Yes of course.
I perfectly know how to do to fix this problem *for me* as ~arch user for many 
years.


But what I want to point, is that currently, depdency tree seems to be broken 
for ~x86 : some packages in the ~x86 tree (iproute2 for example) ask for 
package not available in ~x86 (glibc).
Doesn't it sounds wrong to have such situation in the official tree ?


Anyway, thanks for your work :)
