Thanks!

But this begs the question, why are you doing this before running pacman?

??? I always shut down all running daemons when I'm about to update my system - seems like standard operating procedure to me: 1) I'd expect that it would be completely unpredictable what would happen if you updated/replaced an application's files while it was running, 2) there's often config file changes that occur; again, I don't want to try to update or resolve those while an application is running.
