I'm not sure it's a good idea to encourage this in the general case. Supporting it only as a command-line option is still useful since it can help resolve certain types of manual itervention. One alternative would be to create a dummy package providing it. That being said, I'm not necessarily saying this must be rejected... aside: for perl, see https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54887 > Дамјан Георгиевски (1): > AssumeInstalled option in the config file > > etc/pacman.conf.in | 1 + > src/pacman/conf.c | 2 ++ > 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+) > -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
