Retroarch: failed to resolve dependency libhidapi-hidraw.so on upgrade

The following error happened this afternoon:

$ pac upgrade 
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
warning: apparmor: ignoring package upgrade (2.13.4-6 => 3.0.0-2)
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "libhidapi-hidraw.so", a dependency of "libretro-dolphin"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      libretro-dolphin

:: Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade? [y/N] 
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: unable to satisfy dependency 'libhidapi-hidraw.so' required by libretro-dolphin

* "pac" is just a shell script I made. Its backend is plain old pacman.

Might it be that the mirrors I'm using are not in sync yet or is this a real issue with the dependencies list of libretro?

Is it happening to you too?

Best regards.

Looks like it requires a package in community-testing. That's a packaging bug.

I just upgraded libretro-dolphin and it's now fixed.

Thank you for the suggestion Scimmia.
