Inner conflicts

Hi!

What are "inner" conflicts and how can I resolve them? Admittedly this is on a system that hasn't been updated in a long time.
Is it possible to force the updates, break parts of the system and then fix dependencies in a 2nd step?

Prior to Plasma 6 the preceding, ordinary conflict checking already failed.

# yay -Syuw --noconfirm
...
:: Checking for conflicts...
:: Checking for inner conflicts...
 -> Inner conflicts found:
 -> sdl12-compat: sdl
 -> Package conflicts found:
 -> Installing at-spi2-core will remove: at-spi2-atk (at-spi2-atk<=2.38.0-2), atk (atk<=2.38.0-2)
 -> Installing libplasma will remove: plasma-framework
 -> Installing kate will remove: kwrite
 -> Installing plasma-activities will remove: kactivities
 -> package conflicts can not be resolved with noconfirm, aborting

# yay -Qi plasma-framework kactivities at-spi2-atk atk | egrep '^(Name|Version)'
Name            : plasma-framework
Version         : 5.91.0-1
Name            : kactivities
Version         : 5.91.0-1
Name            : at-spi2-atk
Version         : 2.38.0-1
Name            : atk
Version         : 2.36.0-1

thx

Use pacman for system updates.

Cause is gonna be the kde6 shift, but that's irrelevant.

Re: Inner conflicts

Get rid of yay.  Really.  Not only is that most of the problem here - it has also prevented you from understanding the most basic functions of your package manager.  There is no reason to pipe -Qi output through grep to get the name and version, just use -Q properly in the first place: it shows just the package name and version!
