Listbugs equivalent for Arch?

Hello!

As a former Debian user, before upgrading I used to run apt-listbugs and/or visit a webpage (can't remember the url) listing the current issues with new packages.

I was wondering if there is an Arch equivalent, so that I can avoid known problems (e.g. this one).

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, no. You should read the news and skim the forums before updating so you know what to expect. Watching flyspray might be overkill.

EDIT: pacnanny might help you to read the news if needed

Flyspray isn't well suited to this. The only parser I've seen so far is this:

Yup -- it's you, and me, and all the other Archers...

Check the forums regularly
