Ralf, that's not really a helpful suggestion.

However, if you activate the [community-testing] repository, pacman will
properly install all dependencies of a package and be able to keep track
of it in a reasonable way.
Some of the new additions have dependencies (also in
[community-testing]).

So please, refrain from doing it the way Ralf described.
