strange Pacman -Syu output

Hi

My thinkpad laptop is runnig archlinux from 2 months (my best linux experience
), I upgrade my system 3 or 4 times in a week (pacman -Syu), my pacman.conf:

#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# NOTE: If you find a mirror that is geographically close to you, please
#       move it to the top of the server list, so pacman will choose it
#       first.
#
# To re-sort your mirror lists by ping/traceroute results, use the
# /usr/bin/sortmirrors script.  It requires the "netselect" package.
#

# See the pacman manpage for option directives

#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
LogFile     = /var/log/pacman.log
NoUpgrade   = etc/passwd etc/group etc/shadow etc/sudoers
NoUpgrade   = etc/fstab etc/raidtab etc/ld.so.conf
NoUpgrade   = etc/rc.conf etc/rc.local
NoUpgrade   = etc/modprobe.conf etc/modules.conf
NoUpgrade   = etc/lilo.conf boot/grub/menu.lst
HoldPkg     = pacman glibc
XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c %u

#
# REPOSITORIES
#   - can be defined here or included from another file
#   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here.
#   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
#

#[staging]
#Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/tur/staging

#[testing]
#Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/testing/os/i686

[current]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/current

[extra]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/extra

#[unstable]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/unstable

#[community]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/community

# An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs

..Today the pacman -Syu output was:


:: Replace alsa-driver with kernel26 from "current"? [Y/n] y

Re: strange Pacman -Syu output

Thanks for the quick answer, I have some litle questions (My english is not very nice):

1.- The packages in the testing servers are now stable, this is the reason for the all new packages?
2.- Can i upgrade with no problems or if better wait a while?
3.- arch 0.8?


thanks in advance

Re: strange Pacman -Syu output

1. Yes, they are being moved over to current which is why they are being listed for download.

2. Some people have reported the update went without problem, I on the other hand am going to wait a few days and make sure the mirrors are properly synchronised, and make sure the little bugs, if there are any have been stamped out.

3. nope, still arch 0.7.2
