Removing infinality bundle and fonts

I installed the infinality packages as an experiment, but I've been having major problems with a trust problem. Decided to remove the packages until I can find out why I'm getting trust issues after importing the key as instructed. Only to hit another problem - I can't remove the infinality packages either...

I tried this:

fang@altair ~]$ sudo pacman -S --asdeps freetype2 cairo fontconfig lib32-fontconfig lib32-cairo ttf-ubuntu-font-family ttf-droid ttf-liberation ttf-dejavu

Which comes up with the following errors:

looking for conflicting packages...
:: cairo and cairo-infinality-ultimate are in conflict. Remove cairo-infinality-ultimate? [y/N] y

:: lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate: removing freetype2-infinality-ultimate breaks dependency 'freetype2-infinality-ultimate'

I've tried every variation I can think of, but so far I've had no luck getting rid of any of the infinality packages. Can someone suggest how I resolve the dependency issues I'm seeing? Searching hasn't helped and I'd really like to get the system back to standard.

Re: Removing infinality bundle and fonts

Uninstall ibfonts-meta-base ibfonts-meta-extended-lt and lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate first

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it doesn't work either:

[fang@altair ~]$ sudo pacman -R ibfonts-meta-base ibfonts-meta-extended-lt lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate 
checking dependencies...
