Today, I tried to update my Arch Linux system, and ran into an error that said **“error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) stfl: /usr/lib/libstfl.so.0 exists in filesystem”**. It looks like one library (/usr/lib/libstfl.so.0) that exists on my filesystem and pacman can’t upgrade it. If you’re encountered with the same error, here is a quick fix to resolve it. + +### Solve “error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)” In Arch Linux + +You have three options. + +1. Simply ignore the problematic **stfl** library from being upgraded and try to update the system again. Refer this guide to know [**how to ignore package from being upgraded**][1]. + +2. Overwrite the package using command: +``` +$ sudo pacman -Syu --overwrite /usr/lib/libstfl.so.0 +``` + +3. Remove stfl library file manually and try to upgrade the system again. Please make sure the intended package is not a dependency to any important package. and check the archlinux.org whether are mentions of this conflict. +``` +$ sudo rm /usr/lib/libstfl.so.0 +``` + +Now, try to update the system: +``` +$ sudo pacman -Syu +``` + +I chose the third option and just deleted the file and upgraded my Arch Linux system. It works now! + +Hope this helps. More good stuffs to come. Stay tuned! + +Cheers! + + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-solve-error-failed-to-commit-transaction-conflicting-files-in-arch-linux/ + +作者：[SK][a] +选题：[lujun9972](https://github.com/lujun9972) +译者：[lujun9972](https://github.com/lujun9972) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://www.ostechnix.com/author/sk/ +[1]:https://www.ostechnix.com/safely-ignore-package-upgraded-arch-linux/
