[arch-general] Repo Structure - Pool Dir
Hello. Currently I see that there are some packages in /archlinux/extra/os/i686/ and some symlinks to ../../../pool/packages/. I was hoping a dev would be able to answer the following the questions? Eventually, will all packages (from core/extra/community) end up in pool? Repos like multilib, gnome-unstable, kde-unstable will not end up, right? Thanks, ~pyther

this is the new layout. all new packages are copied in pool directory to avoid synchronizing again the mirrors once they are moved from a repo to another. this way, when packages are moved, mirrors have to synchronize only the new symlinks location pool/packages contain packages for core/extra/testing/gnome-unstable/kde-unstable/staging and pool/community the other repos available -- Ionuț
