I tried to do a system update and this happened:
# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
:: The following packages should be upgraded first :
pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n] Yresolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: xz conflicts with lzma-utils. Remove lzma-utils? [Y/n] Y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: yelp: requires lzma-utils>=4.32.7
# pacman -S lzma-utils
:: The following packages should be upgraded first :
pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n] nwarning: provider package was selected (xz provides lzma-utils)
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: xz conflicts with lzma-utils. Remove lzma-utils? [Y/n] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: xz: conflicts with lzma-utils
so should I remove xz? I don't want to start removing things and dig myself into a bigger hole than I am in already

pacman -R yelp
pacman -Syu (will just upgrade pacman, yes to replace lzma with xz)
pacman -Su
pacman -S yelp

xz is "a new version" of lzma-utils, xz "provides" lzma-utils.
[karol@black ~]$ pacman -Si xz | grep Provides
Provides : lzma lzma-utils xz-utils
