2) I fixed some bugs in endlists.sh and endsets.sh. The rule insertion was messed up, and was over indexing leading to some rules not getting added, this is fixed now. Also I added the --help and --version options.
3) I have added a new tool called rmpac-files.sh . This is specific to arch/parabola and pacman. It's a utility to remove files that "already exist in the file system" which prevents updating. This seems to be a perenial error with pacman. Be careful with this file as I have used it to mess my install up, and I required a rescue disk. I thought I'd share it anyways.
