3) I was testing a -R option that only removed package, not group. But doing pacman -R xterm with it caused : Erreur: could not remove entry 'xterm' from cache
That's because the cache was only loaded by alpm_db_readgrp, which isn't used anymore by this -R option, since it doesn't deal with group. But remove_commit still tries to remove the package from the cache in any cases, with _alpm_db_remove_pkgfromcache. This reminds me of another issue I noticed with the cache a while ago, that I didn't know how to fix either : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-July/008693.html
Yes, we should check where we want to load/reload pkgcache to avoid these. Bye, ngaba PS: I don't like group cache ---------------------------------------------------- SZTE Egyetemi Könyvtár - http://www.bibl.u-szeged.hu This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/
