Hmmmm I have bad dependency issues… Anybody has a clue for me maybe?

Pamac is much less verbose:

Also it doesn’t offer to skip the problematic packages but just aborts.

Possibly related: [SOLVED] Problem after update: cannot resolve "libicuuc.so=76-64" / Newbie Corner / Arch Linux Forums

This is why I don’t use GUI package managers! I always use sudo pacman -Syu (maybe adding a wanted package or two to the command) before doing anything else, e.g. managing AUR stuff.

Thank you. The issue there looks exactly the same, but I don’t have any testing repos active. So maybe an issue now went to stable?

Me too. Furthermore logged out from the session, on TTY.
On relogin I update AUR packages using YAY.

For the above commenters having dependency issues, your mirror may be out-of-sync. Unfortunately, the service to determine which mirrors are synced properly is down, so pacman-mirrors cannot fix this. You may need to wait until your mirror server fully syncs.
