Are you sure it's the db file? I would have pointed at the thing that
tells updatesync-many that packages are ready to be updated: cvs and tags.

You think someone may have accidentally untagged all of core? I'm not
sure what you're trying to say here.

I reconstructed the commands I ran for uploading the package. It turns
out I accidentally uploaded the package to
~/staging/core64/add/add/*.pkg.tar.gz. This was probably the cause,
sorry for only reporting this now.

Cheers,

Weird. I had a similar issue one time where the dir didn't exist
(/add) so when I uploaded it, it was uploaded as a _file_ named 'add'.

This is yet-another-craptastic-reason-we-need-new-db-scripts, eh?
