Normally I'd be like "what, fuck" for package resolution, but... I'm realizing suddenly why Arch folks love PKGBUILD so damn much and AUR.
It ensures building a package from source NEVER collides with other packages because the pkg declares the files it creates.
I'm annoyed obs-studio wasn't updated to properly declare obs-plugin-browser obsoleted by it so that Pacman itself would just go "Hey, OK to do that?" but that's just an annoyance. 'yay -R obs-plugin-browser' is all it took to fix.
