
Usually that means some other package now includes something that was in
qemu-virtiofsd. But I’m not sure which package that is.
However, if that’s the case, it should be safe to uninstall qemu-virtiofsd.

I don’t use qemu, so hopefully someone else can chime in to verify…

As far as I know there is no package in my system call qemu-virtiofsd. Pacman -Ss qemu-virtiofsd returns nothing, same for yay

4

Can you check from your pacman log when you installed qemu-virtiofsd?

Also, in your pacman cache package qemu-virtiofsd-*.zst may/should exist. So if you uninstall it, you still may have it…

sudo pacman -R qemu-virtiofsd

Package virtiofsd should replace it.

7

Okay got it fixed. I removed qemu-desktop, then I removed qemu-virtiofsd, then I installed qemu-desktop.

8

I guess that installed virtiofsd too?

9

yes it did

10

OK, the devs have made some internal changes but apparently the change is still a bit work in progress…
