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.

xbps-0.8.0 (???):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{bin,repo): -c (cachedir) argument now is an absolute path and
|
|
not relative to the root directory.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed finally when a package should replace an installed package, but
|
|
at the same time the package to be replaced also needs to be updated
|
|
in the transaction. A real example:
|
|
|
|
- sg3_utils-1.28 is currently installed.
|
|
- Installed package udisks-1.0.2_1 depends on sg3_utils-1.28.
|
|
- sg3_utils-1.28 has been splitted into libsgutils for 1.31,
|
|
and libsgutils-1.31 has "replaces=sg3_utils<1.31".
|
|
- udisks-1.0.2_2 depends on libsgutils-1.31.
|
|
|
|
So now the old sg3_utils-1.28 package will be marked in its transaction
|
|
object as "remove" and the new sg3_utils-1.31 package as "update".
|
|
Therefore both packages (sg3_utils old/new) will be in the transaction
|
|
but one will be removed and the other one updated.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug that made all registered repositories to fail when the first
|
|
one couldn't be internalized in xbps_repository_pool_init().
|
|
|
|
* Added the concept of package properties in the API. At this moment
|
|
only one property is fully working, "virtual". When xbps-bin(8)
|
|
sets this property for a package, its virtual package list will be
|
|
set in the XBPS_REGPKGDB plist in a package dictionary and the matching
|
|
logic will always prefer its virtual packages over the real ones.
|
|
You can do wonderful things with this, like always using development
|
|
package versions, or simply customize what packages you want to
|
|
install rather than the default ones. As a real example, you can now
|
|
use the 'xbps-devel' package rather than the stable package version
|
|
'xbps' before installing the system and package dependencies will
|
|
still be resolved:
|
|
|
|
"$ xbps-bin set-prop virtual xbps-devel"
|
|
"$ xbps-bin install xbps-base-system"
|
|
|
|
Only packages that have the "provides" object are valid for the
|
|
"virtual" property.
|
|
|
|
* Moved the "replaces" handling logic into the API. But instead of
|
|
removing any package, the packages that should be replaced are
|
|
added into the transaction dictionary and marked as "remove".
|
|
The frontend is responsible to install, update, configure and remove
|
|
all packages by using the properties set in the transaction dictionary.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph: now parses the "provides" object in the package properties
|
|
metadata plist file for packages providing virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added -R option for the "remove" target, to recursively
|
|
remove packages that were installed automatically by the package(s)
|
|
that we want to remove, and no other package currently depends on.
|
|
This is much like the remove and autoremove targets together, i.e
|
|
"xbps-bin -yp remove foo && xbps-bin -yp autoremove".
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added -D option to only show the URLs to download the binary
|
|
packages required by the "install", "update" and "autoupdate" targets.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): make the list target (without arguments) only show
|
|
packages that are fully installed. Previously packages in unpacked
|
|
state were also shown.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for virtual packages. A virtual package is one that doesn't
|
|
exist in the repository, but other packages can provide it. A new array
|
|
in the package properties dictionary has been added to specify which
|
|
virtual packages the package supports. As an example, the `rsyslog'
|
|
package provides the virtual package `syslog-daemon-0'. Other packages
|
|
can depend in `syslog-daemon>=0' and `rsyslog' will satisfy the dependency.
|
|
|
|
* Merged the `progress_callback' branch that makes possible to specify a
|
|
function callback to update progress while unpacking binary packages
|
|
and while fetching files. xbps-bin(8) now reports a percentage while
|
|
unpacking package files if -v not set, otherwise it will list the
|
|
current extracted file with its size in bytes.
|
|
|
|
* Improved package dependency resolution in repositories by using a new
|
|
function, xbps_repository_pool_find_pkg() that returns a package dictionary
|
|
found in the first repository registered in the pool. It can also be used
|
|
to find the newest version found in all registered repositories.
|
|
|
|
* Improved package dependency sorting algorithm that uses less memory,
|
|
it is 60% faster approximately and as bonus sorts all packages in the way
|
|
they should be (previously the sorting was a bit different for packages
|
|
with no run-time dependencies).
|
|
|
|
* Many structural changes in the API. Made some stuff private and changed
|
|
some function arguments in the API, the ABI is not compatible anymore with
|
|
previous versions... anyway you shouldn't be using libxbps just yet.
|
|
The API documentation has been modified to stay in sync with reality.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.7.3 (2011-01-16):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug that made libxbps fail to detect properly configuration files.
|
|
This made all updates in configuration files to be lost.
|
|
|
|
* It is now possible to properly build against an external portable proplib
|
|
(with pkg-config support) and libfetch.
|
|
|
|
* Enabled a bunch of compiler warnings in the configure script (if supported
|
|
by the compiler), and made symbol visibility dependent of configure tests.
|
|
|
|
* Added --silent argument to the configure script, hiding compilation
|
|
details in the build process (disabled by default).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.7.2 (2010-12-28):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed some memleaks in libxbps and its clients, found by valgrind.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.7.1 (2010-12-23):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph: fixed small build error on x86 shown in buildbot tests.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_repository_pool_init(): don't loop forever if repository
|
|
pkg-index.plist files cannot be internalized.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_fetch_file(): set a 30 seconds timeout for transfers.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): fixed the 'genindex' target for the API changes in 0.7.0.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uhelper: fixed the 'unregister' target for the API changes in 0.7.0.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.7.0 (2010-12-15):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): implemented the 'find-files' target to print which packages
|
|
own a file, link, directory, etc. Analogue to the one implemented in
|
|
xbps-bin(8). Works for local and remote repository, fetching info on-the-fly.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a typo in the configure script that broke detection of strlcat(),
|
|
reported and patch provided by Min Sik Kim in issue 2.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added -F flag for the remove target. Unless it's set,
|
|
packages that are dependencies of other installed packages won't be removed.
|
|
This flag overrides this behaviour and forces the package removal.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{bin,repo}(8): indent uniformly all lines while listing packages
|
|
in xbps-bin or while searching for packages in xbps-repo.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): while searching for packages also try to find strings
|
|
in the short description object.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{bin,repo}(8): added -d arg to enable debugging output to stderr.
|
|
|
|
* While updating packages, obsolete directories are also removed when
|
|
necessary. This helped to remove some empty dirs for python 2.6 > 2.7
|
|
update, just to mention a real example.
|
|
|
|
* Cleaned up the API. Still not finished and there's a long way to have this
|
|
finished and ready for public consumption.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph: new utility to generate graphviz' dot(1) graphs for package
|
|
metadata properties, such as dependencies, reverse dependencies, etc.
|
|
Extracts the info from installed package metadata plist files.
|
|
|
|
* Performance improvements in libxbps and all utilities, by avoiding
|
|
unnecessary access(2) and chdir(2) calls while executing the
|
|
INSTALL/REMOVE scripts at pre/post (de)install time.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed some memleaks on libxbps found while working on the xbps-dgraph
|
|
utility.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.6.2 (2010-10-31):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_repository_unregister(): in remote repositories, also
|
|
remove the pkg index file and its directory.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_get_pkg_index_plist(): fixed a memleak.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): modify the 'list' target to accept an optional argument to
|
|
list packages in the specified state, so that you can list packages that
|
|
need to be purged, configured and broken (will be used in the future).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added a new target 'find-files' to find which installed
|
|
package(s) own a file. Exact matches "/bin/mount" or patterns
|
|
"/usr/lib/libb[ao]b\*" can be specified.
|
|
|
|
* When updating a package and removing obsolete files, don't forget to
|
|
remove those directories if they were empty.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.6.1 (2010-10-23):
|
|
|
|
* When replacing a package that is going to be updated in the transaction
|
|
do not remove it, just overwrite its files and continue. The updated
|
|
package will find that old files didn't match the SHA256 hash and will
|
|
skip them. This solves the issue of new package updates requiring new
|
|
dependencies with files that were previously stored in the old version.
|
|
For example gtk+-2.20 containing gdk-pixbuf, and gtk+-2.22 requiring
|
|
gdk-pixbuf externally.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.6.0 (2010-06-03):
|
|
|
|
* Synced libfetch code with NetBSD pkgsrc, updated to 2.31.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: improved xbps_get_file_hash() to mmap(2) rather than read(2)
|
|
the file we have to process. With mmap'ed files the hash can be
|
|
processed 5x faster than before, or even more in some cases.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: switch to OpenSSL SHA256 implementation and remove the one
|
|
previously used. It's faster and OpenSSL is required for libfetch so
|
|
there is not point in using it.
|
|
|
|
* Added strlcpy() and strlcat() from OpenBSD. Use them if they weren't
|
|
found by the configure script on the system.
|
|
|
|
* Added a configure script that emulates GNU autoconf but simplified, to
|
|
simplify customization for build options, flags, etc.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.5.2.2 (2010-05-18):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: do not forget to reset a variable to 0 when removing obsolete files
|
|
that are unexistent or its hash didn't match.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.5.2.1 (2010-05-18):
|
|
|
|
* Due to human error, last fix in 0.5.2 was completely wrong and the
|
|
INSTALL/REMOVE scripts were simply empty so ENOENT was returned, clearly
|
|
this is expected and shouldn't be ignored.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.5.2 (2010-05-18):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: while running INSTALL/REMOVE scripts, do not fail if a script
|
|
returns ENOENT but the script exists; that means the script did not match
|
|
the expected action on its switch statement and the fact can be simply
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: while upgrading packages and searching for obsolete files,
|
|
do not remove the files that did not match previous SHA256 hash. Also,
|
|
only remove obsolete dangling symlinks.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): fixed the 'genindex' target to not return error if any
|
|
package is already registered in the index.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): improved the 'search' target to also match substrings in
|
|
package/version tuples.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.5.1 (2010-05-12):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed build issues in RHEL5, Ubuntu and others distributions.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: changed the epoch component in version strings to the ':'
|
|
character to be differentiated from '-' in pkgname, and '_' in revision.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added a new target 'show-orphans' that list all package
|
|
orphans currently installed.
|
|
|
|
* Removed asciidoc build dependency, simply use the troff manpages.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.5.0 (2010-05-01):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): fixed the 'search' target to also match patterns against
|
|
its description, and not only from the package/version tuple.
|
|
|
|
* Cleaned up the code by using the LLVM's clang static analyzer, found
|
|
two possible NULL pointer dereferences in error branches and dead code.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added new flag '-p' for the 'remove' and 'autoremove'
|
|
targets, to also purge the package(s) after successful removal.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): print a warning when registering a repository that has
|
|
been already added previously.
|
|
|
|
* Add proplib-0.4.1 source and use it in XBPS. This is to avoid
|
|
an external dependency, so that we depend on the features of the
|
|
internal library. This also means that proplib is not required anymore.
|
|
|
|
* Added support to read/write gzip compressed plists by default, thanks
|
|
to proplib-0.4 that gained new functionality.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.4.1 (2010-02-28):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): fixed the install target to work with package names containing
|
|
multiple '-', thus resulting in incorrect package name.
|
|
[ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528212 ]
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): fixed printing of incorrect message for packages containing
|
|
the 'preserve' object in its props dictionary.
|
|
[ https://bugs.launchpad.net/xbps/bugs/528216 ]
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.4 (2010-02-01):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps, xbps-bin(8), xbps-repo(8): redirect all warning and error
|
|
messages to stderr.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: changes xbps_yesno() and xbps_noyes() to only accept "yes" or "no"
|
|
(case insensitive) answers rather than 'y' or 'n', to avoid mistaken answers.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): added support to the 'search' target to find exact matches,
|
|
i.e 'xbps-repo search bash'.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8) added support to the 'install', 'remove' and 'update'
|
|
targets to accept any arbitrary number of package names, i.e
|
|
"xbps-bin install foo blah baz".
|
|
See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/xbps/+spec/arbitrary-pkgname-args
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added support to the 'install' and 'update' targets to
|
|
accept package patterns, i.e "xbps-bin install 'foo<=3.0'.
|
|
See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/xbps/+spec/install-pkg-by-pkgmatch
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed some bugs while upgrading essential packages when new package
|
|
didn't have an INSTALL or REMOVE script and old package had them.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed some memleaks found by cppcheck and valgrind.
|
|
|
|
* Makefiles reworked to support parallel builds.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: many exported functions to the API are now internal and not
|
|
exported, because they were only used internally. The API is still not
|
|
finished and may be changed without notice.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: be more strict finding required metadata plist files in binary
|
|
packages. Now the code checks for the two required plist files to be at
|
|
index <= 4 and doesn't write any entry to storage until they aren't found.
|
|
|
|
* Added doxygen documentation for the API, enabled with BUILD_API_DOCS.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: synced libfetch code with NetBSD's pkgsrc, updated to 2.30.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): when downloading binary packages, it now sets default
|
|
libfetch cache connection limits, thus reusing connections to the same host.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uhelper: the 'fetch' target now accepts an arbitrary number of
|
|
arguments, and sets default libfetch cache connection limits.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): enable -f option for the 'purge' and 'remove' targets.
|
|
If set, files will be removed even if its hash doesn't match for the
|
|
'remove' target, and configuration files for the 'purge' target.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: if updating a package, always overwrite files while unpacking;
|
|
compare old and new files to remove obsoletes if necessary. This makes
|
|
the "essential" object in package dictionary unnecessary, because all
|
|
packages are treated as they were essential.
