Hello,

in extra and community repository I found two duplicate packages:

[root@p4 ~]# pacman -Ss pyxml
extra/pyxml 0.8.4-2
Python XML parsing library.
community/pyxml 0.8.4-1
xml library for python
[root@p4 ~]# pacman -Ss orca
extra/orca 1.0.0-1
A scriptable screen reader and magnifier
community/orca 0.2.8-1
A scriptable screen reader and magnifier
[root@p4 ~]#


community versions should be removed
Thank you
Claudio

I checked it quickly for current, extra, unstable and community using following command:
pacman -Sl | cut -d ' ' -f 2|sort|uniq -d

The output gave the following packages (I added the repos again):
atitvout [extra, community]
brltty [extra, community]
icon-naming-utils [current, extra]
libnl [extra, community]
nant [extra, community]
orca [extra, community]
powersave [extra, unstable]
python-pyspi [extra, community]
pyxml [extra, community]

All but orca do not differ in version number or only very little in the different repositories. I think that in any case the names should differ or one of the packages should be removed, so I agree with Claudio's report.

This is different issue, but some packages are in two groups at the same time (i.e. two packages from gnome and gnome-extras groups, don't remember their names now).
