[SOLVED] Support needed for Nvidia drivers installation

(Spin off from this question.)

Upon trying to install the nvidia-580xx-dkms drivers from the AUR, I get this error:

:: nvidia-580xx-utils-580.159.03-1 and nvidia-utils-595.71.05-2 are in conflict (nvidia-libgl). Remove nvidia-utils? [y/N] y
:: nvidia-580xx-dkms-580.159.03-1 and nvidia-open-595.71.05-9 are in conflict (NVIDIA-MODULE). Remove nvidia-open? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing nvidia-utils breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=595.71.05' required by lib32-nvidia-utils
==> WARNING: Failed to install built package(s).

How should I proceed?

Re: [SOLVED] Support needed for Nvidia drivers installation

Remove the multilib package lib32-nvidia-utils, you can then install the 580xx drivers and optionally later on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib3 … 80xx-utils
