2011-01-29alpm/dep: add alpm_find_dbs_satisfierXavier Chantry
This is a public interface for resolvedep. It looks nicer to expose it this way rather than through sync_target. This function can also be helpful for external tools as it should give good results close to how pacman select a package for satisfying a given dep.

2011-01-29Add interactive provider selectionXavier Chantry
If there are multiple providers in one db, pacman used to just stop at the first one (both during dependency resolution or for pacman -S 'provision' which uses the same code). This adds a new conversation callback so that the user can choose which provider to install. By default (user press enter or --noconfirm), the first provider is still chosen, so for example the behavior of sync402 and 403 is preserved. But at least the user now has the possibility to make the right choice in a manual run. If one of the provider is already installed, it is picked for reinstall/upgrade, so that provision 002/003 pactest now pass. $ pacman -S community/smtp-server :: There are 3 providers available for smtp-server: 1) courier-mta 2) esmtp 3) exim Which one do you want to install? Enter a number (default=1): Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
2011-01-29Remove need to explicitly register the local DBDan McGee
Perform the cheap struct and string setup of the local DB at handle initialization time to match the teardown we do when releasing the handle. If the local DB is not needed, all real initialization is done lazily after DB paths and other things have been configured anyway. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-01-21Remove epoch as an independent fieldDan McGee
Instead, go the same route we have always taken with version-release in libalpm and treat it all as one piece of information. Makepkg is the only script that knows about epoch as a distinct value; from there on out we will parse out the components as necessary. This makes the code a lot simpler as far as epoch handling goes. The downside here is that we are tossing some compatibility to the wind; packages using force will have to be rebuilt with an incremented epoch to keep their special status.

2011-01-07Use size_t for alpm_list sizesAllan McRae
There is a lot of swtiching between size_t and int for alpm_list sizes in the codebase. Start converting these to all be size_t by adjusting the return type of alpm_list_count and fixing all additional warnings given by -Wconversion that are generated by this change.

2010-12-12alpm: don't expose alpm_depcmpXavier Chantry
Either we expose all low levels function dealing with pmdepend_t (splitdep and depfree come to mind), or we don't. Since none of the tools use depcmp, I chose to remove it. In the future, we might want to expose higher level functions such as alpm_find_satisfier, or just lower level functions like splitdep and depfree together with depcmp.

2010-12-12alpm: add new alpm_find_satisfier functionXavier Chantry
whatprovides and splitdep were removed, so depcmp alone is quite useless now without splitdep, and deptest is not flexible enough.

2010-05-05Introduce -D, --databaseNagy Gabor
The request of FS#12950 is implemented. On the backend side, I introduced a new function, alpm_db_set_pkgreason(), to modify the install reason of a package in the local database. On the front-end side, I introduced a new main operation, -D/--database, which has two options, --asdeps and --asexplicit. I documented this in pacman manual. I've created two pactests to test -D: database001.py and database002.py. Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2009-11-15download: major refactor to address lingering issuesDan McGee
Sorry for this being such a huge patch, but I believe it is necessary for quite a few reasons which I will attempt to explain herein. I've been mulling this over for a while, but wasn't super happy with making the download interface more complex. Instead, if we carefully order things in the internal download code, we can actually make the interface simpler. 1. FS#15657 - This involves `name.db.tar.gz.part` files being left around the filesystem, and then causing all sorts of issues when someone attempts to rerun the operation they canceled. We need to ensure that if we resume a download, we are resuming it on exactly the same file; if we cannot be almost postive of that then we need to start over. 2. http://www.mail-archive.com/pacman-dev@archlinux.org/msg03536.html - Here we have a lighttpd bug to ruin the day. If we send both a Range: header and If-Modified-Since: header across the wire in a GET request, lighttpd doesn't do what we want in several cases. If the file hadn't been modified, it returns a '304 Not Modified' instead of a '206 Partial Content'. We need to do a stat (e.g. HEAD in HTTP terms) operation here, and the proceed accordingly based off the values we get back from it. 3. The mtime stuff was rather ugly, and relied on the called function to write back to a passed in reference, which isn't the greatest. Instead, use the power of the filesystem to contain this info. Every file downloaded internally is now carefully timestamped with the remote file time. This should allow the resume logic to work. In order to guarantee this, we need to implement a signal handler that catches interrupts, notifies the running code, and causes it to set the mtimes on the file. It then rethrows the signal so the pacman signal handler (or any frontend) works as expected. 4. We did a lot of funky stuff in trying to track the DB last modified time. It is a lot easier to just keep the downloaded DB file around and track the time on that rather than in a funky dot file. It also kills a lot of code. 5. For GPG verification of the databases down the road, we are going to need the DB file around for at least a short bit of time anyway, so this gets us closer to that.

After our recent screwup with size_t and ssize_t in the download code, I found the `-Wsign-conversion` flag to GCC to see if we were doing anything else boneheaded. I didn't find anything quite as bad, but we did have some goofups- most of our public unsigned methods would return -1 on error, which is a bit odd in an unsigned context.

2009-09-08Remove transaction typeXavier Chantry
This basically started with this change : /* Transaction */ struct __pmtrans_t { - pmtranstype_t type; pmtransflag_t flags; pmtransstate_t state; - alpm_list_t *packages; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */ + alpm_list_t *add; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */ + alpm_list_t *remove; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */ And then I have to modify all the code accordingly.
2009-09-08Add a new reason field to pmconflict_t structNagy Gabor
Sometimes "foo conflicts with bar" information is not enough, see this thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=77647. That's why I added a new reason field to our pmconflict_t struct that stores the packager- defined conflict that induced the fact that package1 conflicts with package2. I modified the front-end (in callback.c, sync.c, upgrade.c) to print this new information as well. Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu>

2009-07-22Introduce -SuuNagy Gabor
If the user switches from unstable repo to a stable one, it is quite hard to sync its system with the new repo (the user will see many "Local is newer than stable" messages, nothing more). That's why I introduced -Suu, which treats a sync package like an upgrade, iff the package version doesn't match with the local one's. I added a new pactest (sync104.py) to test this, and I updated the documentation of -Su.

2009-06-08Give sensible feedback when a repo has no configured serversDan McGee
This fixes FS#14899. When running an -Sp operation without servers configured for a repository, we would segfault, so add an assert to the backend method returning the first server preventing a null pointer dereference. In addition, add a new error code to libalpm that indicates we have no servers configured for a repository. This makes -Sy and -S <package> operations fail gracefully and helpfully when a repo is set up with no servers, as the default mirrorlist in Arch is provided this way. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2009-06-01Introduce PM_TRANS_FLAG_NOLOCKNagy Gabor
This flag indicates that the front-end will not call alpm_trans_commit(), so the database needn't be locked. This is the first step toward fixing FS#8905. If this flag is set, alpm_trans_commit() does nothing and returns with an error (that has new code: PM_ERR_TRANS_NOT_LOCKED).

2009-04-11Remove pmsyncpkg_tNagy Gabor
pmsyncpkg_t data sructure was removed: 1. pmpkg_t.reason is used instead of pmsyncpkg_t.newreason. (The target packages come from sync repos, so we can use this field without any problems. Upgrade transaction also uses this field to store this info.) 2. pmsyncpkg_t.removes was moved to pmpkg_t.removes. This step requires careful programming, because we don't duplicate packages when we add them to trans->packages. So we modify sync pkgcache when we add this transaction-only info to our package. Hence it is important to free this list when we remove any package from the target list (remove_unresolvable, remove_conflicts, trans_free), otherwise this could confuse the new sync transactions (with non-pacman GUI). Overall, our code became ~100 line shorter, and we can call our helper functions directly on trans->packages in sync.c, we don't need to maintain parallel package lists.

2009-04-11New error type: PM_ERR_PKG_IGNOREDNagy Gabor
This patch fixes FS#12059. Now sync_addtarget can return with PM_ERR_PKG_IGNORED, which indicates that although the requested package was found it is in ignorepkg, so alpm could not add it to the transaction. So the front-end can decide what to do. Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2009-02-28libalpm: remove from_md5 and to_md5 from pmdelta_tXavier Chantry
The from_md5 and to_md5 fields were a nice extra safety, which would avoid trying to apply deltas on corrupted package files. However, they are not strictly necessary, since xdelta should be able to detect that on its own. The main problem is that it is impossible to compute these informations from the delta only. So repo-add would not be able to compute the delta entry based on just the delta file. Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2009-02-23Enabled new interactive prompt and updated some testsBryan Ischo
Enabled a new prompt to ask the user if they'd like to remove unresolvable packages from the transaction rather than failing it. Many pactest tests that used to fail now return success codes, because pacman now issues a prompt allowing the user to cancel rather than failing many transactions, and the pactest scripts always choose to cancel with no error rather than failing. The only net effect is that the return status of pacman is now 0 in cases where it used to be nonzero. Signed-off-by: Bryan Ischo <bryan@ischo.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2009-01-12HoldPkg reworkNagy Gabor
The HoldPkg feature is even more important when the packages to be held are pulled automatically by pacman, in a -Rc and -Rs operation. Before, it only applied when the packages were explicitly requested by the user to be removed. This patch extends holdpkg to -Rc and -Rs by doing the HoldPkg check just before trans_commit. Additionally, the whole HoldPkg stuff was moved to the front-end. I changed the default behavior to "don't remove", so I modified remove030.py pactest as well. See also: FS#9173.

The "package : local (v1) is newer than repo (v2)" message can be moved to -Su operation. For the -S operation, it is better to have something like : "downgrading package from v1 to v2" * Don't display the "up to date -- skipping" and "up to date -- reinstalling" messages, when the local version is newer than the sync one. * Fix the behavior of --needed option to not skip a target when the local version is newer, and clarify its description. * Add a new alpm_pkg_has_force function This allows us to access the pkg->force field like any other package fields.
