From 0c99eabd50752310f42ec808c8734a338122ec86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Allan McRae Date: Sun, 9 Oct 2016 22:52:27 +1000 Subject: Remove contrib The contrib directory takes too much of the pacman developer's limited time, which could be better spent developing and reviewing patches for the primary projects. The community can pick this up in a separate repository if wanted.

Note that this means all packages files will - be read from disk.

The format is simple -enough to be parsed and this way we might just detect more problems because the -libalpm parsing code might also have bugs. We also stay much more portable -which might be good for people that want to check a db, but don't actually have -pacman installed. - - -See Also --------- -linkman:repo-add[8] - -include::footer.txt[] -- cgit v1.2.3-24-g4f1b
