DetailsDescription:I am using this wiki page.
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Install_Arch_from_within_another_distro#Install_Base_System I am in my 32 bit chroot. I have followed the directions up to the 'install base system' Method 1. When I enter this cmd (pacman -Sy base -r /newarch --ignore kernel26) pacman refuses to ignore kernel26, even after answering it's own question a second time on whether I would like to install kernel26. Here is a pastebin too make things more clear. http://rafb.net/p/3e72Fr79.html Additional info: *****pastebin here in case link goes dead***** :: [root@kermit /]# pacman.static -Sy base -r /newarch --ignore kernel26 :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date base package not found, searching for group... :: group base (including ignored packages): acl attr bash binutils bzip2 ca-certificates coreutils cpio cracklib cryptsetup dash db dcron device-mapper dhcpcd dialog dmapi e2fsprogs file filesystem findutils gawk gcc-libs gdbm gen-init-cpio gettext glibc grep groff grub gzip hdparm hwdetect initscripts iputils jfsutils kbd kernel-headers kernel26 klibc klibc-extras klibc-kbd klibc-module-init-tools klibc-udev less libarchive libdownload libgcrypt libgpg-error libpcap libusb licenses logrotate lvm2 lzo2 mailx man man-pages mdadm mkinitcpio mlocate module-init-tools nano ncurses net-tools openssl pacman pam pciutils pcmciautils pcre perl popt ppp procinfo procps psmisc readline reiserfsprogs rp-pppoe sdparm sed shadow sysfsutils syslog-ng sysvinit tar tcp_wrappers texinfo tzdata udev usbutils util-linux-ng vi wget which wpa_supplicant xfsprogs zlib :: Install whole content?

Probably this is fixed by my (not yet accepted) patch "New error type: PM_ERR_PKG_IGNORED" in my working repo:
http://repo.or.cz/w/pacman-ng.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/working
""
I also think this patch should fix this issue, which is quite annoying btw, I ran into it myself.
In these problematic cases the back-end (before my patch) returns with PKG_NOT_FOUND, which we also could omit, but it would be a bit dirtier imho. And I thought that the new "error" type (PKG_IGNORED) can be useful in some other cases.
