Description:

When trying to install either vtk or python2-twisted, pacman refuses to install when the other is currently installed.
Listing the files with pkgfile reveals that both packages contain conflicting files in the directory:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/

Additional info:
* package version(s)
vtk 6.1.0-3
python2-twisted 14.0.2-1
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
$ pacman -S vtk
$ pacman -S python2-twisted
[...]
python2-twisted: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/words/xmpproutertap.py exists in filesystem
python2-twisted: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/words/xmpproutertap.pyc exists in filesystem
python2-twisted: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/words/xmpproutertap.pyo exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

There is a similar conflict with python2-zope-interface, conflicting files in:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/zope/interface/
