[arch-general] AUR / Official Repo version problem

[Brendan Long]

So I've been having a strange problem on my computer with updates. The
xulrunner package in the official repos didn't want to update because
firefox-branded (from the AUR) depends on an old version, but
firefox-branded won't update because it needs a newer version of
xulrunner. I got it to work by removing firefox-branded, updating, then
installing it again, but it's a complicated solution and entirely not
obvious what's going wrong. The error message made it sound like there
was just no update for xulrunner available:

:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: firefox-branded: requires xulrunner=1.9.1.7

Not sure how this could be made easier, but I thought I'd mention how
confusing it is.
