Hi
Hoping someone can help me with this!
Whenever I run yaourt -Syua I get the below output:
:: Synchronising package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
multilib is up to date
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: package-query: requires pacman<3.6
:: pacman-color: requires pacman<3.6
So if I try pacman -Syu I get this:
:: Synchronising package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
multilib is up to date
:: The following packages should be upgraded first :
pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n] y
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: package-query: requires pacman<3.6
:: pacman-color: requires pacman<3.6
Same sorta thing.
I've never had any issues with pacman before and I'm completely bewildered
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

It's not an excuse. Arch changes fast and you should try to fix it yourself.

Well, that's returned a few mixed results, so I'm looking through them. I realise I might have jumped the gun a bit a posted early on, but I deemed it an acceptable move, perhaps not best practice, so I'll certainly take that into consideration in the future.
With all due respect, especially to someone who's helped me in the past, it's quite patronising to insinuate that I was trying to excuse myself, I'm not asking anyone to hold my hand through it. I appreciate your advice, I really do, however the 'It's not an excuse' part is a bit unnecessary.
EDIT: Wellll, this looks like it'll be a short lived post (proving karol completely right and making me look like a pre-menstrual phycobitch)
I've found a post with an issue almost identical to mine... so I'm in the process of trying the fix

Ah, thanks for pointing that out! I had no idea
Okay, so I've got a bit of functionality now. I've managed to get Pacman functioning properly, however, now I'm getting signature issues:
:: Synchronising package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
multilib is up to date
archlinuxfr is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
warning: marlin-bzr: local (786-1) is newer than archlinuxfr (364-1)

The same happens if I run yaourt -Syua
I've put SigLevel = Optional TrustAll in my pacman.conf
I keep being prompted to enter y/n
Any ideas?
EDIT:
I just ran the below and it all seems to be going swimmingly
sudo mv /etc/pacman.conf /etc/pacman.conf.old
sudo mv /etc/pacman.conf.pacnew /etc/pacman.conf
sudo pacman-key --init
I'll mark as solved once confirmed Thanks for the help guys!

I had to change keyserver to

get the keys working.
