my problem is that I've switched to using wget and that now these are
always downloaded... out of date or not. I imagine it's because wget
doesn't actually have a file to check because they aren't preserved. I
use wget because I throttle the download, I can easily fill my ADSL.
I don't think its possible.
I have a idea. I'm not sure if the downloaded db files are extracted
into the sync folder.
If it is, you can use a script to sync, recreating the db.tar.gz files
from the sync directory before running pacman -Sy.
