 Hey guys, do *NOT* try these out quite yet. Removing packages from a db

Bah, how often do we remove packages anyway. It's still fine for
upgrades - the "do *NOT*" warning is jumping the gun.
I will fix this when I get a chance.

Everytime we remove something from testing to move it to core/extra. Due to the signoff rule, that happens a lot.

 /usr/bin/communitypkg is merely a symlink to /usr/bin/extrapkg, and
 extrapkg has the svn commit lines instead of the CVS lines needed for
 community.  I'm not sure if this is "bug worthy", but I opened a bug
 in community packages so TU's have a reference:

 http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10118

 To all TU's, either downgrade or don't upgrade devtools until this can
 be fixed.  I mean, you could always use "cvs commit".

Good catch. I didn't even pick up on that one. Now the kicker - how
quickly can I/we get the community daemon converted vs putting out a
new devtools package? Which way should we go?

Instead of a symlink, use the old (CVS-)extrapkg as communitypkg. That will effectively fix communitypkg, so you can take your time to convert community. As I understand you, no work has been done on that yet.
