Description
Not sure if this is happening due to pacman or due to PKGBUILD flags, but I have on several occasions run into dependent packages that will not install because /usr/info/dir already exists. For the moment, I've been forcing pacman to ignore these conflicts (pacman -Uf [pkg_file]), but this may just defer the problem for later.
Example of conflict:
[root@LinHES_build linhes-scripts]#mpl s

There is a little bug with makepkg causing this to happen. Add !docs and !emptydirs to your makepkg.conf, or to the local pkgbuild.
The three pkg's mentioned specificly here have been fixed.
