libftdi 1.0-1 in testing includes /usr/bin/eeprom which is already provided by i2c-tools in community, thus creating a conflict upon update:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
libftdi: /usr/bin/eeprom exists in filesystem

I don't know which one is the "good" version. I'll try to investigate the subject asap.

Steps to reproduce:
0. Downgrade to libftdi 0.20-2
1. Install i2c-tools
2. Update

find examples -type f -perm -755 -exec install {} "$pkgdir/usr/bin" \;

This is the culprit. Is there any particular reason compiled examples are installed ? Maybe they should be placed in their own directory, in source code form.
