That is terrible, that pacman does ldconfig always. A NOLDCONFIG flag would be nice (and easy to implement) somewhere in .PKGINFO. These solution would be compatible with older packeges (because ldconfig is still the default), however we can radically speed up for example -R in the case of packages where no ldconfig is needed. Bye, Nagy Gabor
I better solution would be to only run ldconfig when a lib directory is touched. Adding extra flags adds more complexity to something that's very easy to minimize in other ways. I have a solution for running ldconfig all the time that will/may remove it from the pacman proper, but that will be implemented later on.
