After resolving the openjdk issue, I get this error:
looking for conflicting packages…
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing kpeople5 (5.111.0-1) breaks dependency ‘kpeople’ required by kpeoplevcard
:: installing kcontacts5 (5.111.0-1) breaks dependency ‘kcontacts’ required by kpeoplevcard
Any tips?
EDIT: Solved with pacman -Syuu as noted in Unable to upgrade using pacman -Syyu (kpeoplevcard) - #2 by Teo
It is not in aur yet. this commit in gnome-shell-extensions -W2kYermok06MN4 has the fix. Errors are still logged but there is no crash.
What is the reason to keep DDCutil 1.4.1?
sysctl is missing something? why is it trying to enable unprivileged users??
( 3/26) Applying kernel sysctl settings...
Couldn't write '1' to 'kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone', ignoring: No such file or directory
whats is this thing now? ( i mean the new excessive warning text I see first time ever)
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System

#2) Think before you type.

[sudo] password for deemon:
Ran out of Disk space on the root partition… pacman cache took up over 50% of partition.
Cleared that.
sudo pacman -Scc
JRE JDK conflicts, set the JDK JRE updates to ignore, after the update I removed tham, system complained 1 or other JDk JRE was Optionally required by LibreOffice… ignored that
CUDA threw a corrupted file error, so I set CUDA to ignore, adn finally completed the upgrade. Removed CUDA, as I don’t have any nVidia cards, I’m not even sure why it was installed in the first place.
Other than the above the upgrade went just fine.
I just updated another computer of mine this evening and the I guess another update was pushed since this morning because the conflicting issues of jdk-openjdk and jre-openjdk have already been resolved. I simply did a pamac update, and everything got updated without any issues! Kudos to outstanding job at Manjaro team! 
I’m stuck with this:

What am I missing?
Update: Tested Wine 8.20 on that same EndeavourOS laptop and didn’t have these issues on there either. It’s looking like it’s a Manjaro issue specifically.
It’s worth routinely tidying the pacman cache.
I have a wrapper script for my system upgrades, and when it’s finished it does:
echo clear old cache packages...
sudo paccache -v -r
echo clear uninstalled cache packages...
sudo paccache -ruk0
I have it configured to keep 3 versions of each package (so I can downgrade if I need to, YMMV).
This also happened to me.
Yeah the overly large cache was on me.
On the other hand I did think I had it sorted, by setting pamac to keep only 1 old package. Seems I was wrong.
I’ll pinch your script, if you don’t mind.
I also had jre-openjdk and jre-openjdk-headless installed.
I had to do what you did, but with the pacman -d option (some things depended on it) to remove it and then reinstall jre-openjdk as you did.
The same problem - all windows (I use Plasma) lost header line, I cannot manage to minimize the window - only to close - and even Alt-Tab is not working. Thanx god I’ve regular timeshift backups confiured and i could retrn to 9th of november.
Did it twice with th same result 
Could you manage to resolve it?
Maybe stupid question, but after this update first time ever I saw in htop (which was not updated since 2023 feb.) new line
zrm[ 0K(0K)/0K]
A bit investigation and it’s something called zram. Never used it before to my knowledge.
However updated in this update was util-linux, which for example contains /usr/bin/zramctl.
So what changed now? suddenly I have zram activated(?) which I never had before? Why now? Why 0K? Used by what and whatfor?
Also another thing I noticed that started recently (if not this update, but max only a few before) is that my network nfs mounts in fstab do not automount anymore upon login. Had to add to fstab options after the nfs mounts _netdev and now they do mount once again. Previously I assume type nfs implicated that it’s “network device” … apparently not anymore?
The Power Management bug affects afaik, all KDE desktop users. And there’s seems only one combination of Powerdevil/DDcutil versions that keeps the users’ power management alive. In the KDE bug thread, the solution seems not in sight yet. Downgrading must be manually done by all those.
But maybe there are more users on laptops who are not affected so they wanna keep on the latest version on the other hand. Or on Gnome, Xfce too. I of course didn’t think of those.
I had a similar problem, had to ignore widgetaddons5, kcoreaddons5 and ki18n5 in the end.
