http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2008-January/016696.html Should we consider /etc/issue not being in backup array as a bug? Or this file should be added to NoUpgrade by user?
I see no reason why this should be backed up. There is nothing there for the user to modify in a normal situation, and I guess 99% of users would want it overwritten. Seems like a good NoUpgrade candidate to me.
As it is in /etc, it is a configuration file. As 99% of the users don't change it, 99% of those users won't see a .pacnew file whenever we change the file. For the 1% of the users that changes the configuration file, this file should be in backup.
Jan's is correct here, BUT /etc/issue has never been in the backup array as far as I can tell, so it is not a regression. Let's do the following: Sign off on this one so we can get it out the door and fix the REAL issues. New ISOs are coming soon, so we will need to bump this package anyway. We can add that then
Signoff both packages, i686. -Dan
