Details

Description:

I got this error message while upgrading irqbalance:
(1/1) checking for file conflicts [---------------------------------------] 100%
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
irqbalance: /usr/lib/systemd/system/irqbalance.service exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

After a pacman -Qo /usr/lib/systemd/system/irqbalance.service it shows up systemd-arch-utils owns the package.
Now, if I uninstall systemd-arch-units, upgrade irqbalance and then try to reinstall this package, I will have the same error message as above.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
systemd-arch-units: 20120704-2
irqbalance: 1.0.3.20110809-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Install either one of the above packages, then try to install the other one.
This task depends upon

community takes longer to sync

Thanks Daniel.
A week or so ago I had the same issue with dhcpcd and that was the very same thing Tom G. said when I wrote to the mailing list; however that time it took only few hours to get this package synced.
As today I still have the issue with up-to-date community repos - updated with reflector; if this is only a matter of time, I report back when this is solved so we can close this task.
Regards,
Martin

this is my bad, when I was told community was syncing, i assumed that meant systemd-arch-units was also moved with irqbalance, which is apparently not the case
