DetailsDescription:
If someone installs the syslinux package, it doesn't mean that they're going to use syslinux as the system's boot loader. For example, when using only pxelinux the configuration file and directory in /boot/ is entirely useless. I suggest moving syslinux.cfg to e.g. /usr/share/syslinux/syslinux.cfg and copying it to /boot/syslinux/ only when syslinux-install_update is run. See Attached is an untested patch for the syslinux package. Additional info: * package version(s) * config and/or log files etc. syslinux 6.04.alpha-1 Steps to reproduce: pacman -Ql syslinux
