It is possible to throw EINTR from a system call such as open(), close(), or
waitpid() if custom signal handlers are set up and they are not initialized
with the SA_RESTART flag. This was noticed by Andreas Radke when ^C (SIGINT)
was given during the call to waitpid(), causing it to throw the EINTR error
and we could not accommodate it.
Simply wrap these calls in a simple loop that allows us to retry the call if
interrupted.

Probably a tweakable "lockdb-retry" option was planned which is not
implemented. (Now it should be implemented in front-end.)
So now this variable was unused and caused a small memleak.
(FREE(dir) was not reached in case of error.)

Due to differences in handling va_list between i686 and x86_64, this bug
can only be seen on x86_64. va_list usage is not allowed but we had been
getting away with it. See

We were using the stat() system call in quite a few places when we didn't
actually need anything the stat struct returned- we were simply checking for
file existence. access() will be more efficient in those cases.

Using the graph structures that Nagy set up for dependency sorting, we now
do a similar process for deltas. Load up all of the deltas into a graph
object on which we can then apply Dijkstra's algorithm, using the new weight
field of graph struct.
We initialize the nodes weight using the base files that we can use in our
filecache (both filename and md5sum must match). The algorithm then picks
the best path among those that can be resolved.
Note that this algorithm has a few advantages over the old one:
1. It is completely file agnostic. These delta chains do not have to consist
of package files- this could be adopted to do delta-fied DBs.
2. It does not use the local_db anymore, or even care if a package or file
is currently installed. Instead, it only looks in the filecache for files
and packages that match delta chain entries.

test_delta_md5sum and test_pkg_md5sum were simple wrappers to test_md5sum,
and only used once, so not very useful. I removed them.
Also, test_md5sum and alpm_pkg_checkmd5sum functions were a bit duplicated,

Fix for FS#9176.
A previous commit (6e8daa553b) already forced all database files to 644.
Now the directories are also forced to 755.
Additionally, repo-add now sets the umask to 022, just like makepkg does, to
fix the problem at its root.

For example, if the cachedir is a broken symlink or a non writable
directory, pacman fallbacks to /tmp/. Just before doing that, it freed the
handle->cachedirs list twice !
once in _alpm_filecache_setup, and once in alpm_option_set_cachedirs. So the
first one was removed.
Fixes FS#9186.
Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>
By attempting to stat the cachedir when we load the pacman config, pacman
bails out if it is a non-existant directory, even if it will never be
needed. This is unfortunate as it is only used for sync transactions anyway.
Instead, wait until we need it in _alpm_filecache_setup to actually do
anything.

Legacy code is hitting the trash here. Remove unnecessary _alpm_time2string
time storage abstraction in favor of just writing the time_t value to the

The only drawback is that everyone's sync DBs will have to be updated at

Commit b55abdce7a introduced an lstat wrapper

Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
Linux lstat follows POSIX standards and dereferences a symlink pointing
to a directory if there is a trailing slash. For purposes of libalpm, we
don't want this so make a lstat wrapper that suppresses this behavior.

A bunch of changes related to my first "real" install of pacman-git into
/usr/local and trying to use it.
* Shift some uses of free -> FREE in libalpm.
* Move stat and sanity checks of config paths into libalpm from the
config and argument parsing in pacman.c.
* Fix issue where dbpath still was not defined early enough due to its
requirement for being used in alpm_db_register. This should be rewritten
so it doesn't have this dependency, but this will work for now.

In order to best resolve bug 6404, move some cachedir handling stuff out of

I previously introduced some patches to make just about every path in

This change allows us to use all autoconf specified paths, most notably

lockfile (this can now be specified at configure time by setting the
$localstatedir path).
* Rip quite a few settings out of configure.ac as they are now picked by
setting the paths during configure or make.
* Fix bug with /tmp fallback for sync downloads not working correctly
(related to root location, now the system tmp dir is used).
