glava: "glfw-x11 and glfw-x11-git are in conflict (glfw)"

Hi, I encountered the following error message using pacaur:

glfw-x11 and glfw-x11-git are in conflict (glfw). Remove glfw-x11-git? [y/N]

However, if I answer yes to removing glfw-x11-git, I get the following error message:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: glava-git: removing glfw-x11-git breaks dependency 'glfw-x11-git'
:: Building glava-git package(s)...
==> Making package: glava-git r133.5ac2cc4-1 (Sun Mar  4 23:30:00 EST 2018)

error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: glfw-x11 and glfw-x11-git are in conflict
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.
:: failed to build glava-git package(s)

Yaourt gives me this message:

:: glava-git: removing glfw-x11-git breaks dependency 'glfw-x11-git'

This comes up every time I try to upgrade my packages using pacaur. What should I do? Thanks!

Remove both, glava-git and glfw-x11-git in the same transaction if you want to switch to the repo packages

pacman -R glava-git glfw-x11-git

reinstall glava-git afterwards again if you need it.

Thanks! I just removed glava-git, and when I went to reinstall it, it gave the prompt to remove glfw-x11-git, but this time, when I answered yes, it installed successfully.
