2007-11-18Versioned provisions.Nagy Gabor
This patch introduces versioned provisions in "provision 1.0-1" format. _alpm_db_whatprovides was modified accordingly (added sync500.py), alpm_depcmp was modified accordingly (add043.py passes now; added add044.py and add045.py). Notes: alpm_db_search now uses the whole versioned %PROVIDES% string in its search. debug logging was simplified in alpm_depcmp. Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu> [Xavier: fixed a few typos, duplicate const strings with strdup before modifying them, put some debugging back in alpm_depcmp, minor code cleanups (var/function renaming), added a note in PKGBUILD man page.] Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> [Dan: made strcmp checks clearer, added a comment] Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-11-13Make it easier to ignore multiple packages.Nathan Jones

For instance: pacman -Su --ignore kernel26,udev,glibc This was requested in the comments of FS#8054. Signed-off-by: Nathan Jones <nathanj@insightbb.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-11-08Get rid of the footnotes section in generated manpagesDan McGee
We really don't need it since it is just links. However, we do need to figure out how to get our old links to show up right. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-11-08doc: update links in footer.txt so they are actual linksDan McGee
Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-11-08Update PKGBUILD.5 with missing devel variable descriptionsDan McGee
The lack of descriptions on some of the variables was causing issues with documentation generation. Adding text to them fixes this. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-11-08Sync asciidoc.conf with GIT repository changesDan McGee
We got our file from the GIT repository originally, so keep it up to date. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-11-07Update the PKGBUILD example in the manpagesDan McGee
The old one was old. Use something a bit more recent and a bit simpler as well so it actually looks OK in the manpage. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-10-14Updates to fix Doxygen documentation generationDan McGee
We had way too much going on with the Doxygen manpage generation. Clean it up quite a bit by removing directory manpages, using relative paths, not having a manpage for every single alpm function, and ensuring internal functions are not documented publicly. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-09-27document the -Qii option.Chantry Xavier
I suppose -Qii could be used for other things than displaying the list of backup files, but currently, it's the only one, so that's how I documented it.. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-09-23Allow a normal 'make' to compile without asciidoc installedDan McGee
If we don't have asciidoc installed or enabled, we should still have a successful make. However, we want to ensure 'make dist' fails without asciidoc. This commit should ensure this. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-09-16Merge branch 'asciidoc' into workingDan McGee
We're getting close to release, so might as well do this now so people can actually update some of our documentation.
2007-09-16Remove the DB consistency check from pacman and libalpm.Chantry Xavier
This reverts commit dfc85cb5f516ffbcff557522e9703c5c7d88b047 and b6f3fe6957d0206485eac98fb2120578b75d0058. This DB check is already in testdb (among others). Also testdb now uses the db path set at make time by default, so specifying the db path is optional. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-08-16Update manpage with new query options.Chantry Xavier

2007-07-16Remove unnecessary entries from .gitignore filesDan McGee
.gitignore works recursively, so we don't need Makefile and Makefile.in in all of the subdirectory .gitignore files. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-07-16Man page revision timeDan McGee
Spruce up the asciidoc formatting, fix a few issues that we had. Formatting now looks pretty good in both the manpage output and the XHTML output. Also added some options that we have changed since 3.0, and a few wording updates, etc. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-07-09Add asciidoc checking to configure.ac, make manpage generation optionalDan McGee
Include manpages when we ship a package tarball, and allow them to be generated by the end user if they want by using the --enable-asciidoc option to ./configure. This will allow us to maintain manpages in an easier to modify format while still keeping the make dependencies to a minimum. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-07-09Add a manpage for repo-addDan McGee
We still need some work here- we should have a repo-remove manpage link to this one, and we should not have to struggle with asciidoc formatting to get it to work like any other multiple-command manpage works. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-07-09Asciidoc updates- make it pretty, fix build, etc.Dan McGee
* Fix up the target so we rebuild the manpages when we edit the corresponding text file. * Add vim modelines to all of the asciidoc files ensureing the right syntax highlighting is used and we have expandtabs turned off. * Start making a few small changes to PKGBUILD.5 to make it pretty in both HTML and manpage format output. * Fix the manlink macro to include the manpage section in the link.
