Issue when a dependency is being replaced

[nsmathew]

I had this issue where one of the packages from the AUR had a makedependecy which was marked as to be replaced by another package from the official repos. packer was not able to resolve this and the installation failed. Was able to install it fine manually using makepkg -s.

Link to the issue raised in the arch forums which has the package details. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174837
