error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing x265 (2.9-1.0) breaks dependency 'libx265.so=160-32' required by ffmpeg

Re: Can't update system due x265 and ffmpeg (SOLVED)

Hello, now the problem is solve.

sudo pacman -Syu

ca-certificates-20181109-1.0  ca-certificates-mozilla-3.40-2.0
            ca-certificates-utils-20181109-1.0  ffmpeg-1:4.1-1.6
            hunspell-1.7.0-1.0  iso-codes-4.1-1.0  media-player-info-24-1.0
            nss-3.40-2.0  v4l-utils-1.16.1-1.0  x265-2.9-1.0

I have not changed anything, why does it work all at once?

Re: Can't update system due x265 and ffmpeg (SOLVED)

yeah, sorry. There was a cycle between ffmpeg, x265 and older version of the same libraries. So they refused to build
against the right versions or be pushed into stable.

Andreas, thanks for fixing this. What exactly was the cycle? Maybe we should report it to upstream? (only if it will prevent us from building it "in the normal way" next time)

cheers,

Re: Can't update system due x265 and ffmpeg (SOLVED)

There was an ffmpeg can not be installed because x265 is needed in version 160. So I'm afraid, ffmpeg can only
be updated by keeping the new and the old version of x265 around.

Re: Can't update system due x265 and ffmpeg (SOLVED)

ah, ok. It probably just means, that we need to compile ffmpeg first and x264 later, right?
