Is this a known pacman bug (or a feature)? I tried to upgrade python-fuse and it errored out. /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/fuse_python-0.2-py2.6.egg-info is a directory in the old package, but a file in the new package. # pacman -S python-fuse resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts...
