Hi !

On Today's upgrade:

% pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
...
Packages (9) ... tigervnc-1.11.0-1 ...
...
 tigervnc-1.11.0-1-x86_64           131.3 MiB  3.51 MiB/s 00:37 [########################################################] 100%

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
tigervnc: /usr/sbin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Usually that get fixed by using "--overwrite /usr/sbin".  But I find it wrong for tigervnc to own "/usr/sbin", so I think in this case tigervnc is not right.  Would this be the case, or it's OK for tigervnc to be the owner and then to overwrite?

Thanks !
