Re: [resolved]pkg version rules
It's happening because the 'force' switch is enabled in the PKGBUILD. The developers needed to revert back to .29 from .35 because of a serious upstream bug. The simplest way to deal with this is to add nvidia and nvidia-utils to the IgnorePkg line in /etc/pacman.conf.

Flag pkg out-of-date and wait. If you can't wait, use ABS to update it yourself.
