[Solved] Cannot upgrade system, dependencies problem!

When I run

# pacman -Syu

I get

:: Starting full system upgrade...
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: catalyst-utils: requires xorg-server<1.9.0

However, X -version returns

X.Org X Server 1.8.1.902 (1.8.2 RC 2)

What do?

* You update your pacman.conf like this:
IgnorePkg = xorg-server xf86-video-vesa
IgnoreGroup = xorg-input-drivers

This worked, thanks to you and him.
