Can't update my clean install of Garuda XFCE or Cinnamon

Hello

My first forum post ever, or any forum, so I’m sorry for my mistakes. I did search all day for answers and I can’t find.

I did try to re-install Garuda linux with Cinnamon DE and after clean install, at first system upgrade, I’ve got an error:
“Cannot resolve ‘kvantum-qt5’, a dependency of ‘garuda-cinnamon-settings’
The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependecies:
garuda-cinnamon-settings
Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade?”

If i press no system won’t update; pressing yes updates the system without this package.

Then I did try to install Garuda with XFCE DE, and after clean install, at the first system update I get the following error:

 garuda is up to date

below is my garuda-inxi.

I’m using garuda only for 2 months now, daily, and I falled inlove with it. I’d love to use XFCE, if that’s rlly not an option then Cinnamon. Please help me debug this, I’m a bit new to Linux also.

Sorry for the long story and probably a bad explanation, and sorry for the bad english.

Both issues are now fixed. XFCE and Cinnamon can now be updated normally with garuda-update to the best of my knowledge.
