update problem [solved]

will post output in portuguese and explain afterwards

Alvos (1): lv2core-4.0-2

Tamanho Total do Download:   0,00 MB
Tamanho Total da Instalação:   0,15 MB

Prosseguir com a instalação? [S/n] s
(1/1) verificando integridade do pacote                             [#####################################] 100%
(1/1) verificando conflitos de arquivo                              [#####################################] 100%
erro: falha ao submeter a transação (arquivos conflitantes)
lv2core: /usr/include/lv2/lv2plug.in/ns/lv2core existe no sistema de arquivos
Ocorreram erros, nenhum pacote foi atualizado.

in short, pacman wont upgrade lv2core-4.0-2 because 'lv2core: /usr/include/lv2/lv2plug.in/ns/lv2core' exists allready
i can't uninstall it to reinstal afterwards because there a many packages depending on it

what can I do?

No need to uninstall anything for now. Just rename "/usr/include/lv2/lv2plug.in/ns/lv2core" to e.g. "lv2core.old" and try again. The update will then most likely proceed.
If everything works you may afterwards delete "lv2core.old".

You can run 'LC_MESSAGES=C pacman -Syu' to get the messages printed in English.
