yidhra.farmOpen Salt State Files to Enable/Disable Parallel Downloads for PacmanAt the moment I have 13 Arch Linux ARM SOC devices. Today I learned pacman, as of version 6, supports parallel downloads for updates. By default this option is disabled. Since I uses Open Salt to manage configurations among other things, I decided to write a pair of Salt state files to enable the parallel download feature and to disable it if the need arises. Having the state files will also allow adjustment of how many parallel downloads will be allowed.
