Hi,

I installed packages from the testing repository, then I commented it.

Now when I ask pacman for an upgrade (-Su) it proposes me to install a smaller version of one (but not all!) of the packages that was installed from testing:

xf86-video-ati 6.13.0-1 is installed, and pacman proposes me to install xf86-video-ati 6.12.192-1

I don't see any reason for that...
This task depends upon

that is happening because xf86-video-ati 6.12.192-1 has a force option.
