The system virtualpkg directory set to <rootdir>/usr/share/xbps/virtualpkg.d contains
virtualpkg configuration files (.conf/.vpkg) that can be overrided by the admin
in <rootdir>/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d bearing the same file name.
This obsoletes the "virtualpkgdir" keyword support from the xbps configuration file.
The system repository directory set to <prefix>/share/xbps/repo.d contains
system repository configuration files (.conf) that can be overrided by the admin
in <sysconfdir>/xbps/repo.d bearing the same file name.
- Rather than using a POSIX named semaphore use a POSIX lock (lockf(3))
for pkgdb for writers. Writers that cannot acquire the pkgdb lock will
get EAGAIN rather then being blocked.
- Due to using a file lock we cannot write the pkgdb every time a package
is being unpacked, configured or removed. Instead pkgdb is only written
at the end of a specific point in the transaction (unpack, configure, remove)
or via xbps_pkgdb_unlock().
The variables to set cachedir, rootdir and metadir have been
changed to "array of chars", this way there are no extra allocations.
Update clients accordingly and bump API version.
- Repository keys are now stored in a new directory on metadir (/var/db/xbps):
<metadir>/key>
- Repository keys are stored with the hex fingerprint of its RSA
public key in a plist dictionary:
<metadir>/keys/xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.plist
- Drop xbps-rkeys(8) and merge its functionality into xbps-install(8) and
xbps-query(8).
- xbps-query(8) -vL now shows some more details of remote repositories:
3134 http://localhost:8000 (RSA signed, verified)
Signed-by: Void Linux
4096 60:ae:0c:d6:f0:95:17:80:bc:93:46:7a:89:af:a3:2d
16 http://localhost:8000/nonfree (RSA signed, verified)
Signed-by: Void Linux
4096 60:ae:0c:d6:f0:95:17:80:bc:93:46:7a:89:af:a3:2d
Bump XBPS_API_VERSION.
To put a package on hold mode:
$ xbps-pkgdb -m hold foo
To unhold the package:
$ xbps-pkgdb -m unhold foo
To list packages on hold mode:
$ xbps-query -H
This also close#12 from github.
The list of required external deps is now confuse, libarchive and openssl.
libxbps now includes a wrapper for proplib prefixed with xbps_ rather than prop_.
Instead a two stage approach is necessary when packages for target arch
are installed:
- XBPS_TARGET_ARCH=arch xbps-install foo <- only unpack
- xbps-reconfigure -a <- configure natively or via an emulator
