Hi all, We need an announcement that we expected to have everyone updated to pacman-5.0 soon so that we can switch many things to using hooks. There are at minimum three things I want to see using hooks in the near future: 1) info install 2) desktop cache updates 3) font cache updates ... Each of these will require a rebuild to remove the install script handling this. If users are not updated to pacman-5.0 before this rebuild, there will be no install script run and no hooks run. Thus I want to make the following announcement: --DRAFT-- Required update to pacman-5.0.1 before 2016-04-17 The release of pacman-5.0 bought support for transactional hooks. These will allow us to (e.g.) run font cache updates a single time during an update rather than after each font package. This will both speed up the update process, but also reduce packaging burden for the Developers and Trusted Users. In order for the use of hooks to be started, we require all users to have updated to at least pacman-5.0.1 before 2016-04-23. Pacman-5.0.1 was released on 2016-02-23, so this will have given everyone two months to update their system. --END DRAFT-- Comments? Allan
