I know this probably doesn't belong here (since I can't offer a patch), but you might know of a better solution than I. It's probably not even important enough to fix (unless the change can be copied to pacman3 also).
from the TODO: "- add HTTP support for .lastupdate files"
so this feature is available only for ftp, not for http or file
Indeed, but I've got a patch in the pipe (targeted at the pacman library code). I miss this feature quite much, so I think I'll commit it after a few more tests. By the way, there's a FR logged in our bugtracker (see http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/2583). So, the need to backport it to pacman 2.9.x should be discussed. To say it all, I'm quite inclined to. -- Aurelien
