cannot upgrade zfs-dkms and zfs-utils

[mangoducksparkles]

Affected Version

yay v11.1.2.r4.ged62496 - libalpm v13.0.1

Describe the bug

yay cannot figure out how to upgrade zfs-dkms and zfs-utils because zfs-dkms depends on zfs-utils.

Reproduction Steps

1. have an old version of zfs-dkms and zfs-utils installed
2. run yay -Syu --devel or yay -Syu --devel --batchinstall

Expected behavior

yay upgrades the two packages

Output

:: installing zfs-utils (2.1.4-1) breaks dependency 'zfs-utils=2.1.3' required by zfs-dkms

[grandchild]

Duplicate of #803, #1275, #1457, possibly others.

[Jguer]

Should be fixed in yay-git, if it's not (I think there might be an order dependent case) an extra step can be added to retry adding failed packages one more time to the graph.

Closing until more feedback

[Axionize]

This seem to work but only for zfs-utils and zfs-dkms with yay -Syu regardless if the --batchinstall flag is added or not. For circular dependency cases like libnvidia-container-tools and nvidia-container-toolkit yay still will not upgrade the packages.
