Most of these files should be taken care of by their respective package- that is the point of the backup array in PKGBUILDs. File a bug against the package if you believe a file should be in the backup array. Things like fstab are already covered in their respective packages (although it is recommended you wait to remove these lines from NoUpgrade until after pacman3 is released and the package has been upgraded once, if I remember the bug correctly). -Dan _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
