I am upgrading to the latest version via GUI, but at the end of the process I received the following error:
conflicting files:
- konsole: /etc/xdg/konsolerc already exists in filesystem (owned by minisforum-kde-settings)
what can i do?
I’m guessing you overwrote that file when you installed minisforum-kde-settings … as manjaro-kde-settings provides that file as well and you would have encountered the same error at that time.
So … choose one (removing the other package) or overwrite the file (you can also delete it first … accomplishing the same thing).
EDIT
… or … its a known issue?
I’m getting the same error when trying to upgrade at the moment. I do not have the minisforum-kde-settings package installed.
Removing the file in question /etc/xdg/konsolerc (after a backup), allowed to do the update
This conflict is happening on all of my Manjaro machines as well

The repos should already have the fix in them.
Sort your mirrors and refresh/update.
If that somehow still doesnt work … you can remove the file first by hand
(its going to be replaced with the updated file anyways … but we can back it up by moving)
sudo mv /etc/xdg/konsolerc /etc/xdg/konsolerc.bak
Maybe you want to clear your cache as well. For example to remove everything;
paccache -rvk0
And of course go ahead with the update (will include a mirrors sort)
sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyu
