Removing infinality-bundle - coflict and dependencies

I have installed infinality-bundle as I am playing about with the font-rendering and this was a very quick an easy solution. I'd like to revert to the standard freetype2 package. the wiki states:

To restore the unpatched packages, reinstall the originals:
# pacman -S --asdeps freetype2 cairo fontconfig

When I run this I answer yes to the conflicts but it gives the following error:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

:: lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate: requires cairo-infinality-ultimate
:: lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate: requires fontconfig-infinality-ultimate
:: lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate: requires freetype2-infinality-ultimate

I've tried installing the lib32-freetype2 but end up going round in circles with the conflicts/dependencies.

Can anyone give me an idea how I would go about reverting back to the standard packages?

Many thanks

Just add the lib32 variants to the reinstall command? The standard packages have intuitive names, like lib32-cairo etc.

Thanks mariusmeyer, I new it would be something simple! Doh! For anyone finding this post I issued the following commands:

sudo pacman -S --asdeps lib32-freetype2 lib32-cairo lib32-fontconfig

followed by

sudo pacman -S --asdeps lib32-freetype2 lib-32cairo lib32-fontconfig

This returned the system to the original state.

Sorry...
I must use in sequence:

sudo pacman -S --asdeps lib32-freetype2 lib32-cairo lib32-fontconfig
sudo pacman -S --asdeps freetype2 cairo fontconfig

It is ok?
After what I must configure?

There are countless infinality threads active right now - yet somehow, simona, you dug up one that is over 3 years old.

Please do not necrobump.
