qt5ct bug, can't use Qupzilla or other QT programs.. and NVIDIA update

Hey guys, I woke up this morning & Qupzilla wouldn't open... qt5ct won't open either, I get this same stupid error every time.
There was an update yesterday for qt5-styleplugins which I think caused this.
Also, I can't really do updates because of an NVIDIA update.

 qt5ct
qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50903) with this library (version 0x50902)
Aborted

qupzilla
qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin
Fatal: Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50903) with this library (version 0x50902)
Aborted

looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: nvidia-ck: installing nvidia-utils (387.34-1) breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=387.22'


Edit: I assume this is probably a problem for everyone else too, I installed qt5-styleplugins-git from the AUR & now its working again thankfully, I don't know how I'd survive without Qupzilla!

Strange  qt5-webengine  qt5-x11extras qt5-svg are the only deps for qubzilla 2.2. 1-1

Yea but QT5CT is what sets the theme, I've seen this error before on other distros... It changes Qupzilla's theme, so its not a dependency for Qupzilla but if it bugs then it won't open at all.

Ugh... its doing it again, but this time its only Qupzilla that isn't working... I had to uninstall the arch AUR qt5-styleplugins & install the new one to make it work, but now Qupzilla won't open, but qt5ct is opening which is odd... Was there an update for Qupzilla that happened on Arch Linux but that hasn't happened on Artix yet????

edit: Speak of the devil I literally just got a qt5-webengine update! Yay! now it works again :P

I think it might be a good idea to make Artix only use Artix repos & make the Arch repos that are in use, like, go into an Artix repo, like make it its own Artix repo, so that way developers can put those updates forward with the rest of them & it won't break compatibility.. I wish I could say this in a clearer way.

The qt5-webengine automatic package build failed because resources were exhaust in the building machine so we had to compile it manually and update the repository.

Oh, well I'm glad you guys got it sorted out! but the qt5-styleplugins ended up breaking compatibility with all my QT apps because QT5CT styles them all.

I might be wrong but my theory is that we get some of the updates straight from the Arch Linux repositories, I think its probably a good idea to make it so its not directly from Arch repositories, so the updates from Arch go into an Artix repository & you guys choose when they get released so that way compatibilities aren't broken. Maybe there's a way to set it up so that let's say for example we have
 [arch repo 1] and [arch repo 2] all that software instead of going directly onto Artix Linux is delayed until you guys(developers) want them to be released with the rest of the repos that you guys do, maybe kind of like Manjaro? I wish I could put this into more clearer words!!

That's just what my theory/suggestion based on theory is, please don't take it the wrong way I'm just trying to be helpful, I know you guys know better than me, I'm very happy with Artix Linux - I have it running on all of my x64 computers! You guys have really built an amazing OS, thank you for everything you all do! Trust me when I say your work does not go unappreciated! Maybe one day I'll be smart/rich enough to be able to contribute to development  :P
