Well, we pride ourselves with having competent users. I think waiting a year is conservative and safe. However, personally I think we can wait for the next pacman release and write an announcment. Then we give everyone a month to update and we can have a smooth transition. Assuming of course that everyone is on-board with this change. I would like to get some opinions from packaging devs with experiences. -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16
