This is related to the debug package, because Zrythm bundles some Carla binaries, your system is generating a zrythm-debug package that contains the same debug IDs as carla-git-debug. Since pacman won't allow two packages to own the same debug files, the installation fails.

Run yay -S zrythm --editmenu, and when the PKGBUILD opens, add options=(!debug) to the top of the file. This will stop the creation of the conflicting debug package.

Another option would be that you either reinstall both packages with yay, or cleanup your cache and then rebuild.

Nope, still errors. It gets farther this time, but still errors:

Hey @unseenvisuals and @thesupertechie, thanks for the detailed reports! I've dug into this and just pushed 1.0.0-6 which resolves the underlying problems.

To explain what was happening:

1. The "keep build dependencies" mystery: You were absolutely right that the DAW was failing without them. Zrythm requires Boost to dynamically link its bundled LV2 plugins at runtime. When yay automatically cleaned up the makedepends, it uninstalled Boost, causing the plugins to fail. I have properly split the dependencies and moved boost-libs into the depends array, so it should now run perfectly on a clean install.

2. The zrythm-debug file conflict: Zrythm's build system intentionally copies Carla's bridge binaries into its own library folder. Because you have the debug flag enabled in your makepkg.conf, your system generates a zrythm-debug package. It extracts debug symbols from those copied Carla binaries, which perfectly match the debug hashes already owned by carla-git-debug. This causes pacman to throw a file conflict. You can bypass this by simply not installing the generated -debug package, or by temporarily disabling the !debug option for this build.

Please pull the latest 1.0.0-6 release and let me know if everything is running smoothly for you now!

Exact same issue as @unseenvisuals.

@nikost74 No I don't need nor installed carla-git-debug, it was automatically installed by yay -S zrythm. I did clean installation, but this time I chose to keep the build dependencies after install (which I usually dont), now it worked. Very strange ...

nikost74 commented on 2025-07-13 10:09 (UTC)

Do you need the carla-git-debug for debugging? You could try to remove the carla-git-debug package and then try to update the zrythm package, if you need the debug simply reinstall the carla-git (including the debug) package.

sudo pacman -R carla-git-debug
yay -S zrythm

When trying to install the package via yay -S zrythm I get:

Thanks xiota I will fix both of them. Please let me know if anything else needs to be fixed so we do not have to push too many releases.
