Hi!
This is not a big issue, but memleaks are just ugly. I mentioned this in the 2. point of my http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7884#comment25485 comment. See pacman/query.c/query_upgrades(): The result of alpm_sync_sysupgrade just printed but not freed (as I see, the front-end couldn't do it anyway)
Well I hope you have more free time soon to help :) That's definitively something I would like to see improved, but there are just way too many things.. About memleaks: There are many memleaks in the frontend after the dynamic mem move, where the frontend can't even free things. But there are mostly just small ones which only happen in corner cases like errors. But it is worse when it happens on normal and successful operations though... Also Dan said he did not want to make all the free functions public, which would be ugly. So it has to be done another way.
