Pre-Syupgrade option to update mirrorlist

[killhellokitty]

I love Kalu, The one thing that would make it feel complete is the ability to update pacman's 'mirrolist' before a system upgrade.
Obviously this action shouldn't be run every upgrade, but it would be nice to have an option on the menu, or something like a button to trigger a mirrorlist update. thanks

Well, updating your mirrorlist isn't a job for kalu, this would be more a script or something that could be run by kalu, at most.

But if I thought about having PreSysUpgrade command lines, much like there are PostSysUpgrade ones already, in the end I don't think this would be such a good idea. Not to mention, since you don't want to update your mirrorlist every time, it wouldn't even fix your actual issue.

I feel for what you want to achieve, kalu simply isn't the place. If you want to update your mirrorlist every week (or however often you'd like) then set up a reminder or a cron job or something to trigger it, would be a better/actual solution.
