It seems your system is rather out of date and/or has old packages.

Do you have python-shiboken2 on purpose?

It is not in the repositories.

You may wish to check on things like your orphan packages (not required by anything);

pacman -Qdtq

And all foreign packages (not in the repos);

pacman -Qmq

Please share the output of those commands so we can review and, optionally, clean them out.

Some of these outputs indicate to me this is from an older install image.

Just wondering - is this a new install?

If it is I might advise starting with a fresh ISO, so as to not have to deal with all the extra work of upgrading through major changes.

If its not a new install, then its just a little behind some changes but we can surmount them.

These are all ‘foreign’ packages. Some of them are from the AUR and you probably have them on purpose. google-chrome and cloudflare-warp-bin being some examples.
Some others may be called ‘super-aliens’ as they dont exist in the repositories OR the AUR.
These should likely all be removed.

Some I think you might not need;

I can point out a few I am sure you dont need;

So, if you agree, then all of those should be removed. Almost none of these exist in the repos or the AUR, and the few that do (python-shiboken2, v86d) should not be needed.

sudo pacman -Rns lib32-libva-vdpau-driver maia-wallpaper manjaro-artwork manjaro-hotfixes manjaro-mate-panel-layout manjaro-mate-settings python-manjaro-sdk python-shiboken2 v86d web-installer-url-handler

The orphans can be removed en-masse. They have already been printed for you, and only you can know if you actually want one of them. In such a case they should be marked ‘–asexplicit’ to be removed from the orphans list. If not, or once done, then

sudo pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qdtq)

With all the unneeded packages gone, and that including the previous python-shiboken2 that was blocking the upgrade, you should now be able to update as usual.

pamac upgrade --aur --force-refresh

PS

I’m going to split this topic in two, as there are now 2 distinct issues.
