Just recently did:

sudo pacmatic -Syuv

and got:

:: Synchronizing package databases...

So, I chose NO,  then per the wiki I updated the mirrorlist, and once the
mirrorlist wsa updated, I did:

sudo pacmatic -Syyuv

and got:

 there is nothing to do

Huh?  why:

warning: gdm: local (3.16.1.1-1) is newer than extra (3.16.1-3)
warning: libgdm: local (3.16.1.1-1) is newer than extra (3.16.1-3)

I again did:
sudo pacmatic -Syyuv

and got the same exact result.

Note that at the time this is posted, archlinux.org does not seem to show
gdm 3.16.1-3 or libgdm 3.16.1-3,
just gdm 3.16.1.1-1 and libgdm 3.16.1.1-1

So, what to do?
