+It doesn't say why it wants to install it:
+
+set_rejected: libreoffice-langpack-da-3.3.2.2-1.mga1.x86_64
+selecting lib64cairo-xcb2-1.10.2-4.mga1.x86_64
+set_rejected: lib64cairo-xcb2-1.10.2-3.mga1.x86_64
+installed package lib64cairo2-1.10.2-3.mga1.x86_64 is conflicting with 
+lib64cairo-xcb2-1.10.2-4.mga1.x86_64 (Conflicts: lib64cairo2)
+set_rejected: lib64cairo2-1.10.2-3.mga1.x86_64
+
+and if I run with --keep, the list of things that can't be installed 
+doesn't include anything that is blocked by not having cairo-xcb, it 
+just says that it can't install xcb:
+
+lib64cairo-xcb2-1.10.2-4.mga1.x86_64 (in order to keep 
+lib64cairo2-1.10.2-3.mga1.x86_64)

+???  Then shouldn't 13 replace 12 ?  Various of the new packages, e.g. 
+inkscape, require 13.
