Dear Arch Linux dev team,

I just want to say that I went through this update this morning.  Having
read the chatter on arch-dev-public, it was incredibly simple to find any
AUR packages that might have snagged my update.  I fixed them very
quickly (I only had four), and everything was amazingly smooth.

So thank you for making this update nearly seamless.  I think I speak for
a majority of Arch Linux users when I say that your work is appreciated
immensely.  Though maybe you all don't hear enough about what an awesome
job you do.

There was one package that kept me from updating right away.  I have been
meaning to play with glusterfs, so I had the package installed on my
system.  There is still a /usr/sbin/mount.glusterfs present in that
package.  But since I sitll haven't gotten around to trying it out, a
simple removal of the package was all I needed to move that update right
along.

Thanks again.

Regards,
