Two garuda-update packages installed simultaneously?

Hello all,
I searched the forum for this issue but didn’t find it.
I have two copies of garuda-update installed. My guess is that one is a leftover from the original install yet somehow, another copy was installed. Octopi shows the original (and older) version is from the chaotic-aur repo while the newer, up-to-date version shows it is from the garuda repo.
It doesn’t seem to cause a problem but it’s just annoying to look at, ha.
I thought about looking up a command to force uninstall the old version (because I can’t regular uninstall it because of the hard dependencies on a bunch of other garuda packages). I abandoned that idea because looking at the packages in Octopi, I see that the files of both packages are installed in the same exact locations. IDK how I would get around that problem. I also don’t know how this happened in the first place.
Thoughts? Ideas? Recommendations?

Shoot. My mistake. I misread the yellow indicator as outdated and / or another issue with the symbol on it.
Why are there still two in two different repos though?

There is an explanation here in the forum, I just don’t have time to look for it. :smiley:

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you for the explanation.
