After this upgrade:

[2013-10-24 23:17] [PACMAN] upgraded dialog (1.2_20131001-1 -> 1:1.2_20130928-1)

I get:

paccache -d -k1 -vv

/home/berbae/tmp/cache/dialog-1:1.2_20130928-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

==> finished dry run: 1 candidates (diskspace saved: 189.11 KiB)

paccache wants to delete the new package file with the epoq added, instead the one without the epoq.

$ printf '%s\n' /mnt/Haven/packages/dialog-*.pkg.tar.xz | pacsort --files

This is why paccache misbehaves.
