This is useful for file databases. Seems as files can increase the size of a database by quite a lot, a server could hold a database without files under one extension, and another with files under another extension. Which one is downloaded and used then depends on this setting. const char * alpm_option_get_dbext (alpm_handle_t *handle) Gets the configured database extension. int alpm_option_set_dbext (alpm_handle_t *handle, const char *dbext) Sets the database extension.

Accessors for parallel downloads alpm_db_update, alpm_fetch_pkgurl and alpm_trans_commit can all download packages in parallel. This setting configures how many packages can be downloaded in parallel, By default this value is set to 1, meaning packages are downloading sequentially. int alpm_option_get_parallel_downloads (alpm_handle_t *handle) Gets the number of parallel streams to download database and package files. int alpm_option_set_parallel_downloads (alpm_handle_t *handle, unsigned int num_streams) Sets number of parallel streams to download database and package files.

Parameters handle the context handle cb the cb to use ctx user-provided context to pass to cb Returns 0 on success, -1 on error (pm_errno is set accordingly) int alpm_option_set_questioncb (alpm_handle_t * handle, alpm_cb_question cb, void * ctx) Sets the callback used for questions. Parameters handle the context handle cb the cb to use ctx user-provided context to pass to cb Returns 0 on success, -1 on error (pm_errno is set accordingly) int alpm_option_set_remote_file_siglevel (alpm_handle_t * handle, int level) Set the remote file siglevel. Parameters handle the context handle level a alpm_siglevel_t bitfield of the level to set Returns 0 on success, -1 on error (pm_errno is set accordingly) int alpm_option_set_usesyslog (alpm_handle_t * handle, int usesyslog) Sets whether to use syslog (0 is FALSE, TRUE otherwise).
