So pacman only prints a little warning in the --debug output when it detects a loop while sorting the packages, but that's all. Something like "dependency cycle detected" I don't know if this message should always be printed, on standard pacman output. There could maybe be a pacman option or an external tool for detecting dependencies cycles.

[pacman-dev] libalpm data structures
by Nagy Gabor 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

Hi! This is discussion-only (==no-patch) e-mail, mainly about code clean-up, so if you don't like that type of e-mails, please skip this. Xavier's compute_requiredby catch was the motivation of this e-mail: I never liked the following method: pmdepend_t *dep = alpm_splitdep(depend) /* char -> pmdepend_t conversion */ ...alpm_depcmp(pkg, dep)... FREE(dep) /* usually forgotten */ So I asked myself: Do we really need pmdepend_t struct? Why don't we use it in alpm_depcmp only ("internally")? So the depend-input of alpm_depcmp could be char* (and pmdepend_t should be disappear from libalpm API). Then I read the .h files of libalpm. My impressions: 1. We don't need pmdepend_t => pmdepmod_t. See above. This is mainly used in pmdepmissing_t which is used to collect missing dependencies (pmdepmissing_t is not needed here neither), and to print error/log messages (usually pmdepend_t -> char conversion is done here, too); where we could also use char. 2. We have pmconflict_t. Nice. So we don't need pmdeptype_t (in pmdepmissing_t). As we discussed with Xavier, pmconflict_t should be a symmetric structure: {target,ctarget} set [<=> alpm_strcmp ordered (target, ctarget) pair] instead of (target,ctarget) ordered pair) <- this is a pmconflict_t-helper-function problem only. Future plans: 3. I still want to kill pmsyncpkg_t => pmsynctype_t (the ugliest data struct of libalpm) 4. If my preferred universal transaction becomes true, we won't need pmtranstype_t. And of course, if we rip off some unneeded structures, we also rip off tons of unneeded associated helper functions. Personally, I want to make a patch for 1. and 2. So if you don't like the idea, let me know. However, I'm a bit unsure in 2.: should I keep target and ctarget as char, or I should use pmpkg_t* instead <- faster but more "dangerous".
