Dear Arch Linux dev team,
I just want to say that I went through this update this morning. Having read the chatter on arch-dev-public, it was incredibly simple to find any AUR packages that might have snagged my update. I fixed them very quickly (I only had four), and everything was amazingly smooth.
So thank you for making this update nearly seamless. I think I speak for a majority of Arch Linux users when I say that your work is appreciated immensely. Though maybe you all don't hear enough about what an awesome job you do.
There was one package that kept me from updating right away. I have been meaning to play with glusterfs, so I had the package installed on my system. There is still a /usr/sbin/mount.glusterfs present in that package. But since I sitll haven't gotten around to trying it out, a simple removal of the package was all I needed to move that update right along.
Thanks again.
Regards,

I guess this is grub-0.97, which has not been in the Arch repos for a long, long time.... So, up to you to fix it.

i've got the same version of grub and solved this by moving everything from /sbin and /bin to /usr/bin. no problems encountered.

Yah - my eye missed that in output of (1). User error.
I removed grub - confirmed grub2 is installed - and am following wiki to make sure grub2 has what it needs. Hopefully all will be good. Its time to update to grub2 anyway :)

I note that /etc/grub.d/xxx all have #!/bin/bash
Did I miss something or should these be #!/usr/bin/bash now.

they should, but since the filesystem update symlinks /bin -> /usr/bin, things keep working.

Lstest instructions would have kept you from the /tmp/alpm_Pd1z7b/.INSTALL error: https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2013-June/025043.htm...
Fix your grub package.

OK I have also been looking at the instructions and I find:
$ paclist <repo> | awk ' { print $1 } ' | pacman -Ql - | grep '/s?bin/| /usr/sbin/' bash: syntax error near unexpected token `|'
Is there an error in the command?

No, no error, you should replace <repo> with the name of the repo you want to check.

Ahh - yes thank you - I am sorry I did not notice that myself.

It's just the new line, as you copy from email.
