Arch Linux

Hello guys!

I want to completely remove qemu and all its optional packages. I went about removing most of them, but now I have this list of packages still installed:

$ pacman -Q | grep qemu
qemu-base 9.1.2-1
qemu-common 9.1.2-1
qemu-img 9.1.2-1
qemu-system-x86 9.1.2-1
qemu-system-x86-firmware 9.1.2-1

If I try to remove them with pacman -R <list of those package> I get the following message:

checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing qemu-base breaks dependency 'qemu' required by libguestfs
 -> exit status 1

When I add libguestfs to that list, I get the following output:

pacman -R qemu-base qemu-common qemu-img qemu-system-x86 qemu-system-x86-firmware libguestfs

I'm seeing stuff in there about grub and some other packages I definitely DO NOT want to remove, so I'm wondering how I can proceed.

Thanks in advance!
