There is no point discussing whether we should use it or not, what is important is to discuss *how* to use it. There are two main ways : 1) just printing a message : error, warning or just debug ? 2) stops here, and probably returning -1 . Should we run ldconfig before returning? The ldconfig question in case 2 also applies to the case where we cancel a transaction with ctrl+c (sate_interrupted). _______________________________________________ pacman-dev mailing list pacman-dev@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/pacman-dev
