Old interface is marked as deprecated:
int alpm_sync_target(char *target);
int alpm_sync_dbtarget(char *db, char *target);
int alpm_add_target(char *target);
int alpm_remove_target(char *target);
New recommended interface:
int alpm_add_pkg(pmpkg_t *pkg);
int alpm_remove_pkg(pmpkg_t *pkg);

Note that there is a behavior change here : if the same package name
appeared several times in the target list, the alpm_add_target interface
chooses the new package, while alpm_add_pkg returns PKG_DUP.
I don't see why we cannot unify the behavior of -S and -U, and just
choose one behavior that applies to both.
Otherwise, it's always possible to handle these different behaviors in
the frontend, it just requires more work.

This uses the new public functions to handle targets from the frontend,
like it used to be :
1) alpm_find_dbs_satisfier to find (optionally versioned) package or
provision
2) alpm_find_grp_pkgs to find members for a groups
3) alpm_add_pkg to finally add the pmpkg_t from 1 or 2
Of course, this adds more code to the frontend, but it completely
deprecates sync_target and sync_dbtarget interfaces.
This all-in-one interfaces felt wrong and left no control to the
frontend. A good frontend should just use alpm_add_pkg, with pkg coming
from alpm_db_get_pkg (for normal targets), alpm_find_dbs_satisfier (for
versioned provisions) or alpm_find_grp_pkgs (for groups).
This also opens the way to provide a better group handling in pacman
without constraint from libalpm and callbacks.
In ignore006, only the retcode changes, because no package was found to
satisfy the target (the only possible package is ignored).

This group function is meant to help group handling from frontend : it
scans all dbs, handling ignored packages and duplicate members (the
first repo where a member is found has the priority).

This new function is meant to deprecate all existing
sync/add target functions :
int alpm_sync_target(char *target);
int alpm_sync_dbtarget(char *db, char *target);
int alpm_add_target(char *target);
Rather than dropping these 3 interfaces, it might be better to rewrite
them using alpm_add_pkg for now.

This is a public interface for resolvedep. It looks nicer to expose it
this way rather than through sync_target.
This function can also be helpful for external tools as it should give
good results close to how pacman select a package for satisfying a given
dep.

If there are multiple providers in one db, pacman used to just stop at
the first one (both during dependency resolution or for pacman -S
'provision' which uses the same code).
This adds a new conversation callback so that the user can choose which
provider to install. By default (user press enter or --noconfirm), the
first provider is still chosen, so for example the behavior of sync402
and 403 is preserved. But at least the user now has the possibility to
make the right choice in a manual run.
If one of the provider is already installed, it is picked for
reinstall/upgrade, so that provision 002/003 pactest now pass.

We explicitly place 'pkgbase' (and used to place 'force') fields inside

This will make a 404 a silent failure that returns an error code rather than
0 as was previously done, screwing up the logic used by pacman/libalpm to

Clean up some of the code by doing less string copying and printing. This is
accomplished by either doing it after we know we need it, or taking
advantage of the fact that some strings never change such as the root
directory prefix. Also, fix an issue where a file at the root level (e.g.
/foobar) could not be queried.
End result is a much faster user experience when combined with the
mbasename() changes. These timings are for looking up 113 files in /etc/,
some of which are owned and some which are not.

Remove all logic dealing with PKG_MODIFIED as this rule no longer exists.

This makes things consistent with everywhere else we are incorporating the
new optional epoch field. Add a helper function that forms the version
string for you and use it in makepkg where I found 'pkgver.*-.*pkgrel'.
This exposes a few shortcomings in a previous "Override pkgver" patch
(2020e629) in the install package and check if built functions.
Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
Instead, go the same route we have always taken with version-release in
libalpm and treat it all as one piece of information. Makepkg is the only
script that knows about epoch as a distinct value; from there on out we will
parse out the components as necessary.
This makes the code a lot simpler as far as epoch handling goes. The
downside here is that we are tossing some compatibility to the wind;
packages using force will have to be rebuilt with an incremented epoch to
keep their special status.

Adapting from RPM, follow the [epoch:]version[-release] syntax. We can also
borrow some of their parsing code for our purposes (thanks!). Add some new
tests to our vercmp shell script tester for epoch comparisons, and then make
the code work with these newfangled epoch specifiers.
