Historically, we have had to ignore package updates for a few reasons:
Conflicts between Arch Linux and SteamOS.
DKMS modules for Mac support breaking with kernel upgrades.
This is something our upgrade script takes care of but we ignore the packages so end-users do not upgrade their kernels via Pacman instead of the winesapOS Upgrade script.
These are no longer concerns.
winesapOS 4.0.0 will be removing SteamOS support and will be sticking directly with Arch Linux (and Manjaro) packages.
winesapOS 3.4.0 replaced the DKMS Mac drivers with linux-t2 which has all of those built directly into the kernel instead making upgrades easier.
We can now safely remove the IgnorePkg line in the /etc/pacman.conf configuration file for future builds of winesapOS.
I do not want to add an upgrade for this as it can very easily break older systems (specifically winesapOS 3.0.0 and 3.0.1).
