[pacman-dev] should repo-add handle *.links.db?

Hi,

I'm looking into creating links databases for archlinux32 and saw (thanks, 
Eli) that they are created asynchronously by systemd timers here: 
https://git.archlinux.org/infrastructure.git/tree/roles/sogrep/files

I was wondering, if it wouldn't be better to create them during repo-add 
(and repo-remove) at a similar point, where *.files.db entries are created 
- - ignoring deltas (can we ignore deltas already?), this would be somewhere 
down in db_write_entry() in repo-add - but even including deltas, it 
should not need changes at too many places.

However, before I start trying to patch repo-add and repo-remove to 
maintain a *.links.db, I wanted to ask if there are any objections to 
include this functionality there.

Cheers,
Erich
