I think it's just a bad line in commit 8a2f6b8a7d. If I revert line 18 in the PKGBUILD to
Code: [Select]
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr \
it seems to install fine.

I'm expecting the same issue here, what did you do exactly to solve it? I'm using stable repositories. I guess maintainers should solve this issue.

The same issue happens.

Re: imath error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

@jrballesteros05 for now you can try
 pacman -Su --ignore imath

Other than that you can wait for the issue to get sorted out or build the package yourself using @phat_sumo 's suggestion above.

( Side note: I built the package and it took a LOT longer than I expected . )

For what it's worth, when I try to compile in a clean chroot using aleksey's PKGBUILD, it fails for me with CMake Error: Error processing file: /build/imath/src/build/cmake_install.cmake.  However, uninstalling imath entirely before trying to upgrade also fails to install with only the first conflict: /usr/lib64 exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem).  I solved the problem by merely adding -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=/usr/lib \ to the official PKGBUILD.  That then compiles, installs all of the libraries into /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64, and installs just fine.  I wouldn't have the slightest idea why that's an issue, although my understanding is that /usr/lib64 is supposed to be forbidden now or something, and aleksey's conclusion that this is a cmake bug seems reasonable under the circumstances.  Hope that helps.

In my case imath was a dep of gimp, as I rarely need that I just removed gimp for now with -Rs gimp and could then upgrade.
If I then try to install imath alone I get:
Code: [Select]
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
imath: /usr/lib64 exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)
But I can't delete /usr/lib64 as it is full of essential things.

I think it's trying to install in /usr/lib64/ explicitly which causes conflicts since /usr/lib64@ is a symbolic link to /usr/lib/ and is owned by filesystem.
Code: [Select]
ls -aF /usr/
./  ../  bin/  etc/  include/  lib/  lib32/  lib64@  local/  sbin@  share/  sr/  src/

yeah I'm stuck here too, how do we upgrade this package?

personally I just did a sudo pacman -Rsc imath then did a -Syu without issues, restarted and all seems good for what i use anyway!   I'll re-add it once its been updated, but I'm guessing something else broke it as the package was last touched in Arch extra back in June '22 (installing it after removing it gives the same error at the mo.)

This is not really an option.

sudo pacman -Rsc imath
