somepackage requires otherpackage version >10.1.79
otherpackage is already at latest version
Have fun compiling it yourself and messing up what is managed by the package manager and what’s not. And don’t forget that the update might break some other package along the way
Don’t use apostrophes wherever you see an “s” at the end of a word. If you’re unsure about whether or not to use an apostrophe, just don’t. Because statistically, there are far fewer cases where you need 'em than there are cases where you don’t. Plus if you missed the apostrophe where it should be, people will just assume you didn’t bother to type it or it was a typo. Whereas if you do type it where it shouldn’t be, it’s a clear case of “this person doesn’t know how apostrophes work”.
Huh, pacman always seemed to automatically work out those dependency loops, or whatever you want to call them, when I was on EndeavourOS. The only time I had an issue with updating was when I went like two weeks without updating, and then ran out of harddrive space halfway through installing the 600 updates.
I’ve been running Bazzite for several months now, and updating is absurdly easy and unintrusive. It’s basically impossible to fuckup (and if you do, it’s extremely simple to rollback). I can really see immutable/atomic being the future of Linux.

If your distro maintainer’s do a good job, that situation never happen’s.
Or just use gentoo where that problem doensn’t exist at all.

There’s no need to get upset, the entire comment was typed on a keyboard; I didn’t say a word.

I merely tried to provide a response in the same tier as yours.

Well not if you’re on Ubuntu and need the latest version of e.g. npm for some nvim plugin, because that version is not in the repository.
I sometimes just give up and use Docker or a Flatpak (depending on if it’s a CLI or GUI app)
Manjaro, is that you?
NixOS solved this. You can install both deps from two different channels.
