davidbrooke: No, justin8 is right, package-query complaints have nothing to do in here. The only reason it gave you troubles is because you are using an unsupported helper instead of using AUR the only supported way, which is makepkg and does not need package-query.

Package-query was updated so that pacman 4.2 and yaourt all work. Installed plex-media-server and it seems to be working correctly. Thanks for the work! @justin8 My post here for package-query and pacman 4.2 are very relevent to the testing and stable versions of plex-media-server. Please read all the posts before making mis-informed remarks.

Perhaps try asking that on the package-query page? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/package-query/ It was moved to the AUR earlier this week I believe, but it says there it supports pacman 4.2 anyway, so just rebuild it from there. Either way; it's totally unrelated to plex.

Pacman 4.2 is out but there is still an issue: :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date multilib is up to date archlinuxfr is up to date :: Starting full system upgrade... resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: package-query: requires pacman<4.2 If I uninstall package-query then pacman 4.2 will install but I can't reinstall package-query and yaourt to install plex-media-server. Is there an updated version of package-query or is there another way to install pacman 4.2?

I'm getting the same error as mutchuloko. It seems that libboost was updated to 1.57, but Plex is still running on 1.56

Sigh... I wonder when being able to browse and read through previous comments stopped being a requirement for AUR. Reverted to the old ugly bash magic until pacman 4.2 hits [core].
