Also change '-?' no longer to be an error, because if we're going to check for it anyway, why make it an error?
Hmm, why are we checking for it at all? I see no reason to treat it differently from any other unknown option, and I *just* removed the undocumented --usage variant from vercmp as I think [-h|--help] is more than enough for everyone and everything. Can we just remove '-?' altogether? We don't use it anywhere else, --help is pretty standard, and I feel like '-?' will just be confusing and possibly too Windows'y to boot. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User

Because '?' indicates an error.

I started fiddling around with pacman-conf today, because I wanted to add short options to it, and then just sort of...kept on for a bit.
Oh, I could be wrong, but I think that 'pacman-conf --repo <foo>' pretty much covers [FS#25568][1].
I agree, and I've closed it as implemented. :) -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
