Archlinux - no package found when upgrade through yay

When trying to update system, I encounter a peculiar issue where yay identifies that a nodejs-lts-gallium would need to be upgraded, through direct? or indirect (most likely) depdency:
$ yay -Syu
(...)
 -> No AUR package found for nodejs-lts-gallium
(...)
 -> could not find all required packages: nodejs-lts-gallium
It seems that this package has been removed from aur. I'm not able to find out how to get away from this message, as I don't seem to find which package is dependent upon this package:
$ pacman -Q | grep nodejs
And looking in paclog about this package, I find that it was removed:
paclog --package=nodejs-lts-gallium

My question is: * **What is yay looking for when it receives** -> No AUR package found for nodejs-lts-gallium ? Is there a command to get exactly that information ? * **How can this error be resolved** ? Full log of yay:
