Just because this took me a whileto figure out what was going on, here 
is some actual output...


 > pacman -S gimp --ignore libwmf
resolving dependencies...
warning: ignoring package libwmf-0.2.8.4-8
warning: cannot resolve "libwmf", a dependency of "gimp"
:: The following packages cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable 
dependencies:
       gimp
