How do I fix this?
I run Yaourt -Syu and get this (also used pacman -Syu)

By searching the forums for the phrase "DRI1". If you use any of those cards, you might not want to upgrade libgl. Otherwise delete the DRI1 drivers and the upgrade will work.
By the way, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … _The_Staff. Not sure if karol counts as staff but the top poster might as well be.

Great things come in tar.xz packages.

@karol didn't want to try much. Wanted to delete libegl but I was a afraid to remove to much in the system.
@ConnorBehan Didn't know about the DRI1 drivers. How did you figure that out? (btw I respect the staff and generally everybody, but I just hate when I got a "wise ass" response. Sorry if I got you offended Koral)

karol was being polite. Don't expect spoonfeeding here: demonstrate a wilingness to try and solve your problems, otherwise the next response you get will not be as polite.

You should simply search for 'libgl'. Both the forums and the bugtracker has some interesting info - you could learn that these *-dri drivers are DRI1 version and are no longer maintained.
Why do you want to remove libgl? What makes you think that is the right thing to do? Can you please post a link to a thread that says you should remove libgl when facing issues like yours?

As I just edited (before I saw you post) Sorry for the offend. Believe me, I only use this forum for help when I have ABSOLUTELY no idea what I'm doing

I seriously don't know what to search. I can look for days if I just search libgl or libgl upgrade. I don't have a link to a thread that says I should remove libgl. I just worked with another problem I had one (which I found on these forums)

Did you really search for 'libgl' in the forum search?
In the first ten results it returned I see '[Solved] requires libgl=7.11.2'. Seems related to the issue you have.

Sorry didn't see that one. I remove all the dri drivers and now its updating. Thanks for the help. Btw what are the dri drivers for anyway?

I usually use google for searching the Arch forums
site:bbs.archlinux.org libgl
as it can even restrict the search to e.g. last month.
DRI = direct rendering infrastructure, stuff used to make 3D work: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/
You only need drivers (whether for 2D or 3D) for your card, not for every card there is, so you shouldn't e.g. install the whole xorg group ('pacman -S xorg') but follow the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#Installation
