I created a custom package repository to hold arch packages compiled locally. I compile a newer package from abs then I have on the current system and it is placed into my custom repos. I issue a pacman -Syu will pacman get the package from arch or will it install from my custom repository? Thanks

It will install from the repo with the newest version.

Not really... it will install the package from the repo which comes first in you pacman.conf.

Except when a package have the force flag set, in which case it would install irregardless of the repoorder, right?

In this case the arch repos and the custom repos contain the same version the latest in the arch repos and the compiled one latest from abs both with the same versions and same release level.

Wrong, as far as I remember: It will pull from the first repository that is in pacman.conf.

From pacman.conf where we documented this: The order of repositories in the configuration files matters; repositories listed first will take precedence over those listed later in the file when packages in two repositories have identical names, regardless of version number.
