This pactest shows that checkdeps can be fooled when a package exists in multiple repos.

Did we ever resolve the disparity with this pactest and sync134.py?

I think I agree that we should handle 1 replacer as our normal case. However, I think sync134 was meant to test something different, although it may be invalid. Was it intended to test a package being split into two? If so, more than likely one of them would depend on the other and they would both get pulled anyway, so I am not sure we need to keep it around.

Let me know, and then we can work on getting this merged.

lol, it's rather funny what happened. Nagy submitted two totally different sync1007 pactests the same month. (he already noticed it a while ago, after it happened). The one you are referring to (which isn't the one you quoted) is the multiple replacer one, first submitted here : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-January/010819.html then a patch for fixing it (which took care of sync134 too) : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-January/010877.html and the last comment about it : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-February/011289.html So as I said, I find the current behavior alright. But I don't think the patch is wrong either, so I won't oppose to merging it :) Now, about the second sync1007 pactest above, I don't think it has been discussed anywhere. It might be worth merging too.
