Make pacman path handling (hopefully) a bit more intuitive
I made pacman path handling a bit odd with my rootdir changes a while back in order to increase flexability. However, it had a bit of a drawback in that dbpath/logfile/etc. would not default to being under the rootdir if that was the only parameter you specified in the config file or on the command line. (Note: logfile handling was always broken due to the explicit logfile line required in config files) Pacman now works as follows: if a rootdir is specified but not dbpath or logfile: attempt to place the logfile and dbpath in their default locations under root if an explicit dbpath/logfile is specified: interpret these as absolute paths, regardless of the rootdir setting if nothing is specified: fall back to configured defaults Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
