My system update has not been working for some time now because I have unresolved dependencies:

looking for conflicting packages...

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

:: installing expat (2.8.2-1.1) breaks dependency 'expat=2.8.1' required by lib32-expat

:: installing libffi (3.6.0-1.1) breaks dependency 'libffi=3.5.2' required by lib32-libffi

Is there a way to see which end-user applications depend on these lib32 components (so that I can uninstall them if necessary)?

Is there another way to resolve this dependency issue?

I don't see any application at the end.
