cdrtools update trying to overwrite unrelated man pages?

Hi, just trying to update cdrtools (community/cdrtools 3.01a29-1 -> 3.01a30-1), but it fails with this conflict:

    error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/error.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/fexecve.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/fnmatch.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/fprintf.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/getline.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/printf.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/sprintf.3.gz exists in filesystem
    cdrtools: /usr/share/man/man3/strlen.3.gz exists in filesystem
    Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

These help files look pretty generic, and strange that cdrtools would supply them. Checking out who owns these files, I get:

    $pacman -Qo /usr/share/man/man3/fprintf.3.gz
    /usr/share/man/man3/fprintf.3.gz is owned by man-pages 4.00-1

So this is really the issue of the new cdrtools release, right?
