	Now I'm completely confused. The updates 4 days ago (now in /var/log/pacman.log) said:

[2009-07-24 23:15] upgraded dmraid (1.0.0.rc15-7 -> 1.0.0.rc15-8)

	I now have dmraid 1.0.0.rc15-8 installed. Checking my arrays in device mapper I see:

14:23 archangel:~> ls -1 /dev/mapper
control
nvidia_ecaejfdi
nvidia_ecaejfdip10
nvidia_ecaejfdip5
nvidia_ecaejfdip6
nvidia_ecaejfdip7
nvidia_ecaejfdip8
nvidia_ecaejfdip9
nvidia_fdaacfde
nvidia_fdaacfdep5
nvidia_fdaacfdep6
nvidia_fdaacfdep7
nvidia_fdaacfdep8
---------------^-

	The 'p's are all still there? So what is the warning telling me? Why do I get this "downgrade" warning "upgrading" dmraid (1.0.0.rc15-7 -> 1.0.0.rc15-8)?
