[SOLVED]Problem changing repo for python packages on every pacman -Syu

I'm getting the following questions every time I run "pacman -Syu":

:: Replace python-pylint-plugin-utils with extra/python-pylint-plugin-utils? [Y/n]
:: Replace python-pylint-pydantic with extra/python-pylint-pydantic? [Y/n]

I've tried typing both "Y" and "n", but still get asked these same questions every time.  Is there any way to fix this?

It can be fixed, yes, but it has to be done by the maintainer. It's a packaging but, the package claims to replace itself. Report it on Arch's gitlab if it's not already there.
