conflict with ffmpeg ffmpeg2.8 and x265

Looks like it is trying to upgrade x265 (world) from 2.7-1 to 2.8-1, which provides libx265.so=160-64.  ffmpeg (world)

I was able to get through this by manually removing ffmpeg2.8 (AUR), then upgrading ffmpeg and x265 together, then a full pacman -Syu.  I'm now getting an unknown public key on the PGP signature for ffmpeg2.8, but I also can't remember why I even installed it, so I'll deal with that later.

It seems that this is just waiting for  the newer ffmpeg to migrate from extra to world, but a note someplace might be useful if many folks get caught by this until that happens.

ffmpeg 2.8:
same problem on Archlinux https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=237522
ffmpeg2.8 need (manuall) rebuild, because is only in AUR


ffmpeg:

:: ffmpeg: installing x265 (2.8-1) breaks dependency 'libx265.so=151-64'  <- this is problem of artix

Yes, after upgrading ffmpeg and x265, I reinstalled ffmpeg2.8 from AUR, and it went fine, although I had to do some searching to find the fix for the missing PGP key.

However, the arch posting was really only about AUR.  In this case ffmpeg and x265 both from world had the problem, even after removing ffmpeg2.8.  The new ffmpeg is in extra - so I think things are temporarily out of sync.
