 -LIMITATIONS/BEHAVIOR CHANGES COMPARED TO PACMAN 2.9
 -===================================================
 -
 -Excepted missing features still needing to be implemented, one can
 -notice the following limitations:
 -
 -- When trying to add a package that conflicts with an already installed
 -one, pacman won't ask for removing the latter one prior to install the
 -former.
 -It will stop with an error code mentionning a conflict.
 -
 -The library can handle only one transaction at a time, and as a consequence,
 -it is not easily possible to remove a conflicting package while holding
 -still the on-going transaction...
 -
 -- If pacman is out of date, the frontend displays a warning and recommends
 -to give up the on-going transanction. The frontend does not allow to
 -upgrade pacman itself on-the-fly, and thus it should be restarted with
 -only "pacman" as a target.
