[aur-general] xorg-server and nvidia-utils-bumblebee are in conflict (nvidia-utils<=290.10)

[Xavier Ho]

Hello,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I've tried it, and I got:

loading packages...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: nvidia-bumblebee: requires nvidia-utils-bumblebee=290.10

So I thought, all right, I'll update nvidia-bumblebee.  However, the update
has:

depends=('linux' "nvidia-utils-bumblebee>=${pkgver}")

which fails the installation because my nvidia-utils-bumblebee is still at
290.xx.   I hacked the PKGBUILD to be able to install it:

depends=('linux' "nvidia-utils-bumblebee>=290.00")

Otherwise it would raise an inter-conflict and fail.  This isn't exactly
clean.

Cheers,
Xav
