Re: [pacman-dev] [PATCH] Adds a check to -Qo, so that pacman warns the user if the file does not exits

That's true, thanks. I sent this patch because I mistyped a path in -Qo and it only printed "file %mistyped_path is not owned by any package", without warning me that the file did not exist. So if this check is put somewhere after the file database query, it will warn about mistyped paths to nonexistent files, right?

Yes, that seems reasonable. Can you submit an updated patch? While you are at it, commit messages are usually in the imperative mood, e.g. "add a check [...]" rather than "adds a check".
