I want to write pactest files for the 2 problematic cases I mentioned here:
http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-August/009055.html
If lp.files = ["symdir/ -> dir/"] worked, I could do this easily; but that
doesn't work. And I have no other idea. Anyway, thx for your note, I didn't know
the symlink feature earlier.
Bye, ngaba
