It is definitely a bug in the sense that it segfaults- we provide no

pardon my ignorance, but what is _package_changelog_open in be_package.c
for?
pacman -Qpc<package file>
Not sync *database packages*, but *package files*.
be_local: /var/lib/pacman/local
be_sync: /var/lib/pacman/sync/*.db
be_package: package files
ah, yes of course - thanks
Where have you actually seen changelogs in sync databases?
well, it's difficult for me to check for specific changelogs at the moment.
are you saying that they are not stored in sync databases at all? even if
there is one in the local database (e.g. scite)?
Nope.
$ bsdtar tf /var/lib/pacman/sync/community.db | grep scite
scite-2.24-1/
scite-2.24-1/desc
scite-2.24-1/depends
okay, so changelogs are only ever stored in the local database. so all i
have to do is check whether a package is installed before attempting to
retrieve a changelog.
thanks for your help!
