Believe it.

  Here, the issue isn't "can't you check", the issue is "why did scribus attempt
to satisfy a dependency with gimp-light?" That is why I posted the question. I
had never seen pacman attempt to satisfy and dependency with a non-existent or
aur package before. But it did. The lack of a gimp-light caused pacman to fail
to upgrade anything. Thus, the post. The questions wasn't "why isn't gimp-light
in the repos?" or "Is AUR the only place for gimp-light?", the question was
"why/how is scribus looking for it in the first place?"
