This effectively checks that all pkgs in a transaction to be installed
or updated, have not unmatched shared libraries, which might happen with
pkgs that had major soname bumps.
This implementation slow downs xbps_transaction_prepare() 2x, due to
the use of xbps_pkgdb_get_pkg_metadata(). A new pkgdb format is required
that adds the pkg shlib-provides objects to pkgdb, avoiding the need
to use xbps_pkgdb_get_pkg_metadata().
Rather than collecting dependencies for a pkg that has been added to the
transaction dictionary, do this for all pkgs in transaction once all
packages are already there.
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_.
These are the core interfaces in the new API:
rpool - Interface to interact with the repository pool.
rindex - Interface to interact with repository indexes.
pkgdb - Interface to interact with local packages.
transaction - Interface to interact with a transaction.
This also brings new repository index format, making the index file
per architecture and being incompatible with previous versions.
The transaction frequency flush option has been removed, and due to
the nature of package states it was causing more harm than good.
More changes coming soon, but the API shall remain stable from now on.
- 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.
The replaces code now checks all package dictionaries in the
transaction dictionary, and the sorting algorithm will put packages
to be removed at the head of the tailq.
This should fix issue 11 in googlecode.
- 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.
