From the man page:
--ignore <package>
Directs pacman to ignore upgrades of package even if there is one
available. Multiple packages can be specified by separating them
with a comma.

So, --ignore is documented to only works with package upgrade operations.

And a command: "pacman -Sw aurvote --ignore aurvote" would be strange...

for this specifica case I want download all my packages to the pacman cache (Migrating to another filesystem with same machione and without stable/descent internet access) and in the --ignore I put all my local intaled packages (like aurvote in this example) but --ignore refuse to ignore packages installed localy (via makepkg (in this specific case) or AUR helper)

I tend to think this is solved by Simon's patch for the --native flag.

it is "solved" but there are still a lot of issues wih --ignore and when it actually works. I would like to keep this open as a reminder.

the patch going to 4.1 pacman (or is already merged on pacman git?) or to 4.0.4???

I want test the patch here

pacman -Sw $(pacman -Qld core) --ignore linux-lts,linux-lts-headers
in this case the ignore is ignored by -Sw
this is intentional or I needed to fil a bug??

Did you read the closed reason - there is a big open...

But as said above "--ignore is documented to only works with package upgrade operations"
