|
conflict with anything else that provides the same thing, you
|
|
|
|
|
can now do this by specifying the provisio target as both a
|
|
|
|
|
provides and a conflict, eg:
|
|
|
|
|
conflicts=('x-server')
|
|
|
|
|
provides=('x-server')
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- if pacman sees a newer version of itself during an upgrade,
