Garuda-update conflict between python-vdf-solstice and python-vdf

I’m running into an issue with garuda update, i just did an update one or two days ago without issues and today i get this conflict between python-vdf-solstice and python-vdf, before accepting the sugestion to remove python-vdf i decided to check the origin of the packages however according to pacman only python-vdf exists:

(The warning about reshade-shader-git has existed since a long while so i don’t think it has to do with this, advice on this is appreciated too)

Try y(es)

pacman -Ss python-vdf-solstice
chaotic-aur/python-vdf-solstice 3.5-1
    Library for working with Valve's VDF text format (Solstice Game Studios fork)

The update went without problems and after a reboot everything is fine. After running pacman -Qi python-vdf-solstice it shows its required by protontricks-git so i guess they migrated from regular vdf to the solstice fork.

Thank you very much
