This accomplishes quite a few things with one rather invasive change.
1. Iteration is much more performant, due to a reduction in pointer
chasing and linear item access.
2. Data structures are smaller- we no longer have the overhead of the
linked list as the file struts are now laid out consecutively in
memory.
3. Memory allocation has been massively reworked. Before, we would
allocate three different pieces of memory per file item- the list
struct, the file struct, and the copied filename. What this resulted
in was massive fragmentation of memory when loading filelists since
the memory allocator had to leave holes all over the place. The new
situation here now removes the need for any list item allocation;
allocates the file structs in contiguous memory (and reallocs as
necessary), leaving only the strings as individually allocated. Tests
using valgrind (massif) show some pretty significant memory
reductions on the worst case `pacman -Ql > /dev/null` (366387 files
on my machine):
Before:
Peak heap: 54,416,024 B

Useful heap: 28,101,347 B

Several small helper methods have been introduced, including a list to

This addresses FS#25141. We shouldn't remove every empty directory we
come across during the removal process unless it is truly not known to
any other package. This will prevent removal of essential directories
such as '/var/lock/'.
This is accomplished by first checking the empty/non-empty status of a
directory, which was previously done implicitly by calling rmdir() and
ignoring errors. We do this to avoid the next (new) check in most cases,
which is to look at all local packages to see if the to-be-removed
directory is present in another packages' filelist. If we do not find it
anywhere, then we remove it, else we keep the file around.
The pactest has been updated to test more cases, as well as finding a
flaw in the original expected to fail case- we need separate DIR and
FILE based EXIST rules.

The bulk of this commit is adding new tests to ensure the new behavior
works without disrupting old behavior. This is a relatively sane maneuver
when a package adds a conf file (e.g. '/etc/mercurial/hgrc') that was
not previously in the package, but it is placed in the backup array. In
essence, we can treat the existing file as having always been a part of
the package and do our normal compare/install as pacnew logic checks.

This code duplication has always been a rather clumsy casuality of
fixing some past upgrade issues. Unify the removal code across upgrade
and remove operations into a new _alpm_remove_single_package() method
wihch makes it very clear how we handle upgrade and remove differently,
via several conditionals on newpkg.
This commit highlights interesting behavior such as the fact that the
implicit removal in every package upgrade never gets transaction events
or progress callbacks.

We didn't do due diligence before and ensure prior pm_errno values
weren't influencing what happened in further ALPM calls. I observed one
case of early setup code setting pm_errno to PM_ERR_WRONG_ARGS and that
flag persisting the entire time we were calling library code.
Add a new CHECK_HANDLE() macro that does two things: 1) ensures the
handle variable passed to it is non-NULL and 2) clears any existing
pm_errno flag set on the handle. This macro can replace many places we
used the ASSERT(handle != NULL, ...) pattern before.
Several other other places only need a simple 'set to zero' of the
pm_errno field.

Due to the way we funk around with package data loading, we had a condition
where the filelist got doubled up because it was loaded twice.
Packages are originally loaded with INFRQ_BASE. In an upgrade/sync, the
package is checked for file conflicts next, leaving us in an "INFRQ_BASE |
INFRQ_FILES" state. Later, when committing a single package, we have an
explicit call to _alpm_local_db_read() with INFRQ_ALL as the level. Because
the package's level did not match this, we skipped over our previous "does
the incoming level match where I'm at" shortcut, and continued to load
things again, because of a lack of fine-grained checking for each of DESC,
FILES, and INSTALL.
The end result is we loaded the filelist twice, causing our remove logic to
iterate twice over the installed files, spewing a bunch of "cannot find file
X" messages.
Fix the problem by doing a bit more bitmasking logic throughout the load
method, and also fix the sanity check at the beginning of the function- this
should *only* be used for local packages as opposed to the "not a package"
check that was there before.
A debug log message was added to upgraderemove as well to match the one
already in the normal remove codepath.

( 1/15) removing kde-meta-kdewebdev [------------------------] 100%
$ it stopped here..
On one side, libalpm did not initialize the progress bar at 0 percent.
So with meta-packages that have 0 files, there was only one progress bar
call with percent == 100.
On the other side, pacman callback kept track of the last percent that
it received. When there are only meta-packages, we always received only
100, so pacman believed the progress bar needed not update. Thus only
the first package was actually displayed.
A proper fix for the callback would be to keep track of last package
name to make sure the recorded prev percent applies.
But since we now specify that both Add and Remove should at least send
percent=0 at beginning and percent=100 at the end, there is no need
for that.

Commit 34e1413d75 attempted to implement lazy loading of package databases.
Although it took care of my main complaint (creating the database directory

With this patch, we no longer compute the individual repository DB paths
until necessary, allowing full lazy loading to work as intended, and
allowing us to drop the extra setlibpath() calls from the frontend. This

The names related to conflicts are misleading :
For dependencies conflicts, the type is pmdepmissing,

For file conflicts, the type is pmconflict,
