Just do the install. Be happy, don't worry. This is only a practical and recurring issue during a beta phase when there are many releases. And with increasing use of pacman this is even less so than with previous betas. The install does not touch the user folder (no install since the user folder

I think that should be doable but pacman then needs a postinstall hook for jobs like download another package, fetch files from other website, or move files to other location from its default unzip folder. I guess gtk maintainers actually encourage programs to bundle with itself gtk binary on
