[arch-general] pacman tries to install nvidia drivers?

[John K Pate]

Hello all,

I don't have an nvidia graphics card:

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series
Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

Yet when I try to update (with -Syyu just to be sure), I get:

$ sudo pacman -Syyu

Why does pacman try to install nvidia-utils for me? I have intel-dri
installed and my graphics work fine. I assume the dependency cycle is
unrelated...

Thanks,
