From b50863ad56c3c972e4bfbc9108523fee267d63fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de>

Subject: [PATCH] support http header to indicate an expected failure
By setting an extra HTTP header 'X-Pacman-Expected-Failure' the server can
indicate that the failure is expected. The next server is tried without
error message and without increasing the server's error count.
This can be used by servers that are not expected to be complete, for
example when serving a local cache.
