Error tonight in the update (libblockdev - libblockdev-utils)

Good evening
Tonight I launched the update (sudo pacman -Syu) and he gave me back this error:

:: libbuckdev and libbu-Utils go into conflict

And it stops everything without being proceeding with the update.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem ???

Same issue here. Anyone found a resolution?

Replace libblockdev-utils with extra/libblockdev? [Y/n] y

Say y(es) to replace!

I tried both by responding Y (yes) and responding N (not) … always gives me back the same error


!

Try:

sudo pacman -Rdd libblockdev-utils && sudo pacman -Syu libblockdev

I solved the problem by updating the mirror
(I removed 2 nations close to me and I only gave them up in my nation)

I am in Italy: I always updated the Mirror with “Italy” “France” and “Switzerland”
I left Italy alone by removing the others and now he does not even ask me to replace the two DependeNces anymore. Probably something does not work in France or Switzerland!

I didn’t trust my instincts so searched forum first. I hit Y–after reading you-- and rest of update threw no errors.
Did your -Rdd command just for the redundant certainty but of course pacman didn’t see package since I nuked it with my Y.

thanks for being there of the OP. Helped me as well.

Doing this you had already resolved the conflict.

The pacman -Rdd command was meant to be run if the conflict would still remain unresolved.

this is the current (probably the actual right) working solution , thanks
