$ pacaur -S google-chrome
[...]
:: google-chrome-61.0.3163.100-1 is up to date -- reinstalling

AUR Packages  (1)  Old Version      New Version     

aur/google-chrome  61.0.3163.100-1 (red)  61.0.3163.100-1 (green)

:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n]

Should maybe both versions be green for clarity?

This could be a useful addition, though the internal logic must be rewritten to handle different colors per line. I'll have a look.

Could also be yellow, since the reinstall warning is of the same color.
