With --unneeded option 'pacman -R' doesn't stop in case of dependency error;
it removes the needed-dependency targets from the target-list instead. See
also: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-October/009653.html .
The patch also adds a new causingpkg field to pmdepmissing_t which indicates
the to-be-removed package which would cause a dependency break. This is
needed, because miss->depend.name may be a provision. miss->causingpkg will
be useful in -R dependency error messages too.
[Xavier: renamed inducer to causingpkg, removed the _alpm_pkgname_pkg_cmp
helper function as requested by Aaron. This might be added by a further
commit. Other small cleanups, updated manpage and bash completion.]

The deptest code (pacman -T) used by makepkg was mostly in the frontend.
There were 2 drawbacks:
1) the public splitdep function returns a pmdepend_t struct, but the
_alpm_dep_free function for freeing it is private. So there was a memleak.
2) there is a helper in the backend (satisfycmp in deps.c) which makes this
function much easier.
So this adds a new public alpm_deptest in libalpm/deps.c, which cleans
pacman_deptest in pacman/deptest.c a lot.
Besides, alpm_splitdep was made private, because the frontend no longer
requires it, and _alpm_dep_free is also private.
Finally the deptest001 pactest was extended.

Change the 'provname provver' format to 'provname=provver'.
In .PKGINFO, the provisions are copied from the PKGBUILD without quotes. So
the provision version was actually handled as a different provision...
See FS#9171.
Dan: Unfortunately we have to change our original specification for
versioned provisions with this patch, but it ends up being the simpler and
cleaner solution in the long run, and if there is any time to change it the
time is now before many packages have been built. Keeping the ' ' based
format would have required us to do special parsing in repo-add, as well as
being susceptible to users not using quotes in their provides array.
Hopefully this will resolve the issues we had with our initial plan. Sorry
for the confusion.

We didn't have a free function before, causing some memory leaks. We also
need a dup function now that strings are not in the structure but are
dynamically allocated.
Also adapt pmdepmissing_t to use a pointer to a depend struct instead of an
inclusive one so we can use the functions we created here.
Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
This also affects all structures with static strings, such as depmiss,
conflict, etc. This should help a lot with memory usage, and hopefully make
things a bit more "idiot proof".
Currently our pactest pass/fail rate is identical before and after this
patch. This is not to say it is a perfect patch- I have yet to pull valgrind
out. However, this should be quite safe to use in all situations from here
on out, and we can start plugging the memleaks.

checkdeps and resolvedeps now take both a remove list and an install list as

This broke the sync990 pactest, but this pactest used dependencies and

Dan: the sync990 pactest was just plain wrong. It didn't satisfy the
dependencies correctly, so should never have succeeded.

pmdepmissing_t was used for two totally different things :
missing dependencies, and dependency conflicts.
So this patch simply adds a type for dep conflicts,
and convert the code to use it.
This fix the TODO in conflict.c :
/* TODO WTF is a 'depmissing' doing indicating a conflict? */
Additionally, the code in conflict.c now eliminates the duplicated conflicts.
If pkg1 conflicts with pkg2, and pkg2 conflicts with pkg1, only one of them will be stored.
However the conflict handling in sync_prepare (sync.c) is still very asymetrical, and very ugly too.
This should be improved in the future (there is already a pending patch from Nagy that cleans it a lot).

Holy inefficient batman! For a pacman -Qt operation (when we are using
compute_requiredby and not database entries), splitdep was being called ~1.3
million times on my local database. By splitting when we read the DB, we
drop this number to around 1700 and save a LOT of time in doing so (a 5x
increase in pacman -Qt speed here).
Note that the depends alpm_list_t in the package struct is no longer a
string list, but a list of pmdepent_t objects.

Instead of using the often-busted REQUIREDBY entries in the pacman database,
compute them each time they are required. This should help many things:
1. Simplify the codebase
2. Prevent future database corruption
3. Ensure when we do use requiredby, it is always correct
4. Shrink the pmpkg_t memory overhead

It's time to define that alpm_list_add(list, foo) adds 'foo' to the end of
'list' and returns with 'list', because:
1. list is a list, not a set.
2. sortbydeps _needs_ an alpm_list_add definition to work properly.
As a first step, I used this definition in recursedeps.

These macros take the place of the common 4 or 5 line blocks of code we had
in most places that called malloc or calloc. This should reduce some code
duplication and make memory allocation more standard in libalpm.
Highlights:
* Note that the MALLOC macro actually uses calloc, this is just for safety
so that memory is initialized to 0. This can be easily changed in one
place.
* One malloc call was completely eliminated- it made more sense to do it
on the stack.
* The use of RET_ERR in public functions (mainly the alpm_*_new functions)
was standardized, this makes sense so pm_errno is set.
