Oh! The -d flag really makes this easy, thanks! :) Works with yay too!

You can also just do paru -Sd nvidia-beta-dkms nvidia-utils-beta lib32-nvidia-utils-beta nvidia-settings-beta

I suppose you could just make all packages first and then pacman -U all packages in one go. It can take multiple arguments.

@alexmurkoff Yes, that's what I had to do as well. I removed all nvidia related packages and started from scratch. I even had to temporarily uninstall steam as it depends on it through lib32-vulkan-driver, but I just reinstalled it afterwards and everything was fine.

I... Have an issue I'm not sure how to solve.

So, here's me making the nvidia-beta-dkms package, but it is unable to resolve nvidia-utils-beta, which is understandable, i don't have it.

$ makepkg -si
==> WARNING: A package has already been built, installing existing package...
==> Installing package nvidia-beta-dkms with pacman -U...

warning: cannot resolve "nvidia-utils-beta=555.42.02", a dependency of "nvidia-beta-dkms"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      nvidia-beta-dkms

So, then i clone the nvidia-utils-beta and try to make it:

$ makepkg -si
==> WARNING: The package group has already been built, installing existing packages...
==> Installing nvidia-utils-beta package group with pacman -U...

:: removing nvidia-utils breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=550.78' required by nvidia-dkms
==> WARNING: Failed to install built package(s).

But it's kind of in a circular dependency... So, do I just remove all nvidia-related packages on my system and just makepkg -si the beta ones, or...?

@RusWolf When the released beta version is the same as the released stable version (as they are currently), they must match versions, as there is not a way to be ahead of something not released.

@urbenlegend AUR helpers are not supported. Use makepkg.

RusWolf commented on 2024-02-24 09:44 (UTC)

Why is the package called nvidia-beta-dkms when 550.54.14 driver is the production branch of the drivers?

urbenlegend commented on 2024-02-23 22:00 (UTC)

@dbermond I see a similar issue as @jackhodgkinson when I did an upgrade to 550.54.14 today. Maybe it's an issue with paru? If I do paru -Syud, the upgrade goes through fine.
