Hi all,
now with hooks newly introduced to pacman, are there already some useful btrfs and/or snapper hooks available? At least a quick look-around in the forums and with Google hasn't revealed anything yet.
What is the goal here?
To have snapshots before and after pacman did any changes to the filesystem (i.e. upgraded packages), so one can easily rollback to a known good state in case of an error, and/or look at the difference between two snapshots to figure out what might cause an issue.
You can find more information on snapper here [1]. There are appropriate hooks for aptitude and YaST, so I'm now looking into getting this functionality with Arch.
