Hi, I tried to update Manjaro using the terminal and this was the output:

pamac upgrade -a

Error: Failed to prepare transaction:

  • unable to satisfy dependency ‘openssl-1.1’ required by python2

Edit build files : [e]

What can I do? Do you need more info from my end?

Ok, as far as I know I only need it for Archive.org-Downloader.
While trying to remove it I still got broken dependencies issues:

sudo pacman -Rs python2

python2 has been out of service for almost 2 years.

You will need to remove all packages depending on python2

Ok I found this (Is it OK to remove python2 library? - #5 by JohnML) and it worked:

sudo pacman -Rcns python2

Thanks. Too bad I can’t use Archive.org-Downloader though.

Looking for archive.org downloader, I found this reddit thread
which leads here.
If this is what you meant, then you do not need python2 to use it.

It didn’t work for me. the prompt shows that openssl-1.1 is required by mssql-server

Prefer using:

sudo pacman -Rs python2
