This removes the hack I added to skip '*.sig' files earlier since there
are other files that also fall into the same bucket- source packages
from `makepkg --source`, delta files, etc. Rather than prompting for
each and every one, simply skip them. Doing '-Scc' rather than '-Sc'
will delete these files if that is really what you want to do.

We had this interesting set of facts conundrum, according to vercmp
return values:
2.0a < 2.0
2.0 < 2.0.a
2.0a == 2.0.a
This introduces a code change that ensures '2.0a < 2.0.a' as would be
expected by the first two comparisons. Unfortunately this stays us a bit
further from upstream RPM code, but those are the breaks (in RPM, the
versions involving 'a' do in fact compare the same, but they are both
greater than the bare '2.0').

This closely matches what we had before for -R --recursive. Basically,
when specifying a target (e.g., pacman), we can now recursively pull all
dependencies, regardless of version specifiers and whether they are
already satisfied in the local database. This could be used to update
pacman on a system with an old glibc, for example, as both pacman and
glibc would get pulled into the transaction.
This is most useful with --needed to prevent needless reinstalls as
described in the man page changes.
The end goal of this change is to wire it into SyncFirst and have it be
the default mode of operation there, but that belongs in a separate
changeset.

This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run

The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of

This patch utilizes the power of sync.c to fix FS#3492 and FS#5798.
Now an upgrade transaction is just a sync transaction internally (in alpm),
so all sync features are available with -U as well:
* conflict resolving
* sync dependencies from sync repos
* remove unresolvable targets
See http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2009-June/008725.html
for the concept.
We use "mixed" target list, where PKG_FROM_FILE origin indicates local
package file, PKG_FROM_CACHE indicates sync package. The front-end can add
only one type of packages (depending on transaction type) atm, but if alpm
resolves dependencies for -U, we may get a real mixed trans->packages list.
_alpm_pkg_free_trans() was modified so that it can handle both target types
_alpm_add_prepare() was removed, we use _alpm_sync_prepare() instead
_alpm_add_commit() was renamed to _alpm_upgrade_targets()
sync.c (and deps.c) was modified slightly to handle mixed target lists,
the modifications are straightforward. There is one notable change here: We
don't create new upgrade trans in sync.c, we replace the pkgcache entries
with the loaded package files in the target list (this is a bit hackish) and
call _alpm_upgrade_targets(). This implies a TODO (pkg->origin_data.db is
not accessible anymore), but it doesn't hurt anything with pacman front-end,
so it will be fixed later (otherwise this patch would be huge).
I updated the documentation of -U and I added a new pactest, upgrade090.py,
to test the syncdeps feature of -U.

If the user switches from unstable repo to a stable one, it is quite hard to
sync its system with the new repo (the user will see many "Local is newer
than stable" messages, nothing more). That's why I introduced -Suu, which
treats a sync package like an upgrade, iff the package version doesn't match
with the local one's.
I added a new pactest (sync104.py) to test this, and I updated the
documentation of -Su.

* Change the return values to be more informative.
It was previously boolean, only indicating if a sync package was newer than
a local package.
Now it is a simple wrapper to vercmp, handling the force flag.
* Remove the verbose output from _alpm_pkg_compare_versions.
The "force" message is not so useful.
The "package : local (v1) is newer than repo (v2)" message can be moved to
-Su operation.
For the -S operation, it is better to have something like :
"downgrading package from v1 to v2"
* Don't display the "up to date -- skipping" and "up to date -- reinstalling"
messages, when the local version is newer than the sync one.
* Fix the behavior of --needed option to not skip a target when the local
version is newer, and clarify its description.
* Add a new alpm_pkg_has_force function
This allows us to access the pkg->force field like any other package fields.

still fail on a few tests, namely these ones:

Now '-S provision' handling is done in the back-end.
In case of multiple providers, the first one is selected (behavior change:
deleted provision002.py). The old processing order was: literal, group,
provision; the new one: literal, provision, group. This is more rational,
but "pacman -S group" will be slower now. "pacman -S repo/provision" also
works. Provision was generalized to dependencies, so you can resolve deps by
hand: "pacman -S 'bash>2.0'" or "pacman -S 'core/bash>2.0'" etc. This can be
useful in makepkg dependency resolving. The changes were documented in
pacman manual.
alpm_find_pkg_satisfiers and _alpm_find_dep_satisfiers functions were
removed, since they are no longer needed.
I added some verbosity to "select provider instead of literal" and
"fallback to group".
