 active.

 the update libgcc10 provides the primary runtime, whilst after the update
 libgcc11 does. The problem is the update process tries to install the new
 libgcc11 before the old libgcc10 is updated, leading to a temporary
 situation where they conflict.

 Can you clarify what you mean by "before the old libgcc10 is updated?"
