    I have bad news for you: there are AI slop contributions in more than just the D compiler package. You’re fighting an uphill battle.

    I don’t know anything about the D compiler specifically, but in general, pacman doesn’t support partial system upgrades. If the package has no dependencies (or has very stable dependencies) you may be OK with the older package.

    All that said, if you still have the old package, you can reinstall it with:

    pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/<old_pkg_name>.pkg.tar.zst

    You’ll also have to add the package name to your IgnorePkg list in /etc/pacman.conf.
