File conflict while upgrading initscripts

Hi,

in order to update udev, which shows these errors (files already existing)

systemd-tools: /usr/share/man/man5/hostname.5.gz existiert im Dateisystem
systemd-tools: /usr/share/man/man5/locale.conf.5.gz existiert im Dateisystem
systemd-tools: /usr/share/man/man5/vconsole.conf.5.gz existiert im Dateisystem

I'm upgrading initscripts first, as mentioned in another posting relating to the same problem. But this gives those errors (files already existing)

hwids: /usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids existiert im Dateisystem
hwids: /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids existiert im Dateisystem

Upgrading hwids alone still creates the same error. So what to do?

Endut! Hoch Hech!

Re: File conflict while upgrading initscripts

Seems the proper thing to do would be to upgrade everything at once with pacman -Syu

Re: File conflict while upgrading initscripts

alternatively, install usbutils and pciutils at the same time as systemd-tools and hwids. throw initscripts in there, too.
