Nagy Gabor e63366ae5e New remove option : -u / --unneeded (FS#6505).
With --unneeded option 'pacman -R' doesn't stop in case of dependency error;
it removes the needed-dependency targets from the target-list instead.  See
also: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-October/009653.html .

The patch also adds a new causingpkg field to pmdepmissing_t which indicates
the to-be-removed package which would cause a dependency break. This is
needed, because miss->depend.name may be a provision. miss->causingpkg will
be useful in -R dependency error messages too.

[Xavier: renamed inducer to causingpkg, removed the _alpm_pkgname_pkg_cmp
helper function as requested by Aaron. This might be added by a further
commit.  Other small cleanups, updated manpage and bash completion.]

README

Here is a brief description of the files included in this directory:

PKGBUILD.vim - a vim/gvim syntax file for PKGBUILDs. Colors known variable
names, highlights common errors such as invalid characters in pkgname or
pkgver, etc.

bash_completion - a bash completion script for pacman, install in
/etc/bash_completion.d/ for use (but rename to something descriptive!).

zsh_completion - a zsh completion script, install (with a rename) to
/usr/share/zsh/site-functions/.

pacdiff - a simple pacnew/pacorig/pacsave updater for /etc/.

pacsearch - a colorized search combining both -Ss and -Qs output. Installed
packages are easily identified with a *** and local-only packages are also
listed.

re-pacman - regenerate a pacman package based on installed files and the pacman
database entries. Useful for reuse, or possible config file extension.

vimproject - a project file for the vim project plugin (some files listed
may need to be updated).

wget-xdelta.sh - A download script for pacman which allows binary deltas
generated with makepkg to be used instead of downloading full binary packages.
This should cut download sizes for some package upgrades significantly.

gensync, updatesync - The former repository management scripts that have since
been superseded by repo-add and repo-remove. They are here for posterity's
sake, and to show how repo-add and repo-remove can be wrapped in other scripts.
