I run regular updates with my daily desktop running Garuda. A while back, it started throwing a long list of red errors similar to this:

I say “similar” because I’m not sure if it’s changed with time, but I’m having trouble finding and/or installing the mentioned dependencies such as libQt53DLogic.
I tried running “garuda-update -a” to include AUR stuff, but it just kicked back with:

I feel like I’m missing something obvious, but I’m out of ideas. Thanks.
How did you update? Did you use
garuda-update -a
Yes. With and without -a flag. Same result.
Well this issue is addressed on the Garuda forum. I suggest you ask there.
Seems like there’s an issue with pyside2 and paru: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyside2
If you don’t need it, remove pyside2?
I also see some KF5/Plasma5 stuff mentioned in there. Arch (and therefore Garuda) moved on to KF6/Plasma6 a while ago.
Example: The khotkeys no longer exist in Arch. So remove that and it’s unneeded dependencies and try updating again.
Pyside2 is an AUR package, so try removing it first, update the system, then install/build it again if you need it.
Anything in the AUR is not important for Arch to function. Only to other AUR packages.
Is it removable? Briefly reading the page makes it seem kind of important on the back end.
Do you have some custom repos enabled? Seems like you’re trying to update a package that has a dependency not available with whatever is in the default repos. Disable all custom repos and then see if it updates first.
