Dan, I'm not sure if I can break this up any further, but I'm happy to refactor
if it would make you more comfortable. I know it's an insanely important code
path so I encourage you (and anyone else reading) to put on your nerd glasses
and nitpick this.

Dave Reisner (3):
   repo-add: bashify reading of .PKGINFO file
   repo-add: store multi-value fields as arrays
   repo-add: use format_entry for all desc/depends fields

No ack.

Something here is entirely screwed under bash-3.2. We still have people using pacman with that version of bash. I think it does not output any of these fields...

-%CONFLICTS%
-%DEPENDS%
-%GROUPS%
-%LICENSE%
-%OPTDEPENDS%
-%PROVIDES%
-%REPLACES%

That looks like anything in an array...

To test, I created a repo with all packages in Arch starting with "a". Under bash-4.2, there was only a small difference in the output:

e.g. asymptote-2.11-1

 %OPTDEPENDS%
-python2: for the xasy GUI
-python-imaging: for the xasy GUI
-tix: for the xasy GUI
+python2:           for the xasy GUI
+python-imaging:    for the xasy GUI
+tix:               for the xasy GUI

This makes the formatting the same as that used in the PKGBUILD. Not sure I like that either...
