ERROR: lib32-udev owned by systemd

I never intentionionally installed systemd...but something I installed did...so I tried to remove it (to show what was using it). The result is posted below. Please help me find the shortest path for fixing this. I saw a similar article with links to the wiki, but don't understand the solution.....so please don't post RTFM....if I understood what I was seeing, I wouldn't be asking for assistance.

Please help.

The /etc/pacman.conf has the entries in the proper order with Arch repos below Artix repos.

First check if package lib32-artix-archlinux-support is installed if not install it.

Code: [Select]
pacman -S lib32/lib32-artix-archlinux-support

I would be rough and remove the lib32-systemd package without caring for dependencies
Code: [Select]
pacman -Rd lib32-systemd
and than installed the lib32-artix-archlinux-support package
Code: [Select]
pacman -S lib32-artix-archlinux-support
and than did the update.

This might do it, at worst only lib32 is nuked.

should i maybe remove pipewire and vulkan-intel and try again 1st?    both seem to require systemd....that's weird for pipewire though.

I would rather skip the dependency check.

I am not sure how many things in your system depends on these libraries.

EDIT: try and see, maybe your approach is better than my. At worst pacman has logs in which you can see what was done to your packages.

These were the conflicting parts:

lib32-udev: /usr/lib32/libudev.so exists in filesystem (owned by lib32-systemd)
lib32-udev: /usr/lib32/libudev.so.1 exists in filesystem (owned by lib32-systemd)

...native steam seems to require the pipewire systemd package as well

sudo pacman -R lib32-pipewire
checking dependencies...

In short, you have poluted lib32 packages by Arch versions which are bad.

it is not only about conflicts, the "lib32-systemd" should not be installed at all.
Package "lib32-artix-archlinux-support" provides the "lib32-systemd" thus dependencies will be kept after you install it.

Following my previous post should get you past this.
The problem is that you should reinstall all packages which are now mentioned that they depend on "lib32-systemd".
If you do not do that you will experience weird errors. All apart from "lib32-libnm" can be founf in lib32 repository.

Clear the cache or manually state you want a version from lib32 repository after you exchange the "lib32-systemd" by "lib32-artix-archlinux-support".

Unless you do that you will receive errors by pacman when updating elogind and dbus
