Can't replace hyprwayland-scanner with hyprwayland-scanner-git. (lemmy.ml)

In order to update hyprland-git, I need to install hyprwayland-scanner-git. But when I try to install it, pacman says that it failed to commit a transaction.

I followed the arch wiki, but unfortunately, the file in question is owned by hyprwayland-scanner, so I'm not sure how to proceed.

yay -Rd hyprwayland-scanner # (or -Rdd but danger ahead) 
yay -S --asdeps hyprwayland-scanner-git

Thanks! That worked for me (I just used yay -Rd hyprwayland-scanner-debug aswell).
