Apparently, these html pages are outdated. From man pacman on a current system : original=X, current=X, new=Y The current file is the same as the original but the new one differs. Since the user did not ever modify the file, and the new one may con- tain improvements or bugfixes, install the new file. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
