Description

Pacman transaction work can use a modified pactrans tool that includes overwrite support. It is useful for package maintenance workflows where file conflicts must be handled explicitly during a transaction.

Overwrite options can replace files owned by packages and should not be used casually. Maintainers should understand the conflict and verify package ownership before applying it.

How to run

pactrans

Commands: pactrans
