NoUpgrade is not needed since pacman 2.9.8. But packages should have all their config files added to backup array (if not - file a bugreport). We could just remove NoUpgrade lines from default pacman.conf in pacman3, but there is one little bug than occurs only once for each that was in removed from NoUpgrade list, this will be workarounded in next pacman releases. Dan, Aaron - correct me if I said something wrong here. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич) _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
