2011-02-28Check local DB version before continuing transactionDan McGee
Ensure we have a local DB version that is up to par with what we expect before we go down any road that might modify it. This should prevent stupid mistakes with the 3.5.X upgrade and people not running pacman-db-upgrade after the transaction as they will need to. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2011-02-25alpm: remove public visibility of pmpkghash_tDave Reisner
There's no API functions exposed which allow manipulation of this type, so remove it from public view. Also, rename the public and private alpm_db_get_pkgcache symbol to alpm_db_get_pkgcache_has. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <d@falconindy.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2011-02-04Read pkgcache into hashAllan McRae
Read the package information for sync/local databases into a pmpkghash_t structure. Provide a alpm_db_get_pkgcache_list() method that returns the list from the hash object. Most usages of alpm_db_get_pkgcache are converted to this at this stage for ease of implementation. Review whether these are better accessing the hash table directly at a later stage.

2011-01-31alpm/depcmp: new NODEPVERSION flagXavier Chantry
This flag allows to disable version checking in dependency resolving code. depcmp_tolerant respects the NODEPVERSION flag but we still keep the original strict depcmp. The idea is to reduce the impact of the NODEPVERSION flag by using it in fewer places. I replaced almost all depcmp calls by depcmp_tolerant in deps.c (except in the public find_satisfier used by deptest / pacman -T), but I kept depcmp in sync.c and conflict.c Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-01-29alpm: drop old target interfacesXavier Chantry
It's likely that these interfaces will break sooner or later, now that pacman no longer uses them. So better force the two people who use them to migrate their code to the new add_pkg/remove_pkg interface, which is very easy anyway. Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
2011-01-29alpm: deprecate old interfaceXavier Chantry
Old interface is marked as deprecated: int alpm_sync_target(char *target); int alpm_sync_dbtarget(char *db, char *target); int alpm_add_target(char *target); int alpm_remove_target(char *target); New recommended interface: int alpm_add_pkg(pmpkg_t *pkg); int alpm_remove_pkg(pmpkg_t *pkg); Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
2011-01-29alpm: new alpm_remove_pkg interfaceXavier Chantry
For consistency with alpm_add_pkg. The new recommended interface is alpm_add_pkg / alpm_remove_pkg, all others interfaces are deprecated. Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
2011-01-29alpm: add alpm_find_grp_pkgsXavier Chantry
This group function is meant to help group handling from frontend : it scans all dbs, handling ignored packages and duplicate members (the first repo where a member is found has the priority). Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
2011-01-29alpm: new alpm_add_pkg interfaceXavier Chantry
This new function is meant to deprecate all existing sync/add target functions : int alpm_sync_target(char *target); int alpm_sync_dbtarget(char *db, char *target); int alpm_add_target(char *target); Rather than dropping these 3 interfaces, it might be better to rewrite them using alpm_add_pkg for now. Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
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. Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry <chantry.xavier@gmail.com>
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. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-01-11Add a progressbar for package integrity checkingDan McGee
This can take a while too, and it is really easy to add the necessary callback stuff for adding a progressbar. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
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. Dan: a few more small changes to ensure things compile, adjusting some printf format string characters to accommodate the larger size on x86_64.

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. Introduce a new alpm_find_satisfier which is hopefully more flexible, this should make implementation of deptest very easy, and also help alpm tools such as pactree.

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.

2009-10-11int typing: s/unsigned short/int/ in libalpmDan McGee
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>
