Re: package-query

what version is pacman?  package-query requires it be at version 4

$ pacman -Q pacman

Re: package-query

I've got the same error, it's been way too long since I've updated this system.  I'm trying to update pacman manually to v4, but getting this same error mentioned above.  I downloaded this package:

pacman-4.0.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Extracted it, then did this:

# pacman -Sf pacman
pacman: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libalpm.so.7)
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: package-query: requires pacman<3.6

My current version of pacman is 3.5.4-4.

Based on the error message, it would appear to require pacman less than 3.6, which I have.  However, I suspect the error message was intended to show the greater than sign?  Assuming that's the case, how do I upgrade pacman when I need a new pacman to upgrade pacman?

Re: package-query

try removing package-query, upgrading pacman and then re-installing package-query
