I get this today when trying to 'pacman -Syu' or 'yay'.
Can anyone advise best course of action please?
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks, but do you know what I should do here?

AUR packages are your responsibility, not pacman's.
Moving to AUR Issues...

OK I understand that, but I do not know how to determine which AUR packages are involved even. I should post to ffmpeg-git aur? Actually, there are a lot of ffmpeg AUR packages so I don't even know which AUR place to take it to even if that is what I'm supposed to do.
$ pacman -Q ffmpeg
ffmpeg 1:4.1-1
$ sudo pacman -Rns ffmpeg

Do any packages need ffmpeg2.8
pacman -Qi ffmpeg2.8

I see now, I think. I have been using it for spek, which I've been using a lot recently to help me clean up my music library. I don't need spek to block my ability to update though, can possibly find something other than spek if I have to.
So I should post to the spek AUR maybe?

Thanks,

I would suggest removing ffmpeg2.8 and spek then doing the full system upgrade. You could then build an updated ffmpeg2.8 and reinstall spek.
Offline
You need to rebuild your ffmpeg2.8 package for the latest x265 update (libx265.so=169-64). You could also try spek-git which according to the comment on spek aur page, supports latest ffmpeg.
Offline
Yes! spek-git seems to have straightened me out.
Thanks all for the quick responses!
