<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Guillaume,<br>
<br>
is manjaro-systems the only package we have to take care of? Is it
better to some configuration so we can decide which packages
should be installed/checked first? Your patch is fine. I rather
would have an additional option to also check for other packages.
Maybe we will introduce something which needs the same checkings.<br>
<br>
... maybe I'm wrong and we can handle all with manjaro-system.<br>

some of you already know, pacman 4.2 should be released this

I already worked on porting pamac to this new version because it
comes with some API changes.
<br>
I also worked on an idea I had now I know better pacman an libalpm
concerning SyncFirst option.
<br>
Manjaro comes with a custom version a pacman with a revert patch
to continue to use SyncFirst even if it has been deprecated by
pacman developers. The only reason is to update manjaro-system
package first to perform some actions before the real update.
<br>
I propose a 30 lines patch to replace syncfirst patch which
permits two things:
<br>
-- avoid the usage of syncfirst option in /etc/pacman.conf
<br>
-- auto update manjaro-system package first when required and
continue the transaction with the need to relaunch pacman.
<br>
To allow you to have an idea I join a PKGBUILD with the new patch.
<br>
This a first version of the patch, I you have some idea to
improve, tell me.
<br>
What do you think about it ?
<br>
<br>
Guillaume.
