Better dependency conflict error message for pacaur -Syu --aur

[Nowaker]

Version

pacaur 4.7.6

Description

pacaur -Syu --aur

nowaker@nwkr-laptop ~ % pacaur -Syu --aur
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date

:: Starting AUR upgrade...
:: baloo4-akonadi is not present in AUR -- skipping
(...)
:: virtuoso-base is not present in AUR -- skipping
:: resolving dependencies...
:: unresolvable package conflicts detected
:: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies: gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins)

This error message should provide more information, e.g. which package conflicts against gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins.

After I called pacaur -S gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins, the problem no longer appeared.

nowaker@nwkr-laptop ~ % pacaur -Syu --aur
(...)
:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n]

Debug output

I don't have the debug output. pacaur -S gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins fixed the problem and I could no longer reproduce the problem.

Thanks for the report. This is related to #173. This error message done without much explanation happens only when two targets directly conflict with each other (ie, two packages that are listed in the -Qum output - this does not include their dependencies). This specific user case is not straightforward to fix, but I'll see what I can do.

In case you encounter a similar issue again, please add a debug output here.
