PacmanConf
pacmanconf is a simple parser for pacman config files.
This parser parses pacman config files textually. It makes no attempt convert fields such as SigLevel or Usage into bitfields.
pacmanconf is a wrapper around the pacman-conf binary. Instead of fully parsing pacman.conf files, pacman-conf is used as an intermediate step to greatly simplify the parser logic.
However this is more of an implementation detail and pacman-conf will be called automatically when parsing files.
