Ok then, I guess we more or less keep the same behavior.
We just need to make a better distinction between 2 and 3, which is
why I changed the _alpm_pkg_compare_versions function.

Here is a new patch (inlined for comments, attached to be sure that it
will apply cleanly)

Subject: [PATCH] Cleanup of _alpm_pkg_compare_versions.

* Change the return values to be more informative.

It was previously boolean, only indicating if one package was newer than the
other or not.

Now it is a simple wrapper to vercmp, handling the force flag.

* Remove the verbose output. This belongs somewhere else.

* Don't display the "up to date -- skipping" and "up to date -- reinstalling"
messages, when the local version is newer than the sync one.

* Fix the behavior of --needed option to not skip a target when the local
version is newer, and clarify its description.

* Add a new alpm_pkg_has_force function

This allows us to access the pkg->force field like any other package fields.
