Replacement of dependency will break Emby beta

[Locutus64 125]

I'm running Manjaro testing and there are updates for it to day and when I go to install them I get the below. I would like to know since I won't lose my settings or libraries if I can just uninstall the Emby beta, do the updates and then reinstall Emby?

I replied the following to your question at the AUR comment session.

Locutus64: No you'll not lose your libraries if you do the following (copy-paste from my earlier reply to someone else):

Emby is built locally on your system, using the locally installed libx264 version. So to compile emby with libx264.so=160, ideally you should first update the x264 package (which is a hassle because of the dependency complaints).

 

What you should do is first temporarily remove the emby-server-beta package (pacman -R emby-server-beta), then update x264 (pacman -Syu), and finally install emby-server-beta again.

OK cool I just replied that did the trick, so thanks again.

How are you installing the beta package?

either yay -S emby-server-beta or using the Pamac GUI and searching it and installing it. Which either is correct. Like I said unintaling Emby, installing the updates, and then reinstalling emby worked perfectly.
