About /var/pacman/cache

It is good or bad idea to copy this folder from one arch pc to other?
It can save download times I think but it creates mess or not?

Re: About /var/pacman/cache

it's just a store of downloaded pkgs so you don't have to waste bandwidth downloading them again if you ever need them ,, it creates no mess imo and is in fact a good idea to just copy them over that way you neither have to wait for the download nor waste your bandwidth when you don't need to ..

Re: About /var/pacman/cache

It's perfectly safe to copy this folder, or even share it between multiple PCs (nfs?)
