Uh, I thought I couldn't reproduce this, because I was answering the default question (yes). Now I see, but I don't consider this to be a big problem. Why would you answer no to the question anyway? When you do, pacman will just fail.

Well, this is not a big problem -- just ugly. Why would I answer no? Because I don't like foo-dependency at all, that's why I put foo-dependency into IgnorePkg ;-) And I hope that pacman will find an other (provision) satisfier. So pacman won't fail by default (this was the goal of 55a7455135e2d8f2e118928f634dc7976ab6c8b4). As I see, I must commit a trivial patch for this...
