I am not sure I like this... Currently, "pacman -S foo" will always show "foo" as the last target. I find that makes it clear that the rest of the packages are the needed dependencies.
With this patch, "foo" can end up anywhere in the package listing. For a package with lots of dependencies, it becomes difficult to see that "foo" is even being installed at a quick glance.
How about a slight tweak, as I just hated the old seemingly random order. We'll do pulled package alpha-ordered, followed by explict alpha-ordered. This still makes my main beef, the -Syu case, print how I want while solving your problem as well.
Agreed. That would be fine to me. Allan
