Conflict Between New ffmpeg-2:7.0.1-1 & ffmpeg-mpp-git

[JFLim1]

Not sure which package in 7Ji/archrepo is triggering the requirement to upgrade/install ffmpeg-2:7.0.1-1.

Install pacman-contrib and run pactree -r ffmpeg

And what's repo rockchip?

"rockchip" is @samuel or kwankiu repo -- https://github.com/kwankiu/PKGBUILDs/releases/aarch64. Testing Panthor.

At least "chromaprint" and "mpv" need newer libav{codec,device,filter,format,util}.so which is only provided by newer ffmpeg:

> pacman -Si mpv | grep libav
Depends On      : alsa-lib  libasound.so=2-64  desktop-file-utils  ffmpeg  libavcodec.so=61-64  libavdevice.so=61-64  libavfilter.so=10-64  libavformat.so=61-64  libavutil.so=59-64  libswresample.so=5-64  libswscale.so=8-64  glibc  hicolor-icon-theme  jack  libjack.so=0-64  lcms2  liblcms2.so=2-64  libarchive  libarchive.so=13-64  libass  libass.so=9-64  libbluray  libbluray.so=2-64  libcdio  libcdio-paranoia  libdrm  libdvdnav  libdvdread  libegl  libgl  libglvnd  libjpeg  libjpeg.so=8-64  libplacebo  libplacebo.so=338-64  libpulse  libpulse.so=0-64  libsixel  libva  libva.so=2-64  libva-drm.so=2-64  libva-wayland.so=2-64  libva-x11.so=2-64  libvdpau  libx11  libxext  libxkbcommon  libxkbcommon.so=0-64  libxpresent  libxrandr  libxss  libxv  luajit  mesa  mujs  libpipewire  rubberband  librubberband.so=2-64  openal  uchardet  vapoursynth  vulkan-icd-loader  wayland  zlib

> pacman -Si chromaprint | grep libav
Depends On      : gcc-libs  glibc  libavcodec.so=61-64  libavformat.so=61-64  libavutil.so=59-64  libswresample.so=5-64

Which is not provided by ffmpeg-mpp-git:

> pacman -Qi ffmpeg-mpp-git | grep libav
Provides        : libavcodec.so=60-64  libavdevice.so=60-64  libavfilter.so=9-64  libavformat.so=60-64  libavutil.so=58-64  libpostproc.so=57-64  libswresample.so=4-64  libswscale.so=7-64  ffmpeg=6.1.r112638.9efe5bcff0-1  ffmpeg-obs=6.1.r112638.9efe5bcff0-1  ffmpeg-rockchip  ffmpeg-rockchip-git

So pacman decides to replace ffmpeg-mpp-git with ffmpeg, as its the only provider for the newer .so s.

This would be the case until ffmpeg-mpp-git is updated. Unfortuantely it wouldn't be updated before the upstream updates: https://github.com/nyanmisaka/ffmpeg-rockchip

Tried to trick the system by "ignoring mpv chromaprint" upgrade but there are other dependency issue.

sudo pacman -Syu
[sudo] password for jfl:

:: installing protobuf (27.2-1) breaks dependency 'protobuf=25.3' required by python-protobuf

Will hold off system upgrade for now.

You'll need to find more that depends on it by yourself.

Noted. Managed to performed partial update/upgrade by ignoring "mpv chromaprint protobuf libphonenumber" but after that "mpv-0.38.0-4" will not launch due to:

mpv: error while loading shared libraries: libx265.so.199: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Resolved by locating "libx265.so and libx265.so.199" copying over to /lib/. This due to x265 being upgraded to "x265 3.6-1".
