```
There are some [open bugs](https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/73574) to fix these conflicts, but in the meantime, we'll just manually remove `python-wiktionaryparser`, `mvt`, `sl`, `singularity`, `tesseract-data-osd`, `kea-docs`, `lrzsz`, from our list of packages to install.
Let's rerun the command above, and hope for the best this time!
Normally this isn't a good idea, but since we don't care if we end up with a broken system, let's tell `pacman` to ignore all conflicting files:
```sh
sudo pacman -Sdd $(cat out)
sudo pacman -Sdd $(cat out) --overwrite '*'
```
Alright, I'm still waiting on this command to finish. Check back later!
