gcc6-gcj: installing gcc6 (6.4.1-1) breaks dependency 'gcc6=6.4.0-3'

Hello, when updating packages with

sudo pacman -Syu

I get the following message:

:: Synchronizing package databases...

:: gcc6-gcj: installing gcc6 (6.4.1-1) breaks dependency 'gcc6=6.4.0-3'

How can I solve this?
Thank you

Where did you install the gcc6-gcj package from? It's not in the repos or the AUR.

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Removing all the gcc6-* and gcc-* (except gcc-libs) solved the problem.

Thank you.
