/** Update a package database /** Update a package database
*
* An update of the package database \a db will be attempted. Unless
* \a force is true, the update will only be performed if the remote
* database was modified since the last update.
*
* A transaction is necessary for this operation, in order to obtain a
* database lock. During this transaction the front-end will be informed
* of the download progress of the database via the download callback.
*
* Example:
* @code
* pmdb_t *db;
* int result;
* db = alpm_list_getdata(alpm_option_get_syncdbs());
* if(alpm_trans_init(PM_TRANS_TYPE_SYNC, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL) == 0) {
* result = alpm_db_update(0, db);
* alpm_trans_release();
*
* if(result > 0) {
* printf("Unable to update database: %s\n", alpm_strerrorlast());
* } else if(result < 0) {
* printf("Database already up to date\n");
* } else {
* printf("Database updated\n");
* }
* }
* @endcode
*
* @ingroup alpm_databases
* @note After a successful update, the \link alpm_db_get_pkgcache()
* package cache \endlink will be invalidated
* @param force if true, then forces the update, otherwise update only in case * @param force if true, then forces the update, otherwise update only in case
