Imho your noyes default behavior is better... Moreover, maybe we should also print somehow the conflict itself in warning, because 'udev conflicts with initscripts<2009.07' (btw, why is there 2 conflicts line udev's PPKGBUILD?) is much different from "foo conflicts with bar"... However, in most cases that would be redundant information, so I am unsure. (In fact we print redundant information in case of unresolvable dependencies, too)
I can see adding this information would be a good idea. I will see if I can do that too (it has been a long time since I touched actual pacman code).
Nagy and I already discussed this a bit yesterday, and he said he would write a patch :) But having new eyes on the code can not be a bad thing!
