On an opposing note, updating my Arch system (pikaur -Syu) recently wanted to install Electron 20 and remove Electron 19, which the element-desktop package was still depending on. I wasn't using it so that's an easy uninstall. But there's nothing inherent about Arch that prevents these issues from popping up every now and then.

hm that's weird, with yay it only ever adds new electron versions, never removes the old ones. e.g. there's electron12 to 20 in the repos and they can be installed side by side
