Maybe because the jre thing was an update that required manual intervention, there was an Arch news item about it. You’re expected to read the Arch news before an update when you’re running Arch. This can be automated with aliasupdate='yay -Pw && pacman -syu' If that’s too much for you, use a different distro.
I just went “Shiit! Am I sitting on potential system breakage?” (because I don’t remember doing any such intervention)
But turns out it was just a conflicts with change.

Manual intervention is when GRUB doesn’t install properly using the suggested command and you have to learn where your distro places the boot image and configure stuff accordingly.

Those are rookie numbers son, you gotta get on that.
You ppl don’t use auto archive/categorise/delete ?
