Package A and package B are in conflict, but package B is not found

I successfully update my keys:

Code: [Select]
$ sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys
$ sudo pacman -Sy artix-keyring

Then I try to update my system:

Code: [Select]
$ sudo pacman -Syu

The error message is:
Code: [Select]
looking for conflicting packages...
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: kuserfeedback and kuserfeedback5 are in conflict

I then check the details of these conflicting packages:

Code: [Select]
$ sudo pacman -Qi kuserfeedback
Name            : kuserfeedback

Code: [Select]
$ sudo pacman -Qi kuserfeedback5
error: package 'kuserfeedback5' was not found

- How can these two packages be in conflict if one of them does not exist on my system?
- How can I fix this issue?

-----------

I then did something I was suggested in the past:

Code: [Select]
$ sudo paccheck --list-broken
artix-branding-base
audit
filesystem
gitlab
gitlab-shell
gssproxy
$ sudo mv /etc/pacman.d/gnupg /etc/pacman.d/gnupg-original
$ sudo pacman-key --init
$ sudo pacman -Syyu

So, before the error was: package 'kuserfeedback5' was not found
Now it seems to be related to sublime-text.

I am confused...

Find out what requires kuserfeedback5.
(Don't truncate the output you post so much)

I included the whole output.
How can I find out what requires kuserfeedback5 if kuserfeedback5 is not in my system?

Re: Package A and package B are in conflict, but package B is not found

pactree -r kuserfeedback5  
pacman-contrib has pactree

Or
grep -r kuserfeedback5 /var/lib/pacman/local
Should give you an idea based on the directory names if you don't have pactree.

If it comes up blank except for /var/lib/pacman/local/kuserfeedback****
then run your pacman update with the --debug option
Something must want kuserfeedback5.

From either:

Code: [Select]
pactree -r kuserfeedback5  
grep -r kuserfeedback5 /var/lib/pacman/local

I get no result. I do from:

Code: [Select]
pactree -r kuserfeedback  
grep -r kuserfeedback /var/lib/pacman/local

From:
Code: [Select]
sudo pacman update --debug
I get plenty of logs. The most relevant seem to be:
