xbps-0.58 (2020-02-01):
* libfetch: fix CVE-2020-7450; from FreeBSD. [duncaen]
* xbps-query(1), xbps-remove(1): improved detection
of orphans, needing multiple iterations to collect
all of them in a single transaction. [xtraeme]
* xbps-checkvers(1): added `-e, --removed`.
To list removed templates in srcpkgs. [Chocimier]
* xbps-install(1): improved `-D, --download-only`.
This now can be used to download all required
binary packages of the target pkg without the need
to have write permission to the `rootdir`.
$ xbps-install -c $PWD/cachedir -Dy xbps
NOTE: `-c, --cachedir` must be specified as absolute
pathname, otherwise it will treat it as relative to
rootdir. [xtraeme]
* xbps-fetch(1): added `-s` to print sha256sums of
downloaded files. [duncaen]
* configure: re-add `--enable-debug` and enable it
by default. [xtraeme]
* xbps-install(1): ignore indirect reverse dependencies
while updating xbps. [xtraeme]
* xbps-install(1): added `--reproducible` long option.
If set, enables reproducible mode in pkgdb. [xtraeme]
* xbps-rindex(1): stop adding the "build-date" pkg obj.
Contained wrong info and did not provide enough value
to be useful; another step towards reproducibility.
[xtraeme]
* xbps-create(1): always sanitize gathered symlinks. [xtraeme]
* xbps-install(1): do not silently update `xbps' on
any install/update transaction. If there's a new update
for the `xbps` package, this needs to be explicitely
declared as a single transaction, i.e:
$ xbps-install -u xbps
Otherwise it will return EBUSY (16), making this a proper
error code to diagnose what failed. [xtraeme]
* xbps.d(5): new 'noextract' configuration option,
to skip extracting files matching a pattern. [duncaen]
* xbps.d(5): autodetected 'architecture' (glibc or musl)
at compile-time on linux systems. [xtraeme]
* configure: added `--enable-lto` and don't enable it
by default. [xtraeme]
* Multiple bugs with packages on hold were fixed. [xtraeme]
* xbps-uchroot(1), xbps-uunshare(1): document end of
options argument. [Doan Tran Cong Danh]
* xbps-alternatives(1): prune obsolete alternatives groups. [q66]
xbps-0.57.1 (2019-10-27):
* Multiple changes and improvements to the transaction
