Details

Description:
1) vnStat does not use or depend on ncurses as the package page (http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/vnstat/) indicates.

2) The package installs both cron and rc.d scripts although both shouldn't be installed at the same time, otherwise inaccurate readings can occur if both are active. Using only the rc.d script is the suggested way. post_install() (http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/community/vnstat/repos/community-i686/vnstat.install) only mentions the cron file.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
1.10-1

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  Updated dependencies and added comments to install file to reflect the option of using rc script sans cron job. Added line warning that both should not be active at the same time.
