Thank you, Andrew! I wish I had know about that earlier! Thanks also to Xyne for asking exactly the right question. This will very likely end of this thread here, which I have no objection to. I've said what I needed to about how -Qk and -Qkk don't quite meet the needs of one looking for the list of discrepancies between pacman's db and the filesystem. I would still very much like to hear Dave's and Allan's and anyone else's thoughts on the extent of the responsibilities pacman bears for managed directories. But I have a path forward that circumvents the need for any unsettling changes to the pacman code base, so I am satisfied. Actually, it seems Andrew has already coded it up, so I am happy. Jeremy
