We didn't do this sanity check before trying to open an archive. If
the alpm dbpath wasn't set, the sync database dbpath would be NULL,
causing us to hang indefinitely in archive_read_open_filename() rather
than erroring out.
We already have a corresponding check in local_db_populate().
The following program will test this case, and hangs before this patch
without the call to set_dbpath:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
alpm_initialize();
// alpm_option_set_dbpath("/var/lib/pacman/");
pmdb_t *core = alpm_db_register_sync("core");
pmpkg_t *pkg = alpm_db_get_pkg(core, "pacman");
return 0;
}

Many alpm_option_get/set_*() functions already check this
and set pm_errno to the right value, but not all, so
this improves consistency.

This addresses FS#23424. The -dd backend code was introduced in commit
b6ec9019d7, and unfortunately the munged depend used for comparison did
not carry through to the eventual display of this version. To fix this,
we undo some of the depcmp_tolerant() business introduced, and instead
make a new pmdepend_t object if necessary when the no dependency version
flag is set. This results in the correct depend being copied to the
missing depend passed onto the frontend.

* Address FS#23433 by documenting -d vs. -dd
* Drop the useless "as well", "also", "too", and "that won't break
packages" strings from -R usage
* Fix alignment of multiline strings in source (no string change)

pacman 3.5.0 removed alpm_db_register_local, so calling
alpm_db_unregister_all leaves the front end in a position where there's
no local db, and no way to re-register it.

Noticed with the openoffice/libreoffice replacement scheme where many
packages are listed as replacements to one package, thus electing it for
removal multiple times. Ensure a given package is not already present
before placing it in the removal list.

This is a rather serious data corruption issue that luckily manifested
itself today in a noticable way. A package in testing had replaces
entries read in as ["%RE pkgname", "%RE"] which was clearly wrong. This
happens when we hit the end of an archive block, do not have a newline,
and have to continue reading from the next block to complete the line.

This is by no means a guarantee of this behavior remaining the same in

Noted in FS#23342. When the user attempts to install an ignored package
and answers no when asked whether to install it, pacman bails out with:
"error: target not found: packagename"
This is because satisfiers are not found for the package and execution
continues to process_group(), where the package is treated as a group
(which does not exist).
In addition, test ignore006.py is updated with PACMAN_RETCODE=0 since
saying no to installing an ignored package should not be considered an
error.

Partially addresses the "why doesn't CheckSpace work in a chroot" issue.
We can't make it work, but we can at least detect when it won't work by
checking for a partition for our given installation root. If we can't
determine the mountpoint for this, bail out with an error.

This makes all the pacman developers' jobs harder as we have to switch
files whenever running multiple pacman versions and are using newly
introduced options. Instead of erroring out, print warnings and continue
on.
This patch also fixes a const-correctness issue. We immediately cast a
'const char *' to a 'char *' in setrepeatingoption(), which is just
plain wrong as we manipulate the underlying string. Fix the types and
remove the now unnecessary variable.
Finally, a few messages change here for consistency and clarity and
because we continue parsing rather than bailing out on a problem.
