Hello!

I'm new to KaOS and enjoying it so far but I'm hitting a snag with installing Sublime Text from the official repos. Sublime Merge works just fine, but I get the following error when installing Sublime Text:

sudo pacman -Syu sublime-text
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 main is up to date
 apps is up to date
 sublime-text is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "libcurl.so", a dependency of "sublime-text"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      sublime-text

:: Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade? [y/N] n
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: unable to satisfy dependency 'libcurl.so' required by sublime-text

I have curl installed. I know that the KCP provides a Sublime Text package, but I'd like to track this down if possible since then I'd be getting automatic updates for Sublime. Anyone have any ideas?

I also have an issue registered with the Sublime team:
https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/5253

Not a KaOS or update issue, outside repos can't be the responsibility of KaOS.
Curl provides libcurl.so, see all libcurl.s in the repo:

:pf libcurl.so
core/curl 7.80.0-1              /usr/lib/libcurl.so
core/curl 7.80.0-1              /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4
core/curl 7.80.0-1              /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.7.0
apps/lightworks 2021.2.1-1      /usr/lib/lightworks/libcurl.so
apps/lightworks 2021.2.1-1      /usr/lib/lightworks/libcurl.so.4
apps/lightworks 2021.2.1-1      /usr/lib/lightworks/libcurl.so.4.7.0
apps/scilab 6.1.1-1             /usr/lib/scilab/thirdparty/libcurl.so

It probably looks for a libcurl.so in a different path. Using outside repos will cause all kinds of issues, since KaOS is rolling & independant, so you will very often see wrong versions for all kinds of libraries. Please don't do it, no further support will be provided for this in the forum.

    demm understood, was more just curious for myself. The Sublime Text team said that the curl package for KaOS was providing the libcurl.so file but not the dependency, I'm not too familiar with Pacman, so I'm not sure what that means.

      Better don't use KCP, add flathub to Discover and install Sublime. Using 3-th party repo is not supported in KaOS since it's not sub Arch distro.
