How do you deal with cycling dependencies ? I have an issue with mangohud here, which prevents any update.

aura :: Proceed? [Y/n] 
aura :: There was a cyclic dependency involving: mangohud

For the record: mangohud seems to need mangoapp as an optional dependency, which hard requires mangohud.

Is there an option to at least ignore that package so it updates anything that doesn't touch this cycle?

@gagbo It looks like mangohud is actually a split package containing both mangohud and mangoapp in the same build process. Usually these are fine for Aura, but something weird seems to be happening in this case, so for now I'd recommend hand-building it via makepkg.

You can use aura -Aw to clone the package beforehand:

aura -Aw mangohud
cd mangohud
makepkg

This doesn't seem to occur anymore.
