Vagrant error after Arch update
After applying updates to my Arch laptop, I experienced some issue while trying to run Vagrant.
First error was:
Unable to activate vagrant_cloud-3.1.1, because rexml-3.3.2 conflicts with rexml (~> 3.2.5)
Looking in GH I found this reference: https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/issues/13502
So I applied the downgrade to the Ruby package:
downgrade ruby-rexml
loading packages...
warning: downgrading package ruby-rexml (3.3.2-1 => 3.2.6-2)

looking for conflicting packages...

After downgrading the package I tried to expunge and reinstall the packages.
vagrant plugin repair
vagrant plugin expunge --reinstall
vagrant plugin update
But another error appeared.
Vagrant failed to properly resolve required dependencies. These
errors can commonly be caused by misconfigured plugin installations
or transient network issues. The reported error is:
conflicting dependencies bigdecimal (= 3.1.3) and bigdecimal (= 3.1.8)
Activated bigdecimal-3.1.8
which does not match conflicting dependency (= 3.1.3)
Conflicting dependency chains:
bigdecimal (= 3.1.8), 3.1.8 activated
versus:
bigdecimal (= 3.1.3)
Gems matching bigdecimal (= 3.1.3):
bigdecimal-3.1.3
Retrying the process with the variable VAGRANT_DISABLE_STRICT_DEPENDENCY_ENFORCEMENT=1
before applying the update, seems that works.
VAGRANT_DISABLE_STRICT_DEPENDENCY_ENFORCEMENT=1 vagrant plugin install vagrant-libvirt
And now Vagrant is fully functional again.
