[fringe saddle]

if you add ffmpeg4 to the list does it get better?

[small gorge]

no

[restive widget]

sudo pacman -Syu

then try again

[restive widget]

pacman -Qdtq | sudo pacman -Rns -

[small gorge]

Wouldn’t this remove all my packages

[fringe saddle]

Its piped from the output of the prev command, it only removes the orphans

[restive widget]

this would remove the orphans which i suspect you have and is blocking the update

[small gorge]

Works now

[restive widget]
