Another small suggestion about the message, it doesn't detect packages
in unofficial repositories.
I had some packages conflicting and not detected because they are in
my personal repostory.
I used the following command to detect all packages (except filesystem).

comm -12 <(pacman -Qq|grep -v filesystem|sort) <(pacman -Qqo /bin
/sbin /usr/sbin|sort)

Why not symlink /usr/local/sbin to /usr/local/bin in filesystems?

Cheers,
