DetailsDue to our broadband being down, I set up a local
repository via NFS. Everything worked fine, except when the path to the repository in pacman.conf was incorrect, which caused Pacman to segfault when running pacman -S <packname>. I think the same happens if the internet is down when running pacman -S as normal. |
This task depends upon

I have tried to reproduce this deliberately, by renaming mount points and so on, but pacman did not segfault. I know the problem occured after we renamed the NFS mount after initially doing pacman -Syu with the old name.

I've seen this problem before too, but I can't reproduce it at the moment.
