This is a problem in our current version of initscripts: If a package is
added in staging, but the PKGBUILD shows an older version, the package
and database data become inconsistent:
$ cat /var/lib/pacman/sync/extra/graphviz-2.16.1-3/desc
%FILENAME%
graphviz-2.18-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
%NAME%
graphviz
%VERSION%
2.16.1-3
%DESC%
Creates acircular graph images
%CSIZE%
1304315
%MD5SUM%
47e014aa4dc7f3976db49ede4621af97
%FORCE%
This causes problems during the upgrade. Please be more careful until
our dbscripts have more checks included and never forget to add the
PKGBUILD properly.
