Normally, I would assume pacman -Sw would work just like pacman -S... which means you need to specify a package name... but according to your examples, there wasn't one specified

I tried to do

# pacman -Suw
worked, but it isn't obvious from the man page.

As I currently see it, -w is a SUB-option of -u. I believe this should be
somehow clearified (there might be more SUB-options there).

Maybe it should be a bit clarified what options can be used at the same time,
what options are actually suboptions... etc.
