Would it be possible to add 'etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action' to the backup array in the PKGBUILD for ifplugd? I think it should also be considered a configuration file, since for example I always customize it to make ifplugd behave the way I need it to behave, and the way things are now the ifplugd.action file gets overwritten whenever the package is updated/reinstalled, which is a nuisance.

Thanks.
This task depends upon

ifplugd.action is not intended to be customized itself, but I see we replace it our own copy as well, so it seems fair enough. I don't actively use this package anymore, so if anything else jumps out at you, let me know.

You can also create a custom action script and declare it with the following (as per the man page):

-r | --run= EXEC
Specify program to execute when link status changes (default: /etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action)
