Is there some way of downloading upgradable packages without running the "looking for inter-conflicts" step? I have a locally modified broadcom-wl package[1], the modification is a dependency on the specific version of the kernel (in order to avoid the all too common situation where I updated the kernel and promptly lost connectivity). What I'd really like to do is download all upgradable packages, then remove connectivity in a controlled way, perform the upgrade from the local cache, re-boot, re-build the broadcom-wl package. I fail at this since 'pacman -Suw' won't download upgradable packages if there are "inter-conflicts" (in my case caused by my broadcom-wl package). Is there some way to get pacman to perform the download without "looking for inter-conflicts"? /M [1]: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19514 -- Magnus Therning                      OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org   jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe               http://therning.org/magnus
