1e2b398406 pacman.8: fix typo in the documentation of --asexplicit
Add a space between the option and its argument. Also, do not enclose
the argument in asterisk characters.

Fixes a typo introduced in aa4c61f (Document database checking options,
2014-12-28).

34749e177d Perform limited conflict checking with --force
Pacman currently bails when trying to extract a file over a directory
when using --force.  Instead of ignoring all conflict, perform the
check and skip any file-file conflicts. Conflicts between directories
and files are still flagged and cause the transation to abort.

As a bonus, we now know about files changing packages when using
--force, so we can skip removing them fixing upgrade046.

85712814cd Revert "Add -S --recursive operation"
This reverts commit f3fa77bcf1 along with
making other necessary changes to fully back this (mis)feature out until
we can do it correctly.

The quick summary here is this was not implemented correctly; provides
are not fully taken into account in this logic, and making that happen
exposes a lot of other flaws in this code that are covered up later on
in the dependency resolving process by several other pieces of
convoluted and conditional logic.

Tests have been adjusted accordingly. Some test EXISTS conditions have
been removed as we already know the package is installed locally, and we
also are checking the VERSION condition anyway.

With these two related revert commits, we do have some changes in test
pass/fail results:

* upgrade078.py: does not pass, this is due to --recursive getting
  removed for -U/-S operations after this commit.
* sync302.py: the version checks have been disabled, so this test
  continues to pass but has been scaled back in scope.
* sync303.py: now passes, was failing before.
* sync304.py: still failing, was failing before.
* sync305.py: now passes, was failing before.
* sync306.py: still passes, was passing before.

be229d129e Don't remove unknown files in cache cleaning code
This removes the hack I added to skip '*.sig' files earlier since there
are other files that also fall into the same bucket- source packages
from `makepkg --source`, delta files, etc. Rather than prompting for
each and every one, simply skip them. Doing '-Scc' rather than '-Sc'
will delete these files if that is really what you want to do.

0d2600c575 Remove -f short option for --force
This is not something that should be used on a frequent basis, and
giving it a short option encourages use without making the drawbacks
obvious. For the 1% of situations that require it, the 5 extra

30d978a966 vercmp: ensure 2.0a and 2.0.a do not compare equal
We had this interesting set of facts conundrum, according to vercmp
return values:
    2.0a <  2.0
    2.0  <  2.0.a
    2.0a == 2.0.a

This introduces a code change that ensures '2.0a < 2.0.a' as would be
expected by the first two comparisons. Unfortunately this stays us a bit
further from upstream RPM code, but those are the breaks (in RPM, the
versions involving 'a' do in fact compare the same, but they are both
greater than the bare '2.0').

f3fa77bcf1 Add -S --recursive operation
This closely matches what we had before for -R --recursive. Basically,
when specifying a target (e.g., pacman), we can now recursively pull all
dependencies, regardless of version specifiers and whether they are
already satisfied in the local database. This could be used to update
pacman on a system with an old glibc, for example, as both pacman and
glibc would get pulled into the transaction.

This is most useful with --needed to prevent needless reinstalls as
described in the man page changes.

The end goal of this change is to wire it into SyncFirst and have it be
the default mode of operation there, but that belongs in a separate
changeset.

This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run

The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of

For a user, that is typically ~/.gnupg.

GnuPG home.  One may override the default using --gpgdir on the command-line
