Re: [pacman-dev] [PATCH] Readd some symlink checking in file conflict code

if(!_alpm_lstat(str, &pkgbuf) && lsbuf.st_ino == pkgbuf.st_ino)... /* lsbuf represents the conflicting file, pkgbuf loops over the 'files' of local package */ Since there is no symlink here, _alpm_lstat is equivalent with stat (the code _assumed_ symlink here). Not the _alpm_lstat in this line is interesting here, but the alpm_lstat which filled lsbuf earlier.

So if you want to restore the old behaviour, this code-part can be replaced with an easy "find directory-name in localpkg's filelist" search (maybe tuned with realpath).

I am considering a "cheaper" solution now, only check the old version of package (not the whole target list). But that cannot s/But that cannot//
