You are right, I missed that. I have no idea how to fix the testing host with extra chroot problem. Is there a way to detect when running pacman-db-upgrade is needed?

Stupid me. I should have looked at the upgrade script before; it's quite simple. I guess we could allways run that.
I guess to solve the first problem we would also need a pacman-db-downgrade script.
pacman-db-downgrade would be basically impossible... you could symlink the desc file to depends in every local package database directory.
If I'd add those link pacman 3.4 would be able to read the db, right? But once we update to 3.5 the upgrade script will ad all entries again. Maybe I'll need to modify the upgrade script to remove the desc files if they are just links. Btw: Do you guys plan the same for the db files?
