mhwd does not remove linux-latest and linux-lts metapackages
mhwd does not remove the metapackages of linux-latest
(e.g. linux-latest-nvidia-430xx
). However, these metapackages depend on the kernel-modules mhwd is going to remove (e.g. linux53-nvidia-430xx
). Therefore, the transaction fails due to unsatisfied dependencies. This was observed in the German-section of the forum: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/nvidia-430xx-treiber-lasst-sich-nicht-entfernen/107895 and by another user in the main forum: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/auto-install-proprietary-driver-no-longer-works/109323/8
Removing the metapackage solved the dependency issue. I confirmed similar behavior with linux-lts
in VM
Proposal: mhwd removes the metapackages of linux-lts and linux-latest along with the kernel-modules if they are present
