[pacman-dev] [PATCH] checkupdates: Provide --nosync option
Adds an option to not attempt to sync the CHECKUPDATES_DB. This provides
a way to very quickly get a list of outdated packages provided there is
a different mechanism to update CHECKUPDATES_DB already in place such as
a crontab entry or systemd.timer.
