running update results in the following error: error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: installing dart (3.9.4-1) breaks dependency 'dart<3.9.0' required by flutter-engine-common-google-bin

• it looks like dart version 3.9.4-1 is currently available which is newer than _dartmax specified in the PKGBUILD

the dart version of flutter-dart-google-bin 3.35.7-1 is wrong, should be 3.9.2.

I am getting the same error message, on J21's comment too.

installing dart (3.9.4-1) breaks dependency 'dart<3.9.0' required by flutter-engine-common-google-bin

Let's dispose of some misinformation. aur/flutter-bin does not provides the subpackages associated with this pkgbase (flutter-artifacts-google-bin). Rather, it conflicts with the subpackages of flutter and flutter-artifacts-google-bin. The errors are the conflicts doing what they're supposed to – prevent users from using the "wrong" packages.

The problem with aur/flutter and aur/flutter-artifacts-google-bin are the complicated cross-dependencies that AUR helpers have difficulty resolving. See the pinned comments describing the problem at aur/flutter. They predate the creation of aur/flutter-bin by about a month.

aur/flutter-bin does provides some of the subpackages of flutter. They are necessary to satisfy makedeps when building other packages. They do not break anything, and setting provides/conflicts is standard practice in -bin and -git packages.

To be clear, @markg85 : the aur/flutter-bin package is compltely unrelated to this package. It claims to provide dependencies required by this package but in fact does not. I reported this as behavior not allowed in the community but unless the report is accepted, I cannot change anything about this.

Consider checking what dependencies you are being dropped in by your AUR helper before installing random packages please.

This package gives:

looking for conflicting packages...
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected

Which then tries to some magic (never seen the rolling up to next layer, no clue what that is about) just to fail again with:

:: Do you want to skip the above packages for this upgrade? [y/N] 

Trying to continue will make it fail at a later point.
