The "Description" field allows a hook to provide a some text for frontends
to use in describing what the hook is doing. For example:
Description = updating info page directory

The path of the default system hook directory was created
by concatenating `myhandle->root` (usually "/"), and
SYSHOOKDIR (usually "/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/"), resulting
in "//usr/share/libalpm/hooks/". Fix this by skipping the
initial slash from SYSHOOKDIR.

Signature downloading and DB validation was being based on the most
recent download status for the DB. If a DB successfully downloaded but
a signature did not, db_update would move to the next server. If the
next server tried does not have a more recent copy of the DB, db_update
would not download the DB again and would forget that the DB had
previously been updated. In this case it would skip validation
entirely, leaving an updated DB with the original validation status.

When replacing a file with a directory, any files inside the new
directory cannot possibly exist on the filesystem and can be skipped.
This allows cross-package symlink-to-directory transitions when there

new directory.

libarchive will not extract a directory over an existing directory
symlink, making it impossible to replace a symlink with a directory
across packages. Adding the ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_UNLINK and
ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_SYMLINKS causes libarchive to unlink the existing
symlink and prevents it from extracting any paths that contain
a symlink, which we should not be doing anyway.

Large file support is enabled by our configure script as required. If anything
linking to libalpm does not also define large file support, there will be

Negative subscripts to indexed arrays are not supported before 4.2. However,
since substring expansion works on arrays, we can specify an offset of -1 to
be taken relative to one greater than the maximum index of the specified
array (see Parameter Expansion section of the bash man page). This works with
both Bash 4.1 and 4.2, and 4.1 is already the oldest supported by pacman.
