Description:

If I try to install kdepim without kalarm:

# pacman -S kdepim --ignore kdepim-kalarm --needed
warning: kdepim-kaddressbook-4.4.7-1 is up to date -- skipping
warning: kdepim-kmail-4.4.7-1 is up to date -- skipping

kdepim-wizards-4.4.7-1 [0.07 MB]

pacman don't skip the package, but it should.

Man page says, that «Directs pacman to ignore __upgrades__ of package even if there is one available».

Ok, try #2 (I have kmail installed):

# pacman -S kdepim --ignore kdepim-kmail
