du problem: policykit-1 libpam-systemd systemd
« on: 2018/10/07, 14:53:41 »
Recently du began failing with an error telling me that it couldn't install policykit-1 because the package depended on libpam-systemd which wasn't going to be installed. libpam-systemd in turn needs systemd. If I try to manually upgrade systemd it wants to remove 94 packages.
I haven't seen any discussion about this and I'm wondering what the problem is.

The problem is the lack of patience.
