Details

When you remove a package that is an optdepend, the warning about it being an optdepend is reversed in french translation.

#pacman -Rcss portaudio ocaml
vérification des dépendances...
:: vlc est suggéré par portaudio: for portaudio support

Which is translated to "vlc is suggested by portaudio: for portaudio support" but this is the contrary...
Whereas when using pacman with C locale it gets it right:
:: vlc optionally requires portaudio: for portaudio support

It should be:
"portaudio est suggéré par vlc: for portaudio support"
or "vlc suggère le paquet portaudio: for portaudio support"
(first form is nicer IMO, package names were just switched)
This task depends upon

Looks like there has been a change in the translation. Is this better?

Source string
%s optionally requires %s

Translation
%s peut nécessiter %s

This is better, the dependancy is now in the right direction.
TBH I don't really like the way it's formulated though, it implicitely tells we are not so sure about the depends of the package...
The reverse translation is now more "%s may need %s". But I couldn't come up with something better so I guess it is resolved.
