installing icu (71.1-1) breaks dependency 'libicui18n.so=70-64' required by thun

Hi,
new icu drama.
installing icu (71.1-1) breaks dependency 'libicui18n.so=70-64' required by thunderbird-artix
Wait to be resolved ?


P.S. More than 300 forum threads for the search term "icu"!

Yes, I have had the same issue this morning and ended up ignoring two packages in /etc/pacman.conf icu and harfbuzz. I was then able to successfully upgrade.

EDIT: However after a reboot xorg no longer starts....

Thunderbird artix was moved into the galaxy repos a long time ago. You shouldn't use it anymore. Just install thunderbird.

The package thunderbird-artix is not in Artix repositories anymore. Anyone who still uses it should uninstall it and install package world/thunderbird instead.

My apologies, thunderbird is in world not galaxy.

That is the message I am getting on my work laptop after first removing thunderbird-artix and then attempting to install thunderbird from galaxy.
How can I resolve this please?

Ensure your /etc/pacman.conf is properly configured and there are no

IgnorePkg = ...
lines in it, and then fully update your system by issuing
Code: [Select]
pacman -Syyuu
The current package world/harfbuzz-icu doesn't depend on libicuuc.so 70-64, but 71-64.
