Unable to satisfy dependencies

It seems lib32-jack has been dropped to AUR.

Why do i have AUR packages installed?

Unless installed explicitly from AUR, such packages may have been originally installed, either explicitly or as dependencies, when they were still in the main repositories.
Indeed, some packages in AUR were formerly in Arch’s repositories – and thus in Manjaro’s. Arch maintainers regularly check for packages to drop from their repositories; those packages are then removed from their repositories – and thus later from Manjaro’s – and moved to AUR.

Packages dropped to AUR can, usually, be safely removed from your system.

No package in Manjaro’s repositories have a mandatory dependency with AUR packages. They may have optional dependencies there though, in order to add functionalities.

An AUR package may require another AUR package.

Before removing an AUR package, you can look for installed packages requiring it:
pactree -r <package_name>
