In that case your best bet is creating an empty package that just
provides sudo and is empty otherwise. That will satisfy pacman and will
also fulfill your desire to not have sudo on your system.

But IMO your best bet is to use a package like doas-sudo-shim[0], which
should allow most programs and scripts to continue working properly,
even if they don't support doas directly.
