Problably not, but this is better than nothing, I will add it. Sometimes when a package A conflicts with B and B is installed, you may have a C which obsoletes B (so it works). But a newer package B which will avoid the conflicts has not been used. I add this features, so synthesis file will be a little more larger (to support conflicts tags). Fran�ois.
