These routines return a xbps_array_t with a full sorted dependency graph
for the target pkg, by querying pkgdb or rpool.
Update xbps-query(8) to use the new libxbps API.
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().
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.
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.
- 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
- 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.
