#40739: ncurses-6.2-1-mingw32-bin.tar.xz: upgrade failed Open Date: 2020-09-16 09:14 Last Update: 2020-09-16 20:50 URL for this Ticket: https://osdn.net//projects/mingw/ticket/40739 RSS feed for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/ticket/ticket_rss.php?group_id=3917&tid=40739 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Last Changes/Comment on this Ticket: 2020-09-16 20:50 Updated by: keith Comment: Reply To jannick Manually removing the conflicted executables and then reinstalling the package (using the package manager gui) did the trick. Pleased to learn that you got it working, but I'm puzzled: how did you "reinstall" using the GUI, given that the "Mark for reinstallation" option is disabled? I guess that you must have first performed a "remove", followed by a fresh "install". I can't remember who it was, who said that "a GUI is a contrivance for making the simple difficult, and the difficult well-nigh impossible"; sometimes, the CLI really is more capable. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ticket Status: Reporter: jannick Owner: keith Type: Issues Status: Open [Owner assigned] Priority: 5 - Medium MileStone: (None) Component: INSTALLER Severity: 5 - Medium Resolution: None --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ticket details: Here the log copied straight from the 'Details' window of the installation manager showing information of the only package to be upgraded. It appears that an additional path seperator in the paths breaks things. Thanks. 1. upgrade: ncurses-6.2-1-mingw32-bin.tar.xz 2. removing release ncurses-6.0-2-mingw32-bin.tar.lzma 3. installing ncurses-6.2-1-mingw32-bin.tar.xz 4. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/captoinfo.exe: extraction failed 5. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/captoinfo.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 6. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/clear.exe: extraction failed 7. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/clear.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 8. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/infocmp.exe: extraction failed 9. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/infocmp.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 10. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/infotocap.exe: extraction failed 11. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/infotocap.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 12. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/reset.exe: extraction failed 13. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/reset.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 14. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tabs.exe: extraction failed 15. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tabs.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 16. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tic.exe: extraction failed 17. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tic.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 18. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/toe.exe: extraction failed 19. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/toe.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 20. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tput.exe: extraction failed 21. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tput.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten 22. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tset.exe: extraction failed 23. mingw-get-gui: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\/bin/tset.exe: probable package conflict; existing file not overwritten -- Ticket information of MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows project MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows Project is hosted on OSDN Project URL: https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/ OSDN: https://osdn.net URL for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/ticket/40739 RSS feed for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/ticket/ticket_rss.php?group_id=3917&tid=40739
