[pacman-dev] [PATCH] contrib/paclist: rewrite in bash

Wed Jun 29 23:52:41 EDT 2011


The original concept for this script was a bash implementation, but
turned out to be unreasonable at the time due to the efficiencies of the
database format. Since those have been resolved, we can rewrite this in
bash as a much simpler script.

Restore this script it its original intended glory in beautiful bash. I opted
for the gettext bindings to preserve pacman error messages.
