This is a STEAM DECK since it wasnt clear enough last time.
The STEAM DECK (if my knowledge is correct) distributes OS updates in such a way that packages installed with pacman instead of discover will not work correctly after an update, if they still exist at all.
What i want to know is how can i have my packages, and update too?

@steel pewter what package(s)?
steel pewter
specific ones arent the issue as its an issue with anything installed via pacman, but some particular ones are prismlauncher, specific versions of java (as a dependency), gale mod manager, vintagestory, etc. some are available as flatpak, but many arent and some of the flatpak ones are critically broken
