[SOLVED-ish] Unable to satisify dependency 'qemu-base=8.1.1-1' required by qemu-desktop

similar to https://forum.garudalinux.org/t/solved-ish-unable-to-satisfy-dependency-qemu-base-8-1-0-2-required-by-qemu-desktop/

the solution posted there works.

the problem seems to also occur on installations that are “stock”(ie no garuda-setup was run)

firstly, make sure you shut down any vm’s you may be running!!!

on the desktop, open the garuda-welcome application. inside open the garuda assistant application, under the “system components” tab uncheck(uninstall) virt-manager and press apply. after the uninstall is completed you can upgrade your system normally(garuda-update or update or upd). after upgrading go back to the virt-manager option and recheckmark it and press apply. after the reinstallation is complete reboot and your vm’s should be available.(this worked on my systems)

This time It was not enough to uninstall/install virt-manager with garuda-assistant.

I had to give the following commands:

sudo pacman -nRs qemu-emulators-full
sudo pacman -nRs qemu-tools qemu-hw-s390x-virtio-gpu-ccw qemu-pr-helper

When you uninstall virt-manager the old configuration and vitual machine were not deleted.

A reboot is needed.

sorry if there was ANY confusion, the point of my exercise was to ensure that no vm’s (or their/any configurations) were lost.

thanks for the help with this, I could now update my system :slight_smile:

Thanks, and welcome to the forums!!

Yep! I remembered this from last month.

I just install qemu-desktop and then I updated my system, it’s fixed for me.
