[pacman-dev] Bug with pacman -Ss

[Douglas Soares de Andrade]

Hi guys,

I discovered a bug in pacman -Ss. Try in your consoles:

pacman3 -Ss dvd+rw

or

pacman -Ss dvd+rw

And the package exists:

[douglas at ressonance ~]$ pacman3 -S dvd+rw-tools
:: dvd+rw-tools-7.0-1: local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n] n
warning: dvd+rw-tools-7.0-1 is up to date -- skipping
 local database is up to date
[douglas at ressonance ~]$

Another doubt:

Why it is giving me this response:

warning: dvd+rw-tools-7.0-1 is up to date -- skipping
local database is up to date

About:

warning: dvd+rw-tools-7.0-1 is up to date -- skipping

I already know that it is up to date because of this line:

:: dvd+rw-tools-7.0-1: local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n] n

Why not keep the pacman2 behaviour ?
