Using Xorg 6.9 built with ABS, i cant pacman -Su anymore...

i need xorg 6.9 becouse only it supports my X850 radeon chip,
i found a PKGBUILD and a package here: http://forums.archlinuxfr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=4348
i installed with pacman -U, it works fine.

when i try to upgrade i get the following:

[root@localhost etc]# pacman -Su
:: xorg: local (11R6.9.0-6) appears to be newer than repo (current/11R6.8.2-6)
:: Above packages will be skipped.  To manually upgrade use 'pacman -S <pkg>'

what can i do to have updates from the repos again?

I think you may have misunderstood the message, n0gabor. You are using the current repo, which provides xorg 6.8.2, but your local version, 6.9.0, is newer. This does not have any affect on other applications - they will be upgraded as normal. You can do as jrepan says to apply all available upgrades, or you can do them individually by entering

pacman -Sy <app_name>
