Hi, assuming it anyway is the same package version and release, then it makes no difference if the package is installed from the cache or downloaded. If it's in the cache, it will not be downloaded again, but get installed from cache. However, since Jude first -Rs or -Rss the packages and does _not reinstall_ the packages, there should be no old config in the way after removing them ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Pacnew_and_Pacsave#.pacsave ), excepted of configs in $HOME. Just reinstalling packages is something else, even after deleting a .pacnew file no new one gets installed, the edited config either way stays untouched. Regards, Ralf
