Re: Git migration completed

I am guessing it is safe and recommended to delete

/var/lib/pacman/sync/community.*

now. Or is there a reason not to?

Routinely doing

pacman -Sc

will do the needful. (along with other cleanups)

@JoeCool : I will prefer

sudo pacman -Scc

and answer yes to second question

Double 'c' will remove all package files. Possibly not what one normally wants.

Right, clean will even ask for unused databases. I totally forgot about that. Thanks.

Re: Git migration completed

Congratulations to the arch packager team - the migration went very well on the new system. Amazingly well planned in details. and executed to the highest standard we could have expected. A few minor niggles as things settled down but it is working great now.  I continue to be a strong supporter of the way Arch is run and looked after.
