struct xbps_handle::conffile has been renamed to confdir, and it now
expects the path to a directory, where the configuration files are
stored.
Change xbps-bin(8) and xbps-repo(8) along with its manpages to mention
that -C expects a directory.
- XBPS now expects to read individual virtual pkg settings from
.plist files in PREFIX/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d.wants.
This really implements the missing part in issue #12 in
googlecode: http://code.google.com/p/xbps/issues/detail?id=12
- 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.
This for example fixes reinstalling jpeg and libjpeg-turbo multiple
times. Also if the "automatic-install" obj is in the pkg to be
replaced, copy it to the new pkg to be preserved.
Bumped XBPS_API_VERSION.
Reverse dependencies weren't respected when replacing a pkg with
another pkg that is providing a virtual pkg for the former.
This resulted in reversedeps being completely lost when new pkg
is installed.
- 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.
- 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.

It should be provided in the proplib dictionary with key 'automatic-install'.
This fixes a regression not respecting the 'automatic-install' value stored
in regpkgdb.
Two new booleans were added to struct xbps_handle: install_reason_{auto,manual}.
The backend is able to force auto or manual installation for a package (and
dependencies that were installed/updated) by setting to true any of those
booleans. Bump XBPS_RELVER.
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.
This structure sets up function callbacks for fetching files and
unpacking binary packages, as well as setting the debug boolean.
This way the affected functions (xbps_fetch_file() and
xbps_unpack_binary_pkg()) do not need to accept the fn cb pointers
and data as arguments.
Bump XBPS_RELVER.
A new function xbps_find_virtual_pkg_in_dict() has been made public
to the API to make this find duplicate packages in the transaction
when updating packages.
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.
