The most anticipated release EVER has landed in [testing]. Do I expect it to make it out before we need a 4.0.1? Not really. :)
Upstream NEWS/changes: http://projects.archlinux.org/pacman.git/tree/NEWS?h=maint Disregard the 4.0.1 stuff that isn't in this package yet and hasn't been actually released.
Questions? Concerns? Comments? I'm telling you as little as possible about this release and how to make things work to put more people in the "standard user who doesn't follow development like a hawk" shoes.
This thread is for the *package in testing only*. We have more work to do from a distro policy standpoint on signing; please do not discuss that here but in another thread.

I just noticed a somehow unexpected behavior: When I run "pacman -S devtools" (still had namcap version 3.1) pacman wanted to install these pacakges: namcap-3.1-1 pacman-3.5.4-4 pyalpm-0.4.3-1 subversion-1.6.17-6 devtools-0.9.27-1 The thing to notice here is that it didn't warn that pylibalpm requires pacman 3.5 and that pacman did silently downgrade itself without any further notice. So in addition to the unexpected downgrade itselfthe SyncFirst option has no effect in this case? -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
