Maybe another bug...
I installed fortune-mod-homer today:

[root at laptop ~]# pacman -S fortune-mod-homer
resolving dependencies... done.
looking for inter-conflicts... done.

Targets: recode-3.6-2  fortune-mod-1.99.1-3  fortune-mod-homer-20011112-1

After a while I deinstalled it again:

[root at laptop ~]# pacman -Rscn fortune-mod-homer
checking dependencies... done.

Targets: fortune-mod-homer  fortune-mod

Do you want to remove these packages? [Y/n]

As you can see not all packages are selected, and only one package is actually 
deinstalled.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I try to deinstall the package "recode":

[root at laptop ~]# pacman -Rscn recode
checking dependencies...

This will be printed infinite so I have to terminate pacman.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I reinstall fortune-mod-homer again:

[root at laptop ~]# pacman -Sf fortune-mod-homer
resolving dependencies... done.
looking for inter-conflicts... done.

Targets: fortune-mod-1.99.1-3  fortune-mod-homer-20011112-1

Total Package Size:   1.81 MB

Proceed with installation? [Y/n]
checking package integrity... done.
cleaning up... done.

(2/2) installing fortune-mod-homer                  
[###########################################################################################]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

... and then deinstall "recode":

[root at laptop ~]# pacman -Rscn recode
checking dependencies... done.

Targets: fortune-mod-homer  fortune-mod  recode

Do you want to remove these packages? [Y/n]

(1/3) removing fortune-mod-homer                    
[###########################################################################################]

(2/3) removing fortune-mod

(3/3) removing recode                               
[###########################################################################################] 
100%

Now everything is removed....

I guess this is no normal behaviour so I thought I post this here....
