Summary and Info:
Pacman should check if package that's going to be installed has the same architecture as the system. In case architectures of the package and the system differ - a warning should be given and "Are you sure you want to install <pkgname>? [y/N]" question asked. (it should still be possible to install a package if user knows what (s)he's doing) Steps to Reproduce: just try installing a package for different architecture, no warning is given Or for adventurous (Warning! Your pacman installation will be screwed! :-P), my own mistake: Add this to pacman.conf on x86_64 system: [pacman-git] Server = http://dev.archlinux.org/~dan/pacman-git/ x86_64 pacman will be replaced with i686 pacman-git - oops! That's because of simple mistake in repo name (it should have been [pacman-git-64]). |

For example in your case :
pacman -S pacman-git will fail
but pacman -S --arch i686 pacman-git will work
