Problem upgrading gnupg2 2.0.10-1, and new weird "/usr/share/info/dir"

# pacman -Su

error: could not prepare transaction
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
gnupg2: /usr/share/info/dir exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
---------------------------------------------------------------
So i renamed /usr/share/info/dir to /usr/share/info/dir.ori.txt

Then it was able to upgrade.
I looked at the new /usr/share/info/dir, and it is in german and it's way smaller.

The question is should i use the original, and include the new data from the new one???

Dies ist die Datei .../info/dir, die den obersten Knoten der
Info-Hierarchie enthält, genannt (dir)Top.
Beim ersten Aufruf von Info geht es bei diesem Knoten los.

File: dir,    Node: Top    Dies ist der Beginn des INFO-Baums

  Dieser Verzeichnis-Knoten zeigt ein Menü aller Hauptpunkte an.
  „q" beendet Info, „?" listet alle Info-Befehle auf, „d" kehrt hierher
  zurück, „h" gibt eine Einsteiger-Hilfe, „mEmacs<Return>" besucht das
  Emacs-Manual, etc.

  Im Emacs kann man mit dem zweiten Mausknopf auf einen Menüeintrag oder
  einen Querverweis klicken, um einen solchen auswählen.

* Menu:

GNU Utilities
* gpg2: (gnupg).                OpenPGP encryption and signing tool.
* gpgsm: (gnupg).               S/MIME encryption and signing tool.

original /usr/share/info/dir http://pastebin.com/f460c2774
didn't fit in this page as code.

you should keep the old /usr/share/info/dir file. The new data should be written into that file using a post install script. This should be fixed in gnupg2 2.0.10-2

I filed a bug report on this.  It has been fixed in the -2 release.

THKS 4 fast reply, and bug report

I pasted the new relevant data into the original "/usr/share/info/dir"

GNU Utilities
* gpg2: (gnupg).                OpenPGP encryption and signing tool.
* gpgsm: (gnupg).               S/MIME encryption and signing tool.
