DetailsDescription:
After running `pacman -Su` this evening I got the "conflicting files error" on a couple of nodejs related man pages. --------------------------------------------------- (322/322) checking for file conflicts error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) nodejs: /usr/share/man/man5/package.json.5 exists in filesystem nodejs: /usr/share/man/man7/removing-npm.7 exists in filesystem nodejs: /usr/share/man/man7/semver.7 exists in filesystem Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded. --------------------------------------------------- Additional info: Simply removed files and ran update again to fix. Seems like this is an issue with the way this is packaged. I ran `pacman -Qo /path/to/file_name` against these files and they were not owned. System Info: Nothing all too special about my machine, running on Thinkpad x1. This install was initially installed via the Antergos installer, but have since removed all related packages and ran multiple updates without issue. Steps to reproduce: Running `pacman -Su` for an update |

If the files were not owned by another package, there's no bug here.
