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

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
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.
1- We can cache the result of the first xbps_pkgdb_init() when it fails
and avoid the malloc/free/access from it.
2- We cache the uname(2) result into a private var in xbps_handle and
use it in xbps_pkg_arch_match().
This improves performance by ~5% approx and it's close as it was before
introducing the repository index format 1.5.
- xbps_repository_pool_find_pkg in best match case, now returns the
newest package version available in rpool.
- Added xbps_repository_pool_find_pkg_exact that returns a package
by exact matching a pkgver.
- Removed xbps_handle_alloc(), the user is free to use memory
allocated from heap or stack.
- Improved API documentation in preparation for 0.12.
Bumped XBPS_API_VERSION again.
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
- 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.

rename : LICENSE => COPYING
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.
This also makes xbps_unpack_binary_pkg follow this convention by avoiding
static variables.

branch : progress_callback
rename : bin/xbps-repo/util.c => bin/xbps-bin/util.c
- Rename regpkgs_dictionary to regpkgdb_dictionary to better describe what is is.
- Change some funcs in plist.c to return a boolean rather than int.
- Hide more internal funcs off the API.
- Simplify xbps_repository_update_pkg() and remove its second arg.
- Hide implementation details in xbps_repository_pool, now to iterate over the
pool you have to use xbps_repository_pool_foreach and its struct
repository_pool_index.
- Introduce xbps_{init,end}, to initialize/destroy some stuff in the library.
- Introduce xbps_dbg_printf to printf stuff for debugging purposes.
- xbps-{bin,repo}: added -d arg to enable debugging output.
- Before checking if a config file needs to be installed or such, check that
package contains the "conf_files" array.
- Remove obsolete dirs as well while updating packages.
- If transaction dictionary is ready remove the "missing_deps" array.
Bump XBPS_RELVER to 20101118.
