There's no reason to make them absolute, simply store in the metadata the target file as is. This vastly simplifies the code and makes all test pass correctly.

xbps-0.44 (???):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): this now uses the code from libxbps to check the target file
|
|
of symlinks. This fixes some false positives with symlinks.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): relative target file of symlinks aren't converted to absolute
|
|
anymore. This just stores what the symlink points to, does not matter if
|
|
it's relative or absolute path.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: make sure that symlinks with relative target are detected and removed
|
|
properly. Fix #78: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/78
|
|
|
|
* xbps-checkvers(8): this now does not segfault anymore when the source package
|
|
does not set required variables (pkgname/version/revision). Added new test
|
|
cases to verify its correctness.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: globally check for unresolved reverse dependencies before accepting
|
|
the transaction. This catches more cases of broken packages due to incompatible
|
|
upgrades or unwanted removals. This also implements #46.
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/46
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): in the ownedby mode, do not follow symbolic links and if the
|
|
matching file is a symlink print its target file too:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -o `which whatis`
|
|
mdocml-1.13.2_5: /usr/bin/whatis -> /usr/bin/mandoc (link)
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): add additional actions to the column output: "downgrade"
|
|
and "reinstall", as well as current installed version and new version.
|
|
Implement https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/72
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: add packages on hold mode to the transaction, but just ignore them.
|
|
This way those are shown in the xbps-install(8) output and the user really
|
|
knows that there's a pending update that is not being applied.
|
|
Idea by @chneukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: make sure to remove the pkg metadata file if a pkg upgrade does not
|
|
own any file and a dependency replaces it due to moving files between them.
|
|
Added two new test cases to verify its correctness.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): --regex option now matches EREs in case insensitive mode.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: globally check for unresolved shared libraries before accepting
|
|
a transaction to make sure there's no broken packages.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: abort package unpacking as soon as a file failed
|
|
to be written and return a meaningful error; close #74
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/74
|
|
|
|
* Change the xbps utils to just check for the first character when it
|
|
asks for confirmation, rather than "yes" or "no". This implements issue #73.
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/73
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: use a sane umask(2) while unpacking package files from
|
|
binary packages (see https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/issues/835)
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph(8): the -m/--metadata option (default mode) is now properly
|
|
accepted. Regression introduced in 0.42.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,query}: the --repository argument now works with relative
|
|
paths for local repositories. The relative path is always converted to
|
|
absolute.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: the provides obj (array of strings) now fully expects exact
|
|
pkgver strings, such as `foo-1.0_1`. Incomplete components such as
|
|
`pkgname` or `pkgname-9` are not accepted anymore.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: detection of orphaned pkgs is now 66% faster (and even more in some cases).
|
|
This improves the performance of `xbps-remove -R` (recursively remove a pkg
|
|
and its dependencies) and `xbps-remove -o` (remove orphaned pkgs) marginally.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): only compile the ERE (Extended Regular Expression) once in
|
|
the ownedby and search modes. A performance improvement suggested by Christian Neukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: performance improvement for xbps_repo_get_pkg_revdeps(): when finding
|
|
the matching pkg, search for it in the current repository, not in the repository
|
|
pool.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.43.1 (2015-01-05):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression in virtual packages defined via xbps.d(5) introduced in 0.43.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.43 (2014-12-31):
|
|
|
|
* pcc >= 1.1.0 is now a supported compiler.
|
|
|
|
* xbps.d(5): the "virtualpkg" keyword now accepts pkgnames in the first component,
|
|
to match any virtual package version. Example:
|
|
|
|
`virtualpkg=foo:bar`
|
|
|
|
would match any version of the virtual package `foo' to be resolved as `bar'.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when resolving virtual packages in repositories, make sure to initialize
|
|
pkgdb to match any virtualpkg declared there. Regression introduced in 0.42.
|
|
|
|
* configure: build with -fstack-protector-strong if supported by the compiler,
|
|
and fallback to -fstack-protector otherwise.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): the `packaged-with` string obj is removed from pkgdb.
|
|
Since 0.42 that object is unnecessary and is being obsoleted.
|
|
|
|
* libfetch: fix races in the cache connection code.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.42 (2014-12-22):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-reconfigure(8): new option -i, --ignore to ignore packages
|
|
while performing configuration of all packages with -a, --all.
|
|
Fix #67 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/67)
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,query}: fix alignment in the column output mode
|
|
when pkgname is shorter than 4 chars. Fix #71 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/71)
|
|
|
|
* xbps.d(5): new manual page detailing the configuration settings.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph(8): added support to generate dependency graphs, repository
|
|
mode, prints results to stdout, supports most of the options available
|
|
in other utils, etc. This is now a first class utility.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,query}: added new option (-M, --memory-sync) to fetch and
|
|
store remote repository data in memory. That means that synchronizing
|
|
the repository archives with `xbps-install -S` is now completely optional.
|
|
This also means that `xbps-query(8)` may be used by any user without the
|
|
need to be the `superuser` to synchronize the repository archives.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,query}: added new option (-i, --ignore-conf-repos) to ignore
|
|
repositories defined in configuration files (xbps.d). Only repos specified
|
|
by the command line will be used (--repository).
|
|
|
|
* Implemented issue #69 (No way to set globally a custom architecture)
|
|
A new configuration keyword "architecture" has been added to override
|
|
the native machine architecture (uname -m).
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #68 "xbps_binpkg_arch() asserts if arch contains a dash"
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/68
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added --cat=FILE mode to print FILE stored in a binary package
|
|
to stdout. This works exactly as the --files mode: if the matching binary package
|
|
is not available in the cachedir, xbps will establish a network connection
|
|
to the target repository to get the contents of FILE on the fly.
|
|
|
|
* Get rid of repodata index-files, that contained all pkg files of a repository
|
|
in the archive. That file was so huge that incresed the repository archive
|
|
size by 8x. That means that `xbps-query -Ro` will now make N parallel connections
|
|
to the remote server to inspect the binary packages remotely; if the binary
|
|
package is in cachedir, no network connection to the remote server will be
|
|
established. This reduces the size of the main x86_64 repository (4000 packages)
|
|
to 700KB, compared to 4.5MB previously.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): fixed issue #64 "xbps-create(8) incorrect installed-size with hardlinks".
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/64
|
|
|
|
* Added a new configuration keyword "bestmatching", which expects "true" or "false"
|
|
and disabled by default. If enabled the pkg with the greatest version available
|
|
in all registered repositories will be choosen, rather than the first package
|
|
matching the expression. This keyword can be set in a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): added -d/--debug option.
|
|
|
|
* utils: the -C/--config option now expects a path to a directory storing
|
|
configuration files; if first character is not '/' it will be treated as
|
|
relative to rootdir.
|
|
|
|
* <sysconfdir>/xbps/xbps.conf is not longer installed, in fact there are no files
|
|
installed anymore to sysconfdir. The xbps.conf file with everything commented out
|
|
is now installed to <sharedir>/xbps.d/xbps.conf just as example.
|
|
|
|
* Replaced config/system {preserve,repo,virtualpkg}.d directories with a single
|
|
xbps.d directory that may contain configuration files of all kinds:
|
|
general options, repositories, virtual packages, and preserved files.
|
|
By default set to <sysconfdir>/xbps.d and <sharedir>/xbps.d:
|
|
|
|
- /usr/local/etc/xbps.d <- configuration directory
|
|
- /usr/local/share/xbps.d <- system configuration directory
|
|
|
|
Files bearing the same filename in the configuration directory override
|
|
those available in the system configuration directory.
|
|
|
|
* Virtual packages are now collected directly from pkgdb, that means
|
|
that installed packages do not need to have a virtualpkg configuration
|
|
file in the system virtualpkg.d directory.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,remove}: implemented a column/wide output mode
|
|
as requested in #63 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/63).
|
|
If the terminal has enough columns it will use this and falling back
|
|
to the previous mode otherwise.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: replaces the internal redundant dependency sorting step
|
|
that was made in xbps_transaction_prepare() with a simple implementation
|
|
that fixes 2 bugs and makes xbps 2x faster to resolve dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Packages that don't have "provides" obj but were declared as virtual packages,
|
|
were not detected correctly and lead me to rewrite this code.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #62 (Dup replaced pkgs in transaction); see
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/62
|
|
|
|
* If removing a package and euid==0 do not check for file owner, being root
|
|
means that all files can be removed properly. This fixes package removal
|
|
when some files were not owned by root, rather by a system account.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed 65 issues found by Coverity scan. Defect density is now below 0.30
|
|
per 1000 lines of code.
|
|
|
|
* Use atomic builtins if supported by the compiler in our portableproplib copy
|
|
to handle object reference counting. This should be cheaper than using a mutex.
|
|
|
|
* The manpages are now fully compliant with mdoc; thanks to mandoc -Wall.
|
|
|
|
* Added support to run the testsuite in place, without the need to perform
|
|
installation; use `make check` to run it.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.41 (2014-09-29):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: another bugfix while checking required shlibs in
|
|
reverse dependencies. Written another test case to verify its
|
|
correctness.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: rather than checking if user has write permission on
|
|
package files for removal, check if the files are owned by the
|
|
same user ID. This fixes a new issue where files with only the read
|
|
bit set cannot be removed. Added a new test case to verify its
|
|
correctness.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): xz compressed packages now use default compression
|
|
level (-6) rather than max level (-9); max compression level uses
|
|
too much memory and it's much slower; by Christian Neukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* Improvements for xbps bash completions, by Eivind Uggedal.
|
|
|
|
* A performance improvement for xbps_file_hash(), by Enno Boland.
|
|
|
|
* Added reverts field to package definitions. If defined, a package will
|
|
replace all versions specified in this field even if the installed version is
|
|
newer. This is helpful when a broken package is released. The maintainer can
|
|
downgrade this package and define a reverts field to the broken version. On
|
|
the next update xbps-install will automatically replace the broken release by
|
|
the new downgraded release.
|
|
|
|
* Replace xbps-packages directory by void-packages in xbps-checkvers(8),
|
|
xbps-uchroot(8) and others, by Enno Boland.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.40 (2014-09-18):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): handle xbps_transaction_prepare() returning ENOSPC, to
|
|
abort a transaction when there's insufficient disk space on rootdir.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): -S/--show mode no longer prints ANSI escape codes if stdout
|
|
is not a tty; suggested by @chneukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* Reduced considerably memory requirement when checking SHA256 hashes on
|
|
files. Previous way of allocating heap memory as big as the file being
|
|
processed wasn't a great idea.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{install,remove}: the post-install/pre-remove messages are now
|
|
printed with some guards, i.e:
|
|
|
|
"=================================================================="
|
|
" msg "
|
|
"=================================================================="
|
|
|
|
Without the need to add them manually to the {INSTALL,REMOVE}.msg files in
|
|
binary packages.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a heap overflow when printing post-install/pre-remove messages.
|
|
Noticed by Gottox.
|
|
|
|
* Updated zsh completion with more properties for xbps-query(8). Contributed
|
|
by Christian Neukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* Updated bash completion with more properties for xbps-query(8). Contributed
|
|
by Eivind Uggedal in #58.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.39 (2014-09-15):
|
|
|
|
* Updated bash/zsh completions for >= 0.38 with new features (Contributed by
|
|
Eivind Uggedal and Christian Neukirchen respectively).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex: fix -a/--add mode to create repodata archives with 0664 permissions;
|
|
and do not create a new archive if the file cannot be open/locked, error out
|
|
instead... otherwise the file lock is ignored.
|
|
|
|
* A minor build fix for the musl C library.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.38 (2014-09-14):
|
|
|
|
* Disabled best pkg matching code for performance reasons. When installing
|
|
or updating a package without any version component, the first repo containing
|
|
it wins. Previously the repository with the greatest version won. Use a specific
|
|
package expression to match packages in multiple repos, or switch the order
|
|
of the repos instead.
|
|
|
|
* Added bash completion for xbps-*. Contributed by Eivind Uggedal.
|
|
|
|
* Added zsh completion for xbps-* and xbps-src. Contributed by Christian Neukirchen.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added -s/--search local mode; local pkg queries are now possible.
|
|
|
|
* pkgdb-0.38 format: the pkgdb plist file now contains all pkg metadata objects
|
|
plus the pkgdb specific ones (automatic-install, install-date, metafile-sha256)
|
|
with the pkg files list being the exception. The pkgdb code will automatically
|
|
convert the pkgdb files to the new format the first time it's accesed.
|
|
|
|
This effectively implements a two phase upgrade, the first time to upgrade the
|
|
pkgdb format and the second one to execute the real operation.
|
|
|
|
The pkg metadata files stored in metadir (/var/db/xbps) now just contains its
|
|
pkg files list objects, everything else is stored in pkgdb. This allows libxbps
|
|
to speed up the process of checking for unmet shared libraries, among other things.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: added support to check pkg shlib-{provides,requires} objects for
|
|
all pkgs in the transaction to be updated. This will make impossible to update a
|
|
package to a newer version that contains incompatible shlibs used in its revdeps.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): -r/--remove-obsoletes is now ~5x faster.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-remove(8): -O/--clean-cache is now ~10% faster.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_repo_{open,close}() gained an additional argument to acquire/release
|
|
a POSIX file lock (see lockf(3)) to serialize write access to the repository
|
|
archive. This obsoletes the POSIX named semaphores that were used in xbps-rindex(8),
|
|
which only allowed to add/clean a repository per architecture, even if it
|
|
wasn't the same local repository!
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: the fetch code now is able to connect to HTTPS without the need of
|
|
/etc/services being available; We don't expect those ports to change anytime!
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uchroot(8) is now only built on linux, because it's not portable to other
|
|
Operating Systems.
|
|
|
|
* Added support to replace virtual packages when the package to be installed
|
|
matches a virtual pkgname, for example:
|
|
|
|
- nvidia is installed and provides the `libGL` virtual pkgname.
|
|
- libGL matches the virtual pkgname and therefore replaces the `nvidia` pkg.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added --fulldeptree long option to print a full dependency
|
|
tree for a package; this supersedes -xx which was broken since 0.37.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fix a segfault with -Rf when there's no network connectivity.
|
|
Reported by Gottox.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uchroot(8): do not remount / unnecessarily; just mount it as private
|
|
and nosuid once; this is enough for our use cases.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): --show/-S mode now explicitly prints pkg metadata keys
|
|
with the bold ANSI escape code.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): --search --property now works with <integer> objects, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -s '' -p filename-size
|
|
|
|
* xbps-remove(8): -O/--clean-cache no longer triggers an assertion when the
|
|
cache directory is empty.
|
|
|
|
* Implemented support to preserve existent on-disk files, by always ignoring
|
|
the pkg content if the file has been matched. Details here:
|
|
https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/51
|
|
|
|
The new "preserve" keyword can be used in the xbps configuration file, as well
|
|
as for the system and configuration directories:
|
|
|
|
- <rootdir>/usr/share/xbps/preserve.d
|
|
- <rootdir>/etc/xbps/preserve.d
|
|
|
|
Full path to a file or globbing can be used:
|
|
|
|
- preserve=/usr/bin/blah
|
|
- preserve=/etc/blah/*.conf
|
|
|
|
* Always preserve files that exist on disk, but are managed by a package.
|
|
When such condition ocurrs install the pkg configuration file as `file.new-<version>`.
|
|
This fixes GH issue #50 https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/50.
|
|
|
|
* Implemented support for post-install and pre-remove messages, as explained
|
|
in issue #44 https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/44.
|
|
|
|
xbps-create(8) will read the {INSTALL,REMOVE}.msg files and will add its contents
|
|
into the `{install,remove}-msg` data objects on its metadata plist file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): added support to list packages that will be downloaded, if those
|
|
were available in a remote repository and were not in the cache directory.
|
|
|
|
* Before accepting a transaction, xbps now checks if there's enough free space
|
|
on the target rootdir (on disk) to proceed with the operation. In code terms,
|
|
xbps_transaction_prepare() now returns ENOSPC if the size of the transaction
|
|
exceeds the size of the free space. Close issue #7.
|
|
|
|
* When installing or updating packages, now proper statistics are generated
|
|
when a binary package from a remote repository exists in the cachedir,
|
|
and when a package has the "preserve" property.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: return ENXIO and a meaningful error message if a package that is
|
|
going to be installed or updated has invalid dependencies, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-install --repository=$HOME/repo -n foo
|
|
ERROR: foo-1.0_1: can't guess pkgname for dependency '>=invalid-spec_1'
|
|
Package `foo' contains invalid dependencies, exiting.
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
This fixes #43 (xbps-install: unhelpful message for invalid dependency)
|
|
submitted by Dominik Honnef.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed a new issue with packages that provide/replace the
|
|
same virtual package that is going to be replaced. The issue could be
|
|
reproduced easily by installing any awk package (gawk, mawk, or nawk),
|
|
which are providing/replacing the "awk" virtual package.
|
|
|
|
* libfetch: synchronized with NetBSD pkgsrc/libfetch.
|
|
|
|
* libfetch: add support for TLS SNI (Server Name Identification) from NetBSD, with
|
|
some minor debug changes. This fixes GH issue #41 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/41).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.37 (2014-06-06):
|
|
|
|
* Enabled syslog logging by default, may be still disabled via xbps.conf.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for system and configuration virtualpkg directories.
|
|
|
|
The system virtualpkg directory set to <rootdir>/usr/share/xbps/virtualpkg.d contains
|
|
virtualpkg configuration files (.conf/.vpkg) that can be overrided by the admin
|
|
in <rootdir>/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d bearing the same file name.
|
|
|
|
This obsoletes the "virtualpkgdir" keyword support from the xbps configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for system and configuration repository directories, as
|
|
explained in GH #39 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/39).
|
|
|
|
The system repository directory set to <rootdir>/usr/share/xbps/repo.d contains
|
|
repository configuration files (.conf) that can be overrided by the admin
|
|
in <rootdir>/etc/xbps/repo.d bearing the same file name.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): new option `-t, --tags` to specify a list of tags
|
|
(categories) the package should be part of. This is just for metadata
|
|
purposes and querying packages by tags in the future.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): it's possible now to update a single package (if it's already
|
|
installed) without using the -u, --update option. This implements

GH #35 (https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/35).
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-install [-f] -y foo
|
|
|
|
- if foo is installed, update it.
|
|
- if foo not installed, install it.
|
|
- if -f is set, reinstall or downgrade it.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): new option (-S, --show) which shows info of a package
|
|
installed locally or in a repository with -R. This is the default mode
|
|
if no other mode is set; to preserve compatibility with previous versions.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): new long option "--regex" that can be used in the
|
|
"ownedby (-o, --ownedby)" and "search (-s, --search)" modes to match
|
|
Extended Regular Expressions against package properties.
|
|
|
|
This allows you to find packages by matching EREs in package properties,
|
|
for example to find out what packages were built between 2014-05-23 and
|
|
2014-05-25:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query --regex -s 2014-05-2[35] -p build-date
|
|
...
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* Imported portable proplib 0.6.4 from https://github.com/xtraeme/portableproplib.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a new issue with virtual packages, if a pkg provides a virtual package
|
|
that is already installed but with lesser version, do not update to it
|
|
unnecessarily (in some cases results in a crash).
|
|
|
|
* A new object is now recorded in the pkgdb to see the origin repository of
|
|
which a package was installed from, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query --property=repository-origin pkg
|
|
...
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* xbps-remove(8): the -n,--dry-run option does not acquire the pkgdb file lock
|
|
anymore, so that any user can use this mode even without write permission to
|
|
the target pkgdb.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-remove(8) -O, --clean-cache is now multithreaded. Gives a performance
|
|
boost as the number of threads increases.
|
|
|
|
* xbps.conf: the keyword "include" now supports file globbing, so that multiple
|
|
small configuration files can be included directly, i.e:
|
|
|
|
include=/etc/xbps/repo.d/*.conf
|
|

|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fixed a segfault with '-Rf' if pkg is in the repository data
|
|
and its binary package does not exist.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.36 (2014-04-21):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: the dependency solver is now able to detect and ignore invalid
|
|
dependencies of a package that are depending on itself, either as real
|
|
or virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uchroot(8): a manual page has been created.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): the -n,--dry-run option does not acquire the pkgdb file lock
|
|
anymore, so that any user can use this mode even without write permission to
|
|
the target pkgdb.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fix a segfault with '-vL' for local unsigned repositories.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): new option --compression to specify a compression format;
|
|
defaults to xz.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-checkvers(8): new utility merged from https://github.com/xdave/xbps-src-utils
|
|
that is able to check which packages are outdated in the XBPS repositories or
|
|
a rootdir by comparing them against a xbps-packages repository.
|
|
Written by xdave and improved by myself.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.35 (2014-04-01):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uchroot: new utility merged from xbps-packages/xbps-src that
|
|
bind mounts and chroots to a target directory. This is a setgid binary
|
|
that must have correct owner/group to work correctly.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): fixed a bug while signing repositories in that sometimes
|
|
the PEM RSA public key buffer contained unwanted garbage.
|
|
|
|
* Make sure that required root symlinks in void are never removed or detected
|
|
as obsoletes; added new test cases to stress the code works as expected.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.34 (2014-03-26):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): search mode now accepts -p/--property argument to match patterns
|
|
against the stored package object in repositories. Any object stored in the repository
|
|
index can be used to be matched against to; the posibilities are countless:
|
|
|
|
- find out what packages are mantained by a person
|
|
- find out what packages are built at a specific date
|
|
- find out what packages are linked to a specific shared library
|
|
- etc etc etc
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): in local mode now prints all objects stored on its pkgdb entry
|
|
and its metaplist.
|
|
|
|
* Fix #34 (xbps-uhelper fetch fails to download files from https://alioth.debian.org).
|
|
The issue is that this HTTP server returns 406 (Not Acceptable) when the HTTP
|
|
header does not contain the "Accept" field (see
|
|
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=712261 for more info).
|
|
Our libfetch code now always adds "Accept: */*" in the HTTP headers.
|
|
|
|
* Added some debugging in error paths when performing a transaction.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an issue where in a transaction a package with wrong version was being
|
|
configured resulting in ENOENT. The configure phase now only uses the package
|
|
name to perform the configuration rather than using package name/version tuple.
|
|
|
|
* Pass another argument to package scripts with the native machine architecture
|
|
(uname -m), which can be overrided via XBPS_ARCH environment variable too.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.33 (2014-03-11):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph: fixed a segfault if rootdir wasn't set:
|
|
issue #33: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/33
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uhelper now supports downloading files with a defined destination.
|
|
The syntax of fetch is "URI>FILENAME". So if you call
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-uhelper fetch "http://foobar.com/foo.tar.gz>bar.tar.gz"
|
|
|
|
the output file will be named "bar.tar.gz". Contributed by
|
|
Enno Boland (Gottox).
|
|
|
|
* Rather than performing a pkgdb write per package being unpacked, configured,
|
|
or removed, issue the write only once after the transaction phase has finished.
|
|
|
|
* While checking file permissions for package files removal, make sure
|
|
to not dereference symbolic links, because a symlink might point to
|
|
a file in the rootfs, which won't have the same uid/gid.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #31: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/31
|
|
|
|
* New configuration file format with a custom C parser, simpler
|
|
and does not need any additional external dependency. confuse is
|
|
not necessary anymore.
|
|
|
|
* Only allow a single writer to the pkgdb to avoid concurrency issues
|
|
when performing multiple write transactions (install, update or remove).
|
|
Processes that cannot acquire the lock will get an EAGAIN error.
|
|
|
|
* Do not continue the transaction if downloading a binpkg/signature file
|
|
has failed for some reason, stop and return error immediately.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.32 (2014-02-21):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in xbps_pkgpattern_name() where a string with some special
|
|
chars would result in a crash (reported by Gottox).
|
|
|
|
* Do the package removal in two phases: the first phase checks the
|
|
user has write permission to the entries being removed, if this
|
|
succeeds then the package removal is performed.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-remove(8): -O now also remove obsolete pkg signatures from
|
|
cachedir, and ignores pkgs of other architectures.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): set correct permissions to the POSIX semaphore
|
|
by clearing file permission bits before its creation.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.31 (2014-02-01):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): use a POSIX named semaphore in modes that can modify
|
|
repository data archive, to avoid concurrency issues.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed an issue with errno(3) propagation that lead to
|
|
ENOMEM errors when resolving dependencies.
|
|
|
|
* Removed 0.27 compat from repodata.
|
|
|
|
* If a repository has been signed previously respect its settings
|
|
in repodata (unless there were new changes). This allows us to
|
|
accomplish the following:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-rindex repo/*.xbps
|
|
$ xbps-rindex --sign ... repo
|
|
$ xbps-rindex repo/new-pkg.xbps
|
|
|
|
... and repository is still signed after updating repodata.
|
|
|
|
API/ABI incompatible changes, you've been warned :-)
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): -c [clean] mode now is fully multithread safe.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a double free while downloading binpkgs from remote repositories
|
|
(reported by Hanspolo).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.30 (2014-01-28):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #30: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/30
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #29: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/29
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #28: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/28
|
|
|
|
* When reinstalling a package (or downgrading) also check for obsolete
|
|
files and remove them if it's needed.
|
|
|
|
* When reinstalling a package (or downgrading) make sure to also respect
|
|
its installation mode (automatic or manual).
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug where in some cases valid symlinks in a package were not removed
|
|
(just dangling symlinks were removed).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.29 (2014-01-09):
|
|
|
|
* Added XBPS_ARCH environment variable to override tha native architecture
|
|
(uname(2) machine). This allows us to use "fake" architectures, for example
|
|
to use packages built for a different C library.
|
|
|
|
* Miscellaneous fixes to make XBPS work with the musl C library.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #27: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/27
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.28 (2014-01-03):
|
|
|
|
* Implemented Per package RSA signatures, replacing the repository index
|
|
signature from 0.27. There's now a `<binpkg>.sig` file with the RSA signature
|
|
for any pkg in a repository; the signature files are generated by `xbps-rindex(8)`.
|
|
|
|
* Implemented on-demand repository access: repositories are registered into
|
|
a private queue only on first access and not unconditionally.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #26: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/26
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): -o (local ownedby mode) does not print directories;
|
|
it's unnecessary anyway because xbps never extracts empty directories.
|
|
|
|
* The `--repository` option in xbps-install(8) and xbps-query(8) now adds
|
|
the repositories at the top of the list, rather than overriding the list
|
|
specified in a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #25: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/25
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #24: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/24
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.27 (2013-11-29):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: make sure that base symlinks in the root directory are never removed,
|
|
due to /usr switch in Void. This will also be harmless in other systems.
|
|
|
|
* The testsuite now contains more tests than ever and will be extended as new
|
|
issues appear.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #20: https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/20
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #19: https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/19
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #18: https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/18
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue #6: https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/6
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): also understands the XBPS_PASSPHRASE environmental variable to
|
|
supply the passphrase when signing repositories.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): added -v --verbose option.
|
|
|
|
* Support for RSA signed repositories. A repository can be signed with your
|
|
preferred RSA key (any ssh key works) as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-rindex --sign --signedby "foobar <foo@bar>" --privkey /priv/key /path/to/repo
|
|
|
|
Public keys must be imported before using a remote signed repository thru
|
|
the xbps-install(8) utility:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-install -S
|
|
|
|
Starting from now on all remote repositories must be signed and verified.
|
|
Local repos do not need to be signed and they will work as before.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.26.2 (2013-10-30):
|
|
|
|
* unpack: apply correctly permissions and mode to existent files if the those files
|
|
in the archive are modified compared to what it's currently on disk.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.26.1 (2013-10-25):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uhelper: added new action "real-version" that only prints the version
|
|
of an installed real package in a rootdir, not virtual.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.26 (2013-09-25):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): the `-D --defrepo' argument has been superseded by
|
|
`-R --repository=<url>' argument. (issue #17).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): added support to specify multiple repositories with
|
|
`--repository=<url>`. For consistency with `xbps-query(8)' use the same
|
|
syntax as it were an optional argument. (issue #17).
|
|
|
|
This overrides the repository list in a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added support to specify multiple repositories with
|
|
`--repository=<url>`. This also enables repository mode; the argument is
|
|
optional and can be used to specify desired repositories. (issue #17).
|
|
|
|
This overrides the repository list in a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Re-added all metadata package objects to the repository index, this avoids
|
|
remote connections when querying packages from remote repositories. This also
|
|
speeds up 'xbps-src' when using remote repositories as well.
|
|
|
|
* A C99 compiler is now required due to the use of for loop initializers.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed #14 from github: "Removing recursively does not respect manual installation
|
|
mode for dependencies". See https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/14
|
|
for more information.
|
|
|
|
* Removed "PackagesOnHold" from xbps.conf. This has been replaced by a new mode
|
|
in xbps-pkgdb(8):
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-pkgdb -m <hold|unhold> <pkgname>
|
|
|
|
To list packages that are currently on hold mode use xbps-query(8):
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -H
|
|
|
|
* On terminals with 0 columns, assume 80. Xen's PV guest running Linux and its
|
|
hvc console does report 0 columns/rows.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: introduce xbps_{array,pkgdb}_foreach_cb_multi() which are
|
|
multithreaded implementations to process N items of an array spawning
|
|
1 thread per core. This makes XBPS use threads when possible on
|
|
multi-core CPUs.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: removed the following unused API functions:
|
|
|
|
- xbps_pkgdb_foreach_reverse_cb()
|
|
- xbps_callback_array_iter_reverse()
|
|
- xbps_callback_array_iter_reverse_in_dict()
|
|
- xbps_callback_array_iter()
|
|
- xbps_callback_array_iter_in_dict()
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): make -L list all repositories in the configuration file, even
|
|
the non working ones and print -1 in them. Closes issue #11 from github.
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -L
|
|
-1 /mnt/foo
|
|
-1 /blah/foo
|
|
2619 /mnt/xbps_builder/host/binpkgs
|
|
16 /mnt/xbps_builder/host/binpkgs/nonfree
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fixed some memleaks in local and repository owned mode.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fix regression in -R, also print repository string object.
|
|
|
|
* Do not abort transaction if updates for conflicting packages are in
|
|
the transaction due to checks of reverse dependencies in virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.25 (2013-07-05):
|
|
|
|
* Added support to validate reverse dependencies when updating packages.
|
|
Such example would be updating pkg X to 2.0 when an installed package
|
|
depends on pkg X < 2.0; abort transaction when such condition is
|
|
detected; this also works with virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* Dropped requirement of confuse when using the libxbps API.
|
|
|
|
* Dropped support for external libfetch and proplib; the included copies
|
|
are always used unconditionally. libxbps now provides a wrapper for
|
|
proplib prefixing all symbols with xbps_ rather than prop_.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: only read virtual pkg config files when looking for a virtual
|
|
package, not unconditionally and at xbps_init() time.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: optimize repo/rpool code by reusing existing data returned by previous calls.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed two memleaks.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: reduced memory usage on 64bit platforms by using 32bit types, which
|
|
is really enough to be used in loop indexes (deps, revdeps, etc).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-dgraph: completely updated to the new pkgdb format/API.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added support to find reverse dependencies in repository mode
|
|
for virtual packages, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -RX xserver-abi-input
|
|
xf86-input-evdev-2.8.0_1
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
* Use a single zlib compressed file to store repository data `<arch>-repodata`.
|
|
This will allow us to extend repositories with more metadata if needed, and
|
|
simplifies the API. This is just the starting point to add PGP signatures.
|
|
The struct xbps_rindex has been replaced by xbps_repo, thus, the major
|
|
libxbps SONAME has been bumped to 2.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): correctly calculate target file for relative symlinks.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): removed old code that isn't needed anymore in the 'check' mode.
|
|
This fixes issue #9 (https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps/issues/9).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.24 (2013-05-02):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): added -f, --force flag to forcefully register a package even
|
|
if an entry of the same package already exists on the index.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.23 (2013-04-19):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): the default repository (-R) now overrides any repository
|
|
set in a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): in clean mode (-c) also remove obsolete entries from index-files,
|
|
which were not matched due to different tests.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in the transaction dictionary that reported wrong sizes
|
|
in total-removed-size and total-installed-size objects or even empty values
|
|
in some cases.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): initialize setlocale so that utf8 files can be archived.
|
|
The locale must be utf8 capable for this to work. Fixes issue #5 from github.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fix a use-after-free in state cb when a binpkg doesn't match its
|
|
hash with the hash stored in repo index.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-uhelper: the 'version' target now also matches virtual packages, which
|
|
is a requirement for xbps-src.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.22 (2013-03-23):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): a new option --build-options has been added to add a string
|
|
with the build options that were used in package. It's expected to be filled
|
|
by xbps-src automatically.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): make -o (ownedby) follow symlinks. Fix issue #4 from github.
|
|
This works in local and repository mode.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): if effective user/group is the same than files being
|
|
packaged in a package, set user/group to root:root. This way we don't
|
|
have to depend in an external tool to assume proper permissions (fakeroot).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fix segfault when showing unexistent package files.
|
|
|
|
* When checking for obsolete files in upgrades, ignore unexistent files in
|
|
current package; this was hitting an assertion due to this.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.21 (2013-03-11):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: improved code to find obsolete pkg files in upgrades. Now the code
|
|
compares the whole file list between current and new package. A test has been
|
|
added to the kyua testsuite to test its correctness.
|
|
|
|
* Imported Portable proplib 0.6.3 from http://code.google.com/p/portableproplib.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): a full dependency tree can now be shown in the
|
|
show-deps mode, by specifying -x twice (--show-deps), e.g:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -xx perl
|
|
glibc>=2.8_1
|
|
gdbm>=1.10_1_1
|
|
glibc>=2.8_1
|
|
libdb>=4.8.24_1
|
|
glibc>=2.8_1
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* New repository index format (1.7): unnecessary and redundant objects
|
|
have been removed that are already stored in package metadata files.
|
|
This means that xbps-query(8) in repository mode will now fetch package
|
|
metadata from the binary package and not from index. Only necessary objects
|
|
for the transaction and searching are kept.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): new option -u --update to update the pkgdb format to
|
|
the latest available. Do not forget to run it after updating xbps to 0.21.
|
|
|
|
* New pkgdb format: redundant objects have been removed (empty run_depends,
|
|
pkgname, version) and it is now a dictionary. The pkgdb file has been
|
|
renamed to "pkgdb-0.21.plist" to make future upgrades easier to
|
|
handle/update.
|
|
|
|
* configure: misc tweaks to allow building with the musl C library.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): packages can be matched by using virtual package
|
|
names in repository mode, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -Rp pkgver ntp-daemon
|
|
ntp-4.2.6p5_7
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): new option -m --mode to change package installation
|
|
mode to auto (might be detected as orphan) or manual
|
|
(explicitly installed).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): the search mode (-s, --search) now is able to find
|
|
packages by matching virtual package strings, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-query -s cron-daemon
|
|
[-] cronie-1.4.9_1 Runs specified programs at scheduled times
|
|
[-] dcron-4.5_18 Dillon's lightweight cron daemon
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): changed short option -M (--list-orphans) to -O; which
|
|
seems more appropiate to use.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when resolving deps in transaction, ignore incorrect ones;
|
|
for example a package might be depending on itself thru virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: workaround a bug (found by pancake) when updating a package
|
|
that is being replaced by a virtual package.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fully remove packages with broken symlinks; previously if a
|
|
broken symlink was there (readlink returning ELOOP), package wasn't
|
|
removed.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: ignore packages conflicting themselves, which can happen with
|
|
virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fix issue #3 from github
|
|
"xbps-query -o only works for installed packages".
|
|
|
|
The behaviour has been changed for all modes and to explicitly get
|
|
info from repositories the -R flag must be used; otherwise it will
|
|
use local packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): the -f, --force flag will now preserve configuration
|
|
files if they were modified, and only unpack files that have been
|
|
modified when re-installing packages. If -f is specified twice (-ff)
|
|
all package files will be overwritten from new package.
|
|
|
|
* Fix regression in xbps_fetch_file() when fetching files from HTTP
|
|
servers that don't provide us enough details (file length, mtime, etc).
|
|
|
|
* Fix regression introduced in b9136c61c95698a5dafbc69ee9cd873110c68e45,
|
|
breaking package conflicts detection.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): removed the -s,--skip-sync option; the new -S,--sync
|
|
option makes this redundant and useless.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): added -S,--sync option to synchronize remote repository index
|
|
files; can be combined with -u or used exclusively.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.20 (2013-01-24):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): fix crash in -r (remove-obsoletes mode) if pkg cannot
|
|
be removed (permissions or file disappeared).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-install(8): don't treat EEXIST as an error when installing
|
|
new packages; technically it's not an error.
|
|
|
|
* libfetch: added a patch to fix select(2) timing out when fetching
|
|
from some https servers.
|
|
|
|
* libfetch: merged version 2.34 from NetBSD/pkgsrc.
|
|
|
|
* configure: changed some options to '--enable-foo':
|
|
|
|
--enable-static
|
|
--enable-api-docs
|
|
--enable-debug
|
|
--enable-tests
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed a stupid typo that made it to skip executing the
|
|
"pre-remove" action in installed packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): new long options: --shlib-provides and --shlib-requires,
|
|
to add list of required and provided shared libraries in a package.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.19.1 (2012-12-22):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when a package has not been configured and there's an update
|
|
in transaction, libxbps incorrectly tried to ignore the update and
|
|
configure this package. Fix this by not ignoring the update even if
|
|
package has any state.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): -l, --list-packages option now prints pkg state as follows:
|
|
|
|
STATE PKGVER DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Where STATE can be any of the following package states:
|
|
|
|
ii = installed
|
|
uu = unpacked
|
|
hr = half-removed
|
|
?? = unknown
|
|
|
|
* xbps-reconfigure(8): fixed regression introduced in 0.19 when processing
|
|
all packages with '-a, --all'. Found by pancake.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.19 (2012-12-15):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): add mode (-a) does not remove old binary packages
|
|
in repository anymore, only its entry in index is replaced. To remove
|
|
outdated packages use -r/--remove-obsoletes.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): clean (-c) and remove obsoletes mode (-r) are
|
|
now multithreaded and will spawn a thread per core to speed up
|
|
the process considerably.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-pkgdb(8): -a, --all mode is now multithreaded and will
|
|
spawn a thread per core to process a fraction of pkgdb.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): hardlinks can be added and archived correctly.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-rindex(8): in clean mode (-c), entries with unmatched hashes
|
|
are now removed from index.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for dynamic generation of reverse dependencies for
|
|
installed packages. pkgdb no longer keeps track of them statically.
|
|
A new object must be present in pkgdb for this to work in fast mode,
|
|
which is available if 'xbps-pkgdb(8) -a' is run; otherwise the
|
|
fallback mode will be used which is a bit slower.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): added support to specify any of the three supported
|
|
methods to match package expressions:
|
|
|
|
- by package name (foo)
|
|
- by exact package version (foo-2.0_1)
|
|
- by package version comparators (foo>2.1<2.5)
|
|
|
|
* Multiple API/ABI changes to improve performance; The libxbps SONAME
|
|
major has been bumped to 1. This helped to fix some regressions
|
|
introduced in 0.18 and really simplifies the API.
|
|
|
|
* New repository index format (1.6). The index files are now dictionaries
|
|
that won't allow to add duplicate entries; also the files are now
|
|
"architecture" dependent and only packages for target arch and
|
|
noarch will be registered on it.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.18.1 (2012-11-26):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed execution of pre/post install/remove scripts due to using old
|
|
package version after unpacking a package being updated.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): fixed catching reverse dependencies in some packages
|
|
that used version comparators such as "foo<X" or "foo>X<Y".
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.18 (2012-11-23):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-query(8): implemented support to know reverse dependencies
|
|
in repository mode; that means you can now exactly what packages
|
|
require the target package from all registered repositories.
|
|
|
|
* The virtual package configuration files are now read dynamically
|
|
by libxbps at initialization time from default configuration directory:
|
|
<rootdir>/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d. Only files that end in ".conf" will
|
|
be processed by libxbps.
|
|
|
|
* The rootdir (with -r, --rootdir) can now be specified as relative path.
|
|
|
|
* Structured pkg metadata stored on disk, and added new functionality:
|
|
|
|
- A single plist containing pkg properties, files and
|
|
INSTALL/REMOVE scripts added as prop_data(3) objects.
|
|
|
|
- pkgdb's pkg dictionary now contains a sha256 hash to know if the
|
|
plist from metadir has been modified.
|
|
|
|
- prop_data(3) objects can be seen with xbps-query(8) --property.
|
|
|
|
- pkg plists are now kept in <metadir>/.<pkgname>.plist.
|
|
|
|
- In a future revision libxbps could make a backup of pkgdb and
|
|
plist files in metadir before a transaction is committed.
|
|
|
|
Users must run 'xbps-pkgdb [-r <rootdir>] -a' to upgrade pkg metadata
|
|
to the 0.18 format.
|
|
|
|
* Shell wildcard patterns (fnmatch(3)) can now be used in the
|
|
PackagesOnHold configuration option.
|
|
|
|
* New utilities replacing xbps-bin(8) and xbps-repo(8):
|
|
|
|
- xbps-install(8): to install and update packages.
|
|
- xbps-pkgdb(8): to report and fix errors in pkgdb.
|
|
- xbps-query(8): to query packages and/or repositories.
|
|
- xbps-reconfigure(8): to (re)configure packages.
|
|
- xbps-remove(8): to remove packages.
|
|
- xbps-rindex(8): to handle local repositories.
|
|
|
|
* While reconfiguring packages do not flush pkgdb unless it's necessary.
|
|
|
|
* While unpacking files from binpkg also check if any symlink has been
|
|
modified, if true unpack it. If an entry has no changes and file mode
|
|
or uid/gid differs apply new perms and mode from new pkg.
|
|
|
|
* When registering a pkg to pkgdb make sure to remove unneeded meta objs
|
|
from its pkg dictionary. Also add a check to xbps-bin(8) to remove those
|
|
objects if found.
|
|
|
|
* Improved finding and removing obsolete files after upgrading a package
|
|
in a transaction. Any obsolete link (not just dangling links) and
|
|
configuration files are now removed if they are obsoletes.
|
|
|
|
* Add support to resolve exact dependencies such as "foo-1.0_1".
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in the dependency sort code that in some cases and due to
|
|
virtual packages added duplicate matches and broke the dependency order.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now checks the target file in relative
|
|
symlinks, or multiple levels of symlinks.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): fixed an assertion that happened when resolving the
|
|
target file of a symlink, which was unexistent because the real file was
|
|
provided by another pkg. In this case just keep the target file as is.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.17 (2012-10-02):
|
|
|
|
* Package metadata files and pkgdb plist are now stored uncompressed.
|
|
This improves performance when those files store large chunks of data.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed "packages on hold". Regression added in 0.16.2.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): fixed crash in the 'search' target when the terminal has
|
|
been resized, reported by pancake.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8), xbps-repo(8): added a new flag -B to set default repository
|
|
to install packages, in case xbps.conf couldn't be found.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-create(8): a new utility to create XBPS binary packages; package
|
|
files must be installed to a directory prior to executing this utility.
|
|
|
|
* configure: if compiler supports PIE and RELRO, enable them by default.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'show-deps' target does not show the repository from
|
|
the matching target package, just the list of dependencies.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'search' target now shows which packages are currently
|
|
installed "[*]" or not installed "[-]".
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): a new target has been added: 'remove-obsoletes'. This removes
|
|
obsolete packages found in a local repository; obsoletes are packages not
|
|
registered in repository's index.
|
|
|
|
* configure: fixes for Ubuntu, which uses ld(1) --as-needed by default and
|
|
some function tests were failiing due to this.
|
|
|
|
* configure: added "--with-static" and if enabled, the static executables
|
|
will also be built and installed. By default it's disabled.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'genindex' target has been replaced by the 'index-add' and
|
|
'index-clean' targets. The 'index-add' expects a list of binary packages to
|
|
be added to repository's index:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-repo index-add /path/to/repo/*.xbps
|
|
|
|
The 'index-clean' removes obsolete entries in repository's index:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-repo index-clean /path/to/repo
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16.5 (2012-07-14):
|
|
|
|
* xbps.conf: remove obsolete remote repositories.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: extend the list of ignored symlinks in rootfs if they were found
|
|
as obsoletes at package upgrade time.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: at package register time a new string object in pkgdb is added
|
|
"install-date" that records the package installation date with the following
|
|
strftime(3) format: "%F %R %Z".
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'show' target now prints some objects from pkgdb if found:
|
|
"install-date" and "automatic-install".
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16.4 (2012-07-10):
|
|
|
|
* Imported proplib 0.6.1 from http://code.google.com/p/portableproplib.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when finding obsolete files also match against sha256, not
|
|
just the filename. Also ignore symlinks found in rootfs to make
|
|
the system transition to /usr fully work.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16.3 (2012-07-04):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed a regression in 0.16.2.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16.2 (2012-07-04):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed 2 bugs while updating packages.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: after removing a pkg the state cb was passing dangling pointers in
|
|
its pkgname and version members.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16.1 (2012-06-30):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): fixed a regression in the 'genindex' target. It was looking
|
|
at wrong repository subdirectory when removing obsolete files.
|
|
This also fixes issue 24 from googlecode.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.16 (2012-06-20):
|
|
|
|
* Added support for package conflicts. If any conflicting pkg has been found
|
|
in a transaction, xbps_transaction_prepare() will return EAGAIN and
|
|
the array object "conflicts" in transaction dictionary must be inspected
|
|
to know what conflicts have been found.
|
|
|
|
* Always require an underscore at package versions, if any provided
|
|
pkgver (i.e 'foo-1.0_1') does not contain an underscore the name/version
|
|
won't be detected for a string. That means that now any package can contain
|
|
any character in pkgname and all characters in version except hyphens ('-'),
|
|
and as bonus there's no need to make some tricks to perform installation
|
|
of exact package versions.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'install' target now can (re)install an exact package
|
|
version as specified on its arguments, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-bin install foo-1.0_1
|
|
|
|
If that version is not available no other version will be installed.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): 'genindex' target is now able to remove binary packages
|
|
when a greater version exists on the index.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): 'sync' target now is able to sync just a single repository
|
|
by passing the repository URI as argument, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-repo sync http://xbps.mirror.org/repo
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): 'pkg-list' target now expects the repository URI than
|
|
the index number, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-repo pkg-list http://xbps.mirror.org/repo
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): -n flag (dry-run mode) now also prints the pkg architecture
|
|
as last component and if the transaction reason supports it.
|
|
|
|
* Repository index format 1.5. The files are now named properly:
|
|
index.plist for XBPS_PKGINDEX and index-files.plist for XBPS_PKGINDEX_FILES.
|
|
The difference in XBPS_PKGINDEX is that now a single plist file can store
|
|
all metadata from any package with any architecture. XBPS_PKGINDEX_FILES
|
|
has been modified to speed up 'xbps-repo find-files'. That means
|
|
that in xbps.conf now you'd only have to use the directory where the
|
|
index.plist is stored, i.e:
|
|
|
|
/path/to/my/repo <- 1st repository
|
|
|-- i686
|
|
|-- index-files.plist
|
|
|-- index.plist
|
|
|-- noarch
|
|
|-- nonfree <- 2nd repository
|
|
| |-- i686
|
|
| |-- index-files.plist
|
|
| |-- index.plist
|
|
| |-- noarch
|
|
| `-- x86_64
|
|
`-- x86_64
|
|
|
|
Any other directory not named "noarch" or "$(uname -m)" must be specified
|
|
as another different repository, such case is "nonfree" or any other with
|
|
unmatched names.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): new flag: -S which syncs rpool indexes before executing
|
|
the "dist-upgrade", "install" or "update" targets.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: renamed xbps_repository_pool_xxx to xbps_rpool_xxx
|
|
(API/ABI incompat changes).
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: extended rpool with a new function:
|
|
xbps_repository_pool_find_virtualpkg_conf. This function will match
|
|
a virtual package as was specified in configuration file. That means
|
|
that the find_xxx functions now do exactly what the API documents.
|
|
While resolving packages, the order to look for them is the following:
|
|
|
|
find_virtualpkg_conf -> find_pkg -> find_virtualpkg
|
|
|
|
If no virtual pkg from conf matched, look for a real pkg, otherwise
|
|
use the first virtual package from rpool that matches our pattern.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: introduce the concept of "soft replace". When a package
|
|
contains that boolean object set in pkg's metadata props.plist,
|
|
some steps will be skipped at remove time for the package being
|
|
replaced: its files won't be removed and the post action in REMOVE
|
|
file won't be executed.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: change the order in which package files are removed:
|
|
|
|
current: files, conf_files, links, directories.
|
|
previous: links, files, conf_files, directories.
|
|
|
|
This is required to avoid removing working symlinks, which could be
|
|
owned by another installed package. Now only dangling symlinks are now
|
|
removed.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when removing package files and if metadata files.plist wasn't
|
|
found, do not error out and rather just continue until the package is
|
|
fully removed.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): renamed "autoupdate" target to "dist-upgrade" and
|
|
"autoremove" to "remove-orphans". For compatibility with previous
|
|
versions the old targets are still kept, but will be removed in future
|
|
releases.
|
|
|
|
* Added support to put packages "on hold". Packages on hold
|
|
won't be updated by system upgrades even if there is a newer version.
|
|
The configuration string list "PackagesOnHold" in xbps.conf expects
|
|
a list of package names.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): miscellaneous cosmetic improvements while unpacking
|
|
package files and add a counter for the 'check all' target.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): new target: 'clean'. This removes obsolete binpkgs
|
|
from cachedir, either because the binpkg is not available in repository
|
|
pool anymore or because its sha256 hash doesn't match with the
|
|
one matched in repository index file.
|
|
|
|
* Miscellanous API cleanups (API/ABI incompat changes).
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.15 (2012-04-06):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): a new test for the 'check' target to find stale entries
|
|
in 'requiredby' package metadata object from pkgdb.
|
|
|
|
* When reinstalling existing packages (xbps-bin -f install), make sure
|
|
to remove previous entry in the "requiredby" pkgdb's array object.
|
|
|
|
* When sorting required dependencies make sure that a pkg with
|
|
required version is taken into account, not just the first
|
|
one matching its pkgname.
|
|
|
|
* When resolving required dependencies also find the best pkg
|
|
available in repository pool. Thanks to dave for testing!
|
|
|
|
* Started a test suite for libxbps. Tests are written for Kyua
|
|
(http://code.google.com/p/kyua) and can be built and installed
|
|
with the --with-tests configure option, by default will be installed
|
|
to EPREFIX/tests but can be overriden with --testsdir. ATF 0.15
|
|
(part of Kyua) is required to build the test suite.
|
|
|
|
* Enabled assertions by default even if --debug not enabled. We want
|
|
to enforce correct behaviour even in release builds.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue 22: "Updating a package doesn't set correct perms when
|
|
file not modified". When extracting package files, always set
|
|
permissions from binary package, even if file has not been modified.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.14 (2012-02-28):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed 'xbps-bin reconfigure all' (regression added in 0.13).
|
|
|
|
* While resolving dependencies check if required dependency is matched
|
|
with any virtual package already added in transaction, on match use it.
|
|
|
|
* Only accept binary packages compressed in gzip, bzip2 and xz formats.
|
|
Profiling tests showed that libarchive wasted a considerable amount of
|
|
time checking if archive was compressed in zip format.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8): redirect some more warnings/errors to stderr.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.13.0 (2012-02-20):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: skip checking for obsolete files if a package in a transaction
|
|
replaces another one that is going to be updated. In such cases that means
|
|
new package now owns some files previously owned by the package to be
|
|
updated, therefore the updated package must not check for obsolete files.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the `show', `show-deps' and `show-files' targets now accept
|
|
package patterns, i.e "xbps-repo show 'foo>=2.0'". If only a `pkgname`
|
|
has been specified, the newest package available in repositories will be
|
|
shown.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): print meaningful help usage, added -h option.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): print a meaningful help usage, added -h option.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed xbps_transaction_install_pkg return value if package
|
|
is already installed: this must be EEXIST not ENODEV.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.12.0 (2012-02-06):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin: new dry-run mode (-n) to show the actions that would
|
|
be executed in a transaction. This mode takes effect in the
|
|
autoremove, autoupdate, install, remove and update targets. Example:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-bin -n install kernel-snapshot
|
|
<pkgname> <install|remove|update|configure> <version> <repository> <filename>
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
The format is "%s %s %s[ %s %s]\n" for `pkgname', `action', `version',
|
|
`repository' and `filename' (optional).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin: the install target will now install the best package
|
|
version available in repository pool if just package name has
|
|
been specified, otherwise the first repository matching the
|
|
specified pattern wins, i.e:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-bin install foo 'blah>=1.2<2.0'
|
|
|
|
* Massive pkgdb API rototill. The xbps-uhelper command gained support
|
|
for the 'updatepkgdb' target which will migrate old pkgdb
|
|
format to the new 0.12 format. ALERT: make sure to execute
|
|
"xbps-uhelper -r <rootdir> updatepkgdb" to update to the new 0.12
|
|
pkgdb format before installing/removing/updating any package.
|
|
|
|
* Repository index 1.4: the file is now externalized to a proplib array
|
|
and has been renamed to "rindex.plist" to not break compatibility
|
|
with previous XBPS versions. This helps in simplifying the API
|
|
implementation substantially.
|
|
|
|
* Added a pkg-config file to simplify writing code with libxbps.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: improved support for finding newest package versions available
|
|
in repository pool.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: added support for finding exact package name/version matches
|
|
in repository pool.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed registering repositories with trailing '/' chars in
|
|
configuration file: xbps.conf.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'genindex' target now creates a plist file to cache
|
|
all files provided by binary packages in a repository. This makes
|
|
the 'find-files' target marginally faster, because this avoids having
|
|
to fetch data from network in remote repositories. The new file
|
|
'index-files.plist' will be downloaded every time the 'sync' target
|
|
is issued but only iff the file has been modified.
|
|
This fixes Issue 21 "`xbps-repo find-files` is awfully slow".
|
|
|
|
* It's now possible to fetch files thru xbps_fetch_file() from HTTP
|
|
servers that don't set the Content-Length header. This fixes issue 19:
|
|
"xbps-src cannot fetch source with unknown Content-Length" reported
|
|
by ojab.
|
|
|
|
* Renamed some options in xbps.conf to not have dashes, such as:
|
|
fetch-timeout-connection -> FetchTimeoutConnection
|
|
fetch-cache-connections-host -> FetchCacheConnections
|
|
fetch-cache-connections-per-host -> FetchCacheConnectionsPerHost
|
|
|
|
* Implemented memory caching for regpkgdb and configurable transaction
|
|
flushing. Can be changed in xbps.conf with "TransactionFrequencyFlusing".
|
|
By default set to 5. That means that every 5 packages processed in
|
|
a transaction there will be a regpkgdb plist flush to disk.
|
|
|
|
Setting it to 0 enables automatic mode which will only flush in
|
|
two required points. Setting it to 1 makes the behaviour used in XBPS<=0.11,
|
|
which flushed it on every package.
|
|
|
|
That feature provides a 25% (and in some cases even more!) of performance
|
|
when executing a transaction.
|
|
|
|
* Merged purge code into remove. It wasn't necessary to have this splitted,
|
|
so it now has been merged into xbps_remove_pkg(). That also means that
|
|
'-p' flag in xbps-bin(8) and xbps-repo(8) doesn't exist anymore.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'find-files' target accepts multiple patterns, such as:
|
|
$ xbps-repo find-files /bin/cat '/bin/f*' ...
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'find-files' target accepts multiple patterns, such as:
|
|
$ xbps-bin find-files /bin/cat '/bin/f*' ...
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'search' target accepts multiple patterns, such as:
|
|
$ xbps-repo search 'foo-[0-9]*' '*blah*' ...
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: more paranoid type checking and allocation results, to make
|
|
sure that out of memory conditions are handled gracefully.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.11.0 (2011-12-20):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): it is possible now to reinstall a package even if it's
|
|
installed with the '-f' option. If reinstalling the same package version,
|
|
only unexistent files or files not matching its hash will be extracted.
|
|
|
|
* While unpacking a binary package, always check that file to be extracted
|
|
exists on filesystem, if true and its hash is matched, skip extraction.
|
|
|
|
* While installing a package always preserve configuration files if they
|
|
exist, but if hash don't match rename configuration files to
|
|
<filename>.old.
|
|
|
|
* New shared configuration file via libconfuse that replaces the
|
|
plist configuration files: xbps.conf. That means that libxbps
|
|
now requires confuse >= 2.7 available at
|
|
http://www.nongnu.org/confuse/.
|
|
|
|
* Support for syslog logging common operations, such as install, update,
|
|
remove and purge via LOG_NOTICE, and errors with LOG_ERR.
|
|
By default it's always enabled, can be disabled thru the conf file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): new target: pkg-list [index]. This target will list all
|
|
packages from repository with index [index]. If optional argument
|
|
[index] (decimal) not set, all repositories will be used.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when registering new packages, existing entries in
|
|
requiredby matching the same pkgname/version touple are now
|
|
simply skipped.
|
|
|
|
* Repositories with missing index file are now simply ignored.
|
|
It's expected that user executes 'xbps-repo sync' to fetch the
|
|
index for all remote repositories specified in configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Faster binary package unpacking. Only files and symlinks are now
|
|
extracted from binary packages, thus directories are not extracted
|
|
anymore. The package builder is responsible to create required
|
|
directories where appropiate and set correct permissions.
|
|
While being here, some stuff is skipped now if a package uses the
|
|
"preserve" keyword or package is being installed, resulting in a
|
|
faster operation.
|
|
|
|
* Implemented "New repository scheme and configuration file" from issue 16.
|
|
The plist index file has been renamed to "index.plist", version bumped
|
|
to 1.3. The configuration file (repositories.plist) now expect the full
|
|
path to the directory storing the index.plist file. This will allow us
|
|
to use other directories (such as non-free, or alike) for such purpose.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: improve xbps_purge_pkg() in case that the process was
|
|
unexpectedly interrupted, do not error out unless the unregister
|
|
phase returns an error value.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when unpacking a package that replaced another package
|
|
due to virtual packages, preserve its configuration files if
|
|
they already existed.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8): new flag '-o' (option). This can be used
|
|
in the 'show' target to print only a set of objects stored in package's
|
|
properties dictionary, example:
|
|
|
|
$ xbps-bin -olicense show xbps
|
|
Simplified BSD
|
|
$ xbps-bin -oversion,build_date show xbps
|
|
0.10.1
|
|
Wednesday 26 October, 2011, 14:37:31 UTC
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
* libxbpps: when fetching new pkg-index.plist from a repository,
|
|
make sure that it's a plist file and can be internalized; otherwise
|
|
remove downloaded file and return error.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): new test for the 'check' target to fix missing
|
|
entries in requiredby array, i.e reverse dependencies in
|
|
the package database plist.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now works virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: failed to properly match installed virtualpkgs that were
|
|
dependencies in a transaction, therefore resulting in real packages
|
|
being reinstalled and replacing installed virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.10.1 (2011-10-26):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed multiple free(3) calls in error paths (via closedir(3))
|
|
when some virtualpkg plist file couldn't be internalized.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): 'remove' with recursive flag (-R) now removes first
|
|
the specified packages and puts its automatic dependencies at the
|
|
tail of the array.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_pkgpattern_{name,version} now return expected
|
|
pkgname/version if pattern is a shell wildcard pattern (fnmatch(3)).
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: removed csh alternate code from the NetBSD's match code.
|
|
We weren't using this code anyway and this only slowed down
|
|
xbps_pkgpattern_match().
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.10.0 (2011-10-21):
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue 11 "xbps-bin fails to update properly some pkgs".
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/xbps/issues/detail?id=11
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now is able to detect if a package
|
|
was installed manually and other packages are currently depending
|
|
on it and change its mode to "automatic", i.e as dependency of those
|
|
packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8), xbps-repo(8): the -C flag now expects a path to a
|
|
directory where the configuration files (conf.plist and
|
|
repositories.plist) are stored.
|
|
|
|
* New configuration scheme for virtual packages as defined in
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/xbps/issues/detail?id=12
|
|
|
|
XBPS now reads all plist files in PREFIX/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d.wants
|
|
directory with settings for the wanted virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* New configuration scheme as defined in
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/xbps/issues/detail?id=12
|
|
|
|
A directory to store XBPS configuration files is now used, by default
|
|
set to PREFIX/etc/xbps. Configuration options are now set via
|
|
conf.plist, and repositories in repositories.plist.
|
|
|
|
* It is possible now to reinstall packages that provide virtual packages
|
|
and put it back the original package, such as jpeg <-> libjpeg-turbo
|
|
multiple times, without loosing important objects set when the
|
|
original package was installed, i.e reverse dependencies and
|
|
automatic installation. This is a requisite to really make a system
|
|
that can be fully customizable and restored back to its original
|
|
state with the virtual packages feature.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issue 10 "HTTP repositories in non standard HTTP port currently segfault".
|
|
You can now use any HTTP server in non standard ports, such as:
|
|
|
|
http://yourhost:8080/your/repo
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now detects broken symlinks and marks
|
|
them as critical errors.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: when updating packages, only files that have been modified
|
|
(compared to current installed file) are now unpacked. This should
|
|
save some writes to storage and make the process a bit smoother as well.
|
|
|
|
* Moved install transaction code to libxbps. The API has been extended
|
|
with xbps_transaction_commit() which expects the transaction dictionary
|
|
as its argument. This function will execute transaction tasks, like
|
|
removing, updating, installing and configuring packages as defined
|
|
in the transaction dictionary.
|
|
|
|
* The 'cachedir' option in configuration file now can be changed to
|
|
be relative to the rootdir if the first character is not '/'. The
|
|
-c flag in xbps-bin(8) still expects a full path and if set, overrides
|
|
the setting in configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'show', 'show-deps' and 'show-revdeps' targets now
|
|
work with virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: fixed NetBSD's dewey matching code to properly identify
|
|
that a version X.Y.Z should be greater than X.Y_Z.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: revamped virtual package handling. The public API find
|
|
functions (xbps_find_pkg_*) don't know anything about virtual packages.
|
|
To find virtual packages the xbps_find_virtualpkg_* functions must be
|
|
used instead of the "classic" ones.
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: the xbps_find_foo_in_array functions have been renamed
|
|
to xbps_match_foo_in_array because its task is only matching against
|
|
the provided package name, package pattern or string.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.9.1 (2011-07-15):
|
|
|
|
* libxbps: xbps_repository_pool no longer loops forever if a package
|
|
index plist file cannot be fetched due to network problems, or
|
|
if the file is not available anymore; the repository will be
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'genindex' failed to register in pkg-index
|
|
packages less than on equal than any other package providing the
|
|
same package name. Ignore packages providing virtual packages.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'genindex' target now removes entries in existent
|
|
package index files for unexistent packages that were previously
|
|
registered (removed, not enough permissions, etc).
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'genindex' target creates required directories
|
|
in local repositories if it's necessary.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-repo(8): the 'search' target now matches patterns in
|
|
case insensitive mode.
|
|
|
|
* A bug has been fixed while updating a package and another package
|
|
providing a virtual package with a greater version was available
|
|
in repositories. Only accept this if the virtual package is explicitly
|
|
enabled in the "virtual-packages" section in the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.9.0 (2011-07-08):
|
|
|
|
* configure doesn't require a zlib package with a pkg-config file, to
|
|
workaround some distribution that don't provide it (hi Ubuntu!). Rather
|
|
it now checks for a required function. Fixes issue 6 in googlecode.
|
|
|
|
* The configuration file now accepts a new option "fetch-timeout-connection",
|
|
to specify the limit to wait (in seconds) of timed out connections when
|
|
fetching files. It's set to 30 in configuration file, and if not set it
|
|
also defaults to 30 seconds.
|
|
|
|
* The configuration file now accepts new options to change rootdir
|
|
(same than -r in xbps-bin(8)), cachedir (same than -c in xbps-bin(8))
|
|
and fetching cache connection limits. If settings are specified via
|
|
the flags -r and -c in xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8), they are prefered
|
|
over the ones in the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed some bugs with virtual packages, to not adding duplicate package
|
|
dictionaries in the transaction dictionary.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8): the 'show-files' target now prints the target
|
|
file on symlinks, i.e: "/sbin/foo -> /sbin/blah".
|
|
|
|
* Changed the package pattern match code to the one available on NetBSD.
|
|
It's much better and provides more alternative pattern matching options.
|
|
|
|
* A new configuration file in plist format to specify repositories and
|
|
virtual packages has been created, defaults to "/etc/xbps-conf.plist".
|
|
That means that you no longer need to register/unregister repositories;
|
|
just add your favourite local or remote repository and the first time
|
|
XBPS needs to access the pkg-index file it will be downloaded.
|
|
|
|
More options and properties will be added to the configuration file in
|
|
the future. By default we use the official public remote repository,
|
|
and "dcron" package for a cron daemon package.
|
|
|
|
The ABI/API is not compatible anymore with previous versions, you've
|
|
been advised :-)
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): the 'check' target now also checks for modified symlinks,
|
|
and warns if any of them has been modified. For this to work, the package
|
|
metadata files.plist should contain the 'target' object in the 'links'
|
|
array (created automatically by xbps-src since 20110531).
|
|
|
|
* Improved repository package index format (v1.2). The index now contains all
|
|
package objects, so that it's not necessary to fetch info from binpkgs.
|
|
The file will also be a bit bigger, but not to worry about.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.8.1 (2011-05-27):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8)/xbps-repo(8): more meaningful messages when a package couldn't
|
|
be found in the show, show-deps and show-files targets, rather than exiting
|
|
silently with only the error return value.
|
|
|
|
* Added three new objects for the package props.plist metadata file to
|
|
specify homepage, license and build date.
|
|
|
|
* Minor improvements to the generation of API documentation.
|
|
|
|
xbps-0.8.0 (2011-05-24):
|
|
|
|
* xbps-bin(8): added -A and -M options, for setting package install reason
|
|
to automatic or manual. Obviously both cannot be used togeter.
|
|
|
|
* xbps-{bin,repo}(8): -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 lists current extract files
|
|
with its size in bytes if -v flag is set.
|
|
|
|
* 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.
