Hi, In continuing to misjudge what would be an easy bug to fix I had an attempt at FS#8645 - Restore pacsaves on install [1]. The attached patch is a definite work in progress. I have two queries: 1) Would it be better to notify the user of the restore or to query them. Either way they will get a notification about the new file being installed to .pacsave. I'm leaning on query here because that would allow the user to stop really old files being restored. 2) Should I worry about the case where a file used to be backed up but is not now. This seems an edge case but would result in the file being restored then overwritten (I think.... I need to look at that further). Cheers, Allan [1] http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/8645
