- JdeBP 6y agoYes you were. You were talking about pacsave/pacnew. There are no such things on the operating systems discussed in the headlined article.
- zaarn 6y agoOkay, to elaborate, a solution like the one proposed in the article, if implemented on ArchLinux, would prevent or minimize pacnew/pacsave. That doesn't make the rest of the comment irrelevant because pacnew/pacsave are specific to arch, hence that very sentence being only specific to arch. I mentioned them mostly because the top comment in this thread also mentioned them briefly. I hope that ELI5 was sufficient for you.
