xbps_repository_pool_init:
- Avoid unnecessary extra access(2) syscall when internalizing
repository index plist files.
xbps_repository_pool_release:
- Make sure to release internalized repository index arrays.
- xbps_handle::transd -> new member with transaction dictionary.
- xbps_transaction_prepare: returns an int.
- xbps_transaction_commit: doesn't need any arg now.
- xbps_repository_pool_sync: doesn't need any arg now.
- xbps_pkgdb_update: removed xbps_handle * arg.
- xbps_transaction_missingdeps_get: removed, missing_deps array is in
xbps_handle::transd("missing_deps") array object.
- Configuration file 'xbps-conf.plist' has been splitted off into
two files: conf.plist and repositories.plist. By default they
are stored in etc/xbps.
- Changed some members in xbps_handle struct, mostly to make it easy
to change its value in {cache,root}dir and conffile.
- Made xbps_init() release proplib objects as soon as we don't need
them, that way it uses 35% less of memory or in some cases even more.
There will be another commit that will implement to read new virtualpkg
settings by the user, as specified in:
http://code.google.com/p/xbps/issues/detail?id=12
Now to find a virtualpkg set by the user in conf file, there is a new
function: xbps_repository_pool_find_virtualpkg(). Use it in some
places to make jpeg -> libjpeg-turbo (and other pkgs that can be
replaced with other virtual pkgs) work correctly even if installed
multiple times.
There's no need to use calloc here because some members are being
initialized anyway, so fully initialize all members and skip the memset
syscall via calloc.
- xbps_repository_update_packages: return ENOENT if regpkgdb is NULL
(no packages currently registered).
- xbps_repository_update_packages: return EEXIST if no updates are
available.
- xbps_repository_pool: return ENOTSUP if no repositories were
registered.
- make xbps-{bin,repo} handle ENOTSUP errors.
In xbps_repository_pool_init, xbps_fetch_file() returns 1 when a file is
successfully fetched and that var was used to check for successful initialization.
- 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.

rename : LICENSE => COPYING
That means that the following functions were removed:
- xbps_set_{cachedir,flags,rootdir}.
- xbps_get_{cachedir,flags,rootdir}.
With this change fixed an obvious typo that made -c argument to not work,
and now the cache directory is an absolute path not relative to rootdir.
If the first registered repo couldn't be internalized, all other repositories
were also failing because it returned error, so simply skip them and return
error when all them cannot be internalized.
The patch adds 150 lines approximately. It is implemented by modifying
xbps_find_pkg_in_dict_by_name() and xbps_find_pkg_in_dict_by_pattern().
When no dictionary is returned if tries to find a virtual package by
looking at the "provides" array object, if found.
prop_dictionary_t xbps_repository_pool_find_pkg(const char *pkg, bool bypattern, bool best)
This function iterates over the repository pool and returns a pkg
dictionary matching its pkgname if "bypattern" is false, otherwise
if "pkg" matches the pkgdep pattern. If "best" is true, it will look
in all repos and will return the newer version, otherwise the first one
that matches the arguments specified.
With this addition supporting many small registered repos is cheap, because
it checks by-package rather than by-package-list. This also helped to removed
some duplicated code and fix some rare bugs.
Bump XBPS_RELVER to 20110118.
