I often use Ctrl+C when I forgot something and want to cancel the

Hi there,

since the update from pacman 3.3 to 3.4 it reacts really slow to a
SIGINT (Ctrl+C) while syncing or installing a packet.
With 3.3 it immediately stops.

Not a hugh problem, but I would know why it is so.

I don't think we changed our signal handler at all in 3.4. I haven't
noticed any difference while syncing, and you probably won't find me
hitting Ctrl-C during package installation that often.

Doesn't it cause corruptions and out-of-syncness between the filesystem and package database if you abort the install?
