This is a patch to make Pacman only ask for confirmation if anything different from what the user requested (i.e. dependencies) is going to be installed. Since the user took the time to type out "pacman -Sy foo", they obviously did want foo installed, and it really wouldn't make sense to ask them this again unless something else will be installed.

I like this. It's akin to the fact that pacman -R foo doesn't prompt you. (How crazy is that? Removing a package doesn't prompt you but installing a package does.) Scott
