Another possible: - same filename between two package in "bin" vs "sbin". Example: $ pacman -Qo /usr/sbin/nfsiostat /usr/sbin/nfsiostat is owned by nfs-utils 1.2.7-1 $ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/nfsiostat /usr/bin/nfsiostat is owned by sysstat 10.1.5-1 -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1
