[pacman-dev] yesno -> noyes for PM_TRANS_CONV_REMOVE_PKGS?
Hi! IMHO the default no answer is better. If pacman is invoked with --noconfirm (see scripts), it is unpredictable what will happen. By the way, I _want_ to install the specified packages, so by default, I would say no. However, then it is not possible to test the remove_unresolvable feature with pactest :-(. [In fact, this problem appeared when I tested "-S and -U merge" with our testsuite (I proudly announce, that it seems to work and the patch sum is -100 lines), and the unresolvable targets were removed with -U as well.] Opinions?

bump? I would also prefer to keep the old behavior by default. Nagy had a simple patch for that.
