Thanks. I've already fixed this though. Judd came up with a
(manual) workaround for this a few days ago. (See http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/3700)

Subject: Re: [arch] Weird pacman dependency issueI'm getting a really strange dependency issue. Pacman's telling me that it needs to remove hotplug (and by dependency, hwd), but it won't let me do it.
I've removed hwd successfully, but pacman seems to still think it's installed:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sudo pacman -S udev
:: udev conflicts with hotplug. Remove hotplug? [Y/n] y
Remove: hotplug
Targets: udev-079-1
Total Package Size: 0.2 MB
Proceed with upgrade? [Y/n] y
checking package integrity... done.
error: this will break the following dependencies:
hotplug: is required by hwd
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pacman -Q | grep hwd
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pacman -Q hwd
Package "hwd" was not found.
I got this error too, even after manually removing hotplug and hwd. I just ended up running a pacman -Sud and it worked fine.
