Two comments: 1) Please use "all" rather than "any" when referring to all architectures. "any" already has a defined use. 2) Does this involve stopping the use of repo-add? I know of at least two projects that aim at replacing it, although none have been proposed on pacman-dev yet. I think it is important for something like repo-add to be tied to pacman, but we could add an option to update an extracted directory (e.g. git repo) rather than a tarball if that would be useful. (Aside: please consider a separate repo for debug packages. The [extra] and [community] databases are already large enough.) Allan
