Installing from repo on Arch throws hooks error

ad-on-is opened this issue · 3 comments

I wanted to give this one a shot and followed the instructions, but I get an error with nvidia.hook

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
phyOS-sysconf: /etc/pacman.d/hooks/nvidia.hook exists in filesystem

I moved nvidia.hook to nvidia.hook.bkp and the installation proceeded, but it created a bunch of files in /etc/pacman.d/hooks. Is this necessary?

Removed the hook, can you try again?

Now it does not create the hooks anymore.

Does it install correctly? Just removed the nvidia hook.
