[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Handle .part files that are the size of the correct package
In rare cases, likely due to a well timed Ctrl+C, but possibly due to a broken mirror, a ".part" file may have size at least that of the correct package size. When encountering this issue, currently pacman fails in different ways depending on where the package falls in the list to download. If last, "wrong or NULL argument passed" error is reported, or a "invalid or corrupt package" issue if not. Capture these .part files, and remove the extension. This lets pacman either use the package if valid, or offer to remove it if it fails checksum or signature verification.

ACK. This does cause one minor oddity: if the .part is the only package being installed, pacman prints "::Retrieving packages..." but then doesn't actually download anything.
