Should outdated changelogs be removed from the packages? I'm guessing that this was the reason for removing the changelog from parcelite: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/37105 https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/parcellite&id=0fbf9f05e92ec7960a5ab40add6771a

2013-07-05 Thread Karol Blazewicz
I'm using syslinux for my bootloader. I'm using BIOS, not UEFI, on a 32-bit system. After updating syslinux 5.10-3 -> 6.01-1 the modules' symlinks in /boot/syslinux didn't get updated and still point to /usr/lib/syslinux/ instead of to /usr/lib/syslinux/bios e.g. menu.c32 -> /usr/lib/syslinux/menu.
