I have had at least two or three use cases for this option, * one has been since I always have to type pacman -Syu --assume-installed noto-fonts when plasma-integration is updated * `pacman -Syu --assume-installed perl` since it's needlesly pulled by openssl and I didn't need it for containers and similar
Having this in the config file allows to use the option together with pacstrap too.
Please review and if the change is acceptable suggest what else needs to be added
I'm not sure it's a good idea to encourage this in the general case. Supporting it only as a command-line option is still useful since it can help resolve certain types of manual itervention. One alternative would be to create a dummy package providing it. That being said, I'm not necessarily saying this must be rejected... aside: for perl, see https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54887
