And you end up with .so files not tracked by Pacman in your filesystem? Imagine what will happen to a 2 year-old installation... As you said, maintenance is something that should be planned. So if you really need to be sure that your machine will still work after an upgrade, either try it in a clone VM first (I used to do that with my server) or be ready to use the Pacman cache / Arch Rollback Machine to reinstall the old version of the package that broke everything. -- catwell
