Conflicting files pacman

crmcalls · 2020-10-15 04:28:44

I updated my system using sudo pacman -Syu and it downloaded all packages the outputted:
(55/55) checking keys in keyring [----------------------------------------------] 100%
(55/55) checking package integrity [----------------------------------------------] 100%
(55/55) loading package files [----------------------------------------------] 100%
(55/55) checking for file conflicts [----------------------------------------------] 100%
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
libcurl-compat: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.6.0 exists in filesystem (owned by curl)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

I've looked at my pacman.log and nothing comes up that's relevant to this any help would be appreciated. I haven't deleted any files or directories that are of any significance and can't think of what the issue is.

There are two separate problems here:

If I had to guess you did something stupid like enable [community-testing] but not [testing].
You hid most of pacman's output because you decided you knew better than the forum help experts. This despite coming here specifically because you don't know what's going on and want help.
