CleanMethod Bug

Hello, i would like the developers to look into the current behaviour of the CleanMethod option of pacman.conf.

The issue at hand is that i have some packages added to IgnorePkg, and pacman -Sc cleans the currently installed version of the packages from the pacman cache, if there is an update available in the repository.

For e.g.

I have vlc 1.1.5-2 installed currently and have added vlc to IgnorePkg. The latest version of vlc is 1.1.6-1.
pacman -Sc cleaned vlc-1.1.5-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz, and so i have no installer package available if i need to re-install vlc.
