Description:

When trying to download python-beautifulsoup with pacman (note: the package in itself does not exist), it will for some reason try to download python2-beautifulsoup3 instead. This is confusing, and it should be an error, or at least try to download the python-beautifulsoup4 package (which is the only working version of beautifulsoup for python, and not python2).



Steps to reproduce:

# pacman -S python-beautifulsoup

looking for inter-conflicts...

Targets (1): python2-beautifulsoup3-3.2.1-1

Total Installed Size: 0,34 MiB

Proceed with installation? [Y/n] n

If you want python-beautifulsoup for python3 (and not python2), you have to install with:

pacman -Sy python-beautifulsoup4

Cabibre package needs python2-beautifulsoup3 (python2).
