[SOLVED] appstream: conflict while upgrading

During the last upgrade I got a conflict with appstream. Not a great problem, I avoided to install it (IgnorePkg) and all work. This is the message during the installation:

$ sudo pacman -S appstream
:: appstream is in IgnorePkg/IgnoreGroup. Install anyway? [Y/n]

looking for conflicting packages...

Packages (1) appstream-0.14.5-1

Total Installed Size:  7,54 MiB
Net Upgrade Size:      0,40 MiB

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
appstream: /usr/lib/appstreamcli-compose exists in filesystem (owned by appstream-qt)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Surely will be solved in one of the next upgrade, just to report the error.
