[arch-general] Pacman: Installing a group that has the same name as a package?
I just ran into this funny little problem :) There is a package named "systemd", there is also a group named "systemd". How do I install the group with pacman? It keeps on offering me the package only: ~~~~ $ sudo pacman -Sg systemd systemd initscripts-systemd systemd systemd systemd systemd-arch-units $ sudo pacman -S systemd resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... Targets (1): systemd-37-2 Total Download Size: 0.79 MB Total Installed Size: 5.11 MB Proceed with installation?

Thanks, and now that I have there still is no answer except to install all the packages of the group explicitly (which can be aided by bash). I resorted to a feature request: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27660 /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
