Thanks, I tried that and it seems like xf86-input-libinput was not installed. Explains why I cant remove it, but I'm still confused why there would be a conflict.

Try updating the packages one at a time

Hello all I had no internet for 3 weeks after moving and I Just updated for the first time again. Pacman now tells me that xf86-input-libinput and xorg-server are in confict and wants to remove xorg-server. I use xorg-server not wayland, so I dont think that is a good idea.

I tried removing xf86-input-libinput with pacman -Rdd xf86-input-libinput but that results in: target not found.

How can there be a conflict if xf86-input-libinput isnt there?

Regards Patrick

Since Xorg 1.18.0 you can now choose between xf86-input-evdev and xf86-input-libinput. Pacman would then try to install one of these when updating Xorg, but since you still technically had Xorg version < 1.18.0, and the packages conflict with xorg-server<1.18.0 pacman would automatically try to remove xorg-server to allow xf86-input-libinput to be installed.

The solution would then be to just update xorg-server manually and then -Syu again... I think.
