I confirm. Since 2 days I can't update this package.

$ sudo pacman -S antergos-kde-setup

Been having this problem for weeks now. It's a shame since I really want to try out KDE 5.11. I'm getting the same error messages as you guys about the conflicts.

[piomiq]

Workaround is just install package manually (by pacman -S package_name) from terminal using --force swticher. BTW. Later I met similar error also for some other package.

[Jimmyb1126]

Not much of a valid workaround if it still causes errors, I wouldn't recommend forcing it. If anyone knows a way to fix this without breaking anything I'd greatly appreciate some help.

[karasu]

@Jimmyb1126 Using force with this package is totally fine. You already had those files because they were installed by Cnchi (antergos installer). We've changed that behavior so now they are installed with the antergos-kde-setup package. This way they can be updated with the package. I hope this clarifies it. Cheers!

[Jimmyb1126]

Oh okay, I just tried forcing and it did actually work fine! I thought it might break things at first but thanks for clarifying for me.
