> A 'force' is usually done for a reason, but I guess we can still let ignore skip the package safely.
AFAIR force was/is used only for forcing pacman to downgrade package. :-/ (correct me if I'm wrong)
But we can get rid of force feature and issues like "is 1.23b > or < than 1.23?" by comparing versions by build date (I don't remember if there's FR for this but it was mentioned on pacman-dev ML few times)
