galaxy/arrow: Contains file /usr/lib/libplasma.so, which is provided by kdelibs.

Description:

This package contains /usr/lib/libplasma.so which seems to be a KDE specific file and is provided by aur/kdelibs.

If `galaxy/arrow` really needs a generic KDE4 library, then it should be provided by a generic KDE4 package, and not "smuggled" into `arrow`.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 10.0.1-4


Steps to reproduce:
  • Have `aur/kdelibs` installed.
  • pacman -S --asdeps galaxy/arrow: 
    Code: [Select]
    [...]
    arrow: /usr/lib/libplasma.so exists in filesystem (owned by kdelibs)
    [...]

Arrow's use of plasma is unrelated to KDE see [1].

So maybe the package arrow could have some corresponding conflicts statement added, but it would be the duty of aur/kdelibs to add conflicts=('arrow').
