pacman -Rn uutils
pacman -S coreutils
pacman -S uutils (if you still want uutils)

#

that might work

#

Taking into consideration that by removing uutils and I don’t have coreutils, I’m screwed

#

If I remove uutils, I don’t have anymore utils to use

@burnt coyote then you can just use pacman --root

#

but you wont need it

#

since youll be installing coreutils immediately after

Yeah, but pacman also deletes the alpm library for some reason

#

just use pacman --root then?
also are you sure you did rn and not rns?

#

screw it

#

rm $(pacman -Ql uutils | grep bin) then pacman -S coreutils

#

@burnt coyote pretty sure thatll work

#

deletes every file from uutils with bin in the path and reinstalls coreutils
