Re: [pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/2] only use effective url for urls containing .db or .pkg

For a .db we explicitly need it to be the last component, so we might as well check that .db isn't a redirect to .db.tar.gz, which per IRC discussion lazka's server appears to do.

No that case is fine. This patch is for when the redirect is unrelated to the filename. So like: /foo.db -> /34783248324 /34783248324.sig would then fail. But in the case of /foo.db -> /foo.db.tar.gz /foo.db.tar.gz.sig is still valid and succeeds.
