As mentioned in the titel the merge of this two packages prevents me from updating.

sudo pacman -Syu gives me the following output:

:: Package databases are synchronised ... core is up to date extra 8.3 MiB 22.2 MiB/s 00:00 [--------------------------------------------------------------------] 100% community is up to date multilib is up to date :: Complete system update is started ... :: replace analitza with extra/analitza5?

Conflicting packages are searched for ... Error: Unresolvable package conflicts found Error: Process could not be prepared (Conflicting dependencies) :: jdk-openjdk and jre-openjdk are in conflict with each other

pacman -Qi tells me the following:

and

Manually updating/removing one of the two packages still gives me the Error that they are conflicting.

Does anyone knows how i can fix this problem?

The recommended command doesnt work for me. I get the same error message mentioned in my post.

Might try just removing it, pacman -R jre-openjdk and then pacman -Syu jdk-openjdk

That didn't work. If I used packman -Rdd it worked.
