yay -Syucould crash after a successful transaction when the completion cache refresh was still traversing sync databases while the main flow released the shared ALPM handle. The race was caused by a fire-and-forget goroutine inOperationService.Runwith no synchronization before cleanup.Serialize completion cache teardown with command teardown
OperationService.Runso the method does not return until the cache update is done.main()cannot reachdbExecutor.Cleanup()early.Add focused coverage for the synchronization point
