how to make "yaourt -Syu --aur" prefer AUR over repros?
when I upgrade with "yaourt -Syu --aur" packages installed from repros which got newer versions in AUR won't get updated. Is there any way to change this behaviour?

AUR package names should not collide with the repo packages. Get the AUR maintainer to change the package name.

AUR package names should not collide with the repo packages. Get the AUR maintainer to change the package name.
It may be an issue with 'provides'.
Edit: OP might not be talking about the official repos either.
@capoeira
Can you give us some examples of such packages?

oh yes, I'm talking of unofficial repros. those are all audio related.
one example: jconvolver. if I have obsoleteaudio-repro enabled, "yaourt -Syu --aur" wont upgrade to the newer AUR package
same for archlinuxfr/linux-rt - even if linux-rt installed from AUR and the AUR package gets updated "yaourt -Syu --aur" wont show it.
