I just saw this:

pacman -Su | wc -l Proceed with installation? [Y/n] n 1148
That is a lot of copies of: error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/allanbrokeit.db: Failed to open '/var/lib/pacman/sync/allanbrokeit.db'
I want to say we could leverage my database is valid patches to make this suck less- the first time we check the db for validity (including actual existence) we would throw the error message but be silent from there on out (and/or abort if that is the prudent step to take). -Dan
