XBPS major changes in June 2011.
- A configuration file "xbps-conf.plist" replaces the (un)register target in xbps-repo(8) and (un)set-prop in xbps-bin(8). For now, you can set the repositories and prefered virtual packages. - New package pattern matching code from NetBSD. Supports more ways of matching patterns in packages. - Multiple bugs fixed in virtual packages related matching code. --HG-- rename : LICENSE => COPYING

xbps-0.9.0 (???):
|
||||
|
||||
* API/ABI break. Renamed some functions to reflect its description
|
||||
a bit better... expect some more breakage in the future as well.
|
||||
* Fixed some bugs with virtual packages, to not adding duplicate package
|
||||
dictionaries in the transaction dictionary.
|
||||
|
||||
* xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8): the 'show-files' target now prints the target
|

file on symlinks, i.e: "/sbin/foo -> /sbin/blah".

It's much better and provides more alternative pattern matching options.
|
||||
|
||||
* A new configuration file in plist format to specify repositories and
|
||||
virtual packages has been created, defaults to "/etc/xbps-conf.plist".
|
||||
That means that you no longer need to register/unregister repositories;
|
||||
just add your favourite local or remote repository and the first time
|
||||
XBPS needs to access the pkg-index file it will be downloaded.
|
||||
|
||||
More options and properties will be added to the configuration file in
|
||||
the future. By default we use the official public remote repository,
|
||||
and "dcron" package for a cron daemon package.
|
||||
|
||||
The ABI/API is not compatible anymore with previous versions, you've
|
||||
been advised :-)
|
||||
|
||||
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now also checks for modified symlinks,
|
||||
and warns if any of them has been modified. For this to work, the package
