A typical day’s worth of updating my machines usually looks a bit like this:
[tim@myhost tmp]$ sudo pacman -Syu :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date multilib is up to date :: Starting full system upgrade... warning: gnome-disk-utility: ignoring package upgrade (2.30.1-1 => 2.32.0-2) warning: gvfs: ignoring package upgrade (1.6.3-1 => 1.6.6-1) warning: kernel26: ignoring package upgrade (2.6.34.3-1 => 2.6.36.3-1) warning: kernel26-headers: ignoring package upgrade (2.6.34.3-1 => 2.6.36.3-1) warning: libbonoboui: ignoring package upgrade (2.24.3-1 => 2.24.4-1) warning: libgnome: ignoring package upgrade (2.30.0-1 => 2.32.0-3) warning: nvidia: ignoring package upgrade (256.53-1 => 260.19.29-1) warning: nvidia-utils: ignoring package upgrade (256.53-1 => 260.19.29-1) warning: proftpd: local (1.3.3-5) is newer than extra (1.3.3c-1) warning: rdesktop: local (1.6.0_rc1-1) is newer than extra (1.6.0-5) warning: udev: ignoring package upgrade (151-3 => 165-1) warning: udisks: ignoring package upgrade (1.0.0-0.20100223 => 1.0.2-1) warning: youtube-dl: local (2010.12.09-2) is newer than community (2010.12.09-1) resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts...
You know it’s bad when you have so many custom packages, that you may as well have your own distribution :).
