 xbps-0.50 (???):
 
+ * libxbps: another bugfix for conflicts; do not take into account conflicts
+   in installed pkgs when the same pkg is in the transaction.
+
  * xbps-alternatives(1): symlinks are now always created relative to the
    rootdir of the target file. Implemented by Enno Boland (@Gottox).
