[pacman-dev] inconsistent behaviour in handle.c
Hello, The functions defined in handle.c seem to have an inconsistent behaviour. Many of them check that handle is not NULL before acting, and set pm_errno to PM_ERR_HANDLE_NULL if so. But others do not, and segfault if used before alpm_initialize() is called. Is there a rationale behind that or should it be patched? Regards, Rémy.

Should probably be patched. -Dan
