"1 pacnew files found (0 added). Update files now? (Y/n)" with no pacnew files #31

Closed benoliver999 closed 8 years ago

benoliver999 commented 8 years ago

This seems to happen on every upgrade since the last apacman update. Tested on several machines.

I can't find any pacnew files on the system, and hitting yes or no just makes the install process continue as if there were none (or as if I'd hit 'no' if there actually were some).

Is anyone else getting the same thing?

@benoliver999 It's not apacman.

You must be using some sort of wrapper that is aliased to pacman to handle .pacnew files.

$ type -a pacman

Ahem... sorry about that. It's pacmatic - I completely forgot.

oshazard commented 8 years ago

Ah right pacmatic. Someone else had an issue with it before. keenerd isn't maintaining that one anymore either.

If there are specific features from it you can't live without, then feel free to open a new issue, describe in detail the feature request(s) and I'll implement them (as option flags + config file but not default)

benoliver999 commented 8 years ago

That's a generous offer. It would mainly be an option to print any new arch news, as well as a way to detect and edit pacnew/pacsave files - or leave them be.

Is it not drifting a little far from the 'aur wrapper' idea? I'm happy to file the feature requests if you think it's something that apacman might benefit from.

oshazard commented 8 years ago

I suppose that's true. pacmatic is ~200 lines, so I didn't think it so bad. But a fork added to apacman-utils would be a better idea.
