What to do with khotkeys?

I usually upgrae my system with:
pacman -Syu
pikaur -Syu

and from time to time
pacman -Rsn $(pacman -Qdtq)

After upgrade to plasma 6 after pikaur -S I get:

$ env LANG=C pikaur -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date

:: Starting full AUR upgrade...
Reading repository package databases...
Reading local package database...
Reading AUR packages info...
:: warning: Following package cannot be found in AUR:
    khotkeys    

:: Starting full system upgrade...
 there is nothing to do

$ env LANG=C pacman -Qi khotkeys

I did, no issues for me.  There were a few packages to which that happened with the upgrade to Plasma 6.
