Details

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure [community-testing] is enabled, but below [community].
2. Install community-testing/haskell-x11 (1.5.0.0-1)
3. pacman -Syu

Pacman tries to "upgrade" haskell-x11 to the [community] version:

warning: ghc: local (6.12.1-1) is newer than extra (6.10.4-1)
warning: haskell-x11: ignoring package upgrade (1.5.0.0-1 => 1.4.6.1-1)
warning: haskell-x11-xft: local (0.3-11) is newer than community (0.3-10)

Note that the other two haskell packages, ghc and haskell-x11-xft, are indeed newer, but haskell-x11-xft is considered older.
This task depends upon

not a bug. community-testing should be on top of community to have priority.
