PHP and PHP-CGI won't co-exist

Hi,
I had PHP 5.1.1 and PHP-CGI 5.1.1 installed until today.  A full upgrade (to 5.1.2) failed because of a file conflict between the two. The following files are  supplied by both packages.

php-cgi: /usr/bin/peardev: exists in filesystem
php-cgi: /usr/bin/pecl: exists in filesystem

I uninstalled both. Tried to reinstall PHP-CGI and this happens

[root@noodle ~]# pacman -S php-cgi

Targets: php-5.1.2-1 php-cgi-5.1.2-1

Total Package Size:   9.0 MB

Proceed with upgrade? [Y/n]

checking package integrity... done.
loading package data... done.
checking for file conflicts...
error: the following file conflicts were found:
  usr/bin/peardev: exists in "php" (target) and "php-cgi" (target)
  usr/bin/pecl: exists in "php" (target) and "php-cgi" (target)


errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

So PHP-CGI needs PHP but can't live with it !!

Anyone else getting this problem?

Oh i see it - someone has already reported it, task id 3884.

I checked the forums first and didn't see any reports of the problem, hence the post.

I had this same problem, but today's pacman update must have fixed it, because it works just fine now. You guys sure move... Thanks for all the great work!
