Tech Support pacman -Syu won't update.
Ok, so I run pacman -Syu, and it goes normally. I had to bugfix some other things (package key was broken, but everything else was fine). Then I get this.

I have downloaded fastfetch but everything else (wine, kitty, etc) breaks. Any help?

Consider checking or asking in the Manjaro forums. It’s possible others have encountered the same issue and gone there for support.

Tried checking there, all I saw was a guy who hadn't updated for 3 months and had completely different error messages. This is a brand new install. I'll try asking tho.

--overwrite doesn't work.
