Hi I’m new to the forum and you are my last resource 
Well this is my second Garuda install, the first one just crashed due to lack of space, it was on a 120GB SSD and upgraded it to a 1TB so now I’m commited to using Garuda as my daily driver and first linux based on Arch.
I have some experience with other distros and OS’s but, Arch is a very interesting beast 
the AUR repos, Pacman and a lot of stuff is very new to me.
I have solved a lot of stuff reading (there’s a lot of stuff to learn), but now I have a very particular problem that is keeping me from updating the OS and forced me to research about electron; I usually avoid this kind of programs unless there’s nothing on bauh in the default repos: garuda, chaotic-aur, core, etc.)
The update fails due some dependency and I don’t know if I should remove the library or might break something important.
So I’m posting my inxi and the problem I got using the aproved method of update:

So any help is really apreciated as I’m very obsesive about keeping my system up to date due to it’s use as a daily driver and it’s been more than a month I’m stuck investigating the problem.
