I agree with Aaron here about the transaction object stuff. We shouldn't need that just to get a list of upgrades.
I personally think -Su and -Qu (and their libalpm counterparts) should return the same list of packages to be installed, whether or not they are upgrades or pulled in deps. What is the disadvantage to this? -Qu was meant to be an alternative to canceling an -Su just because you wanted to see what needs upgrading.
sorry for the dumb question but how do you deal with replacements?
it would be ugly to have an interactive -Qu but without asking, you can't give a reasonable package list, hm.
Yeah - this is the only problem we have - currently -Qu assumes all ummm Yes answers, I believe. But that's still wrong. Any opinions here?
