How does decpac determine what goes in the conf file? #8

This may not be a bug. I noticed earlier today that curl was missing from the decpac.conf

Generate roughly includes the stuff in pacman -Qe, so if curl is added or removed would depend on if other packages that have been explicitly installed require it.

I checked on my system and curl isn't in pacman -Qe so I guess there's something else (and more likely a bunch of things since it's a common util) that pull it in as a dependency.

FWIW if you add it to decpac.conf yourself it will guarantee it's on the system regardless of other packages.
