Huh

#

Somehow the files that are supposed to be installed, already exists

#

Try forcing the installation

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/urllib3/__init__.py
see which package owns the file

#

ok that's the issue i guess

#

files are not managed by pacman, so it is perhaps hesitating to overwrite them

yes

python-urllib3 : this package in arch repos has those files, which is probably pulled as a dependency by lutris

#

When installing packages using pip, it is recommended to use a virtual environment to prevent conflicts with system packages in /usr. Alternatively, pip install --user can be used to install packages into the user scheme instead of /usr

#

It is recommended not to let pip install to the root filesystem, so conflicts like this don't happen.
