I previously introduced some patches to make just about every path in
pacman/libalpm configurable; doing this with the lockfile seemed a bit too
far and we really should just place the lockfile where it belongs- with the
DB that needs locking.

For future possibilities, don't extract any files that start with '.'.
This will allow us to add features such as the ChangeLog viewing without
having to wait to include these files in packages, because older versions
of pacman will be forward compatable with 'hidden' files at the root level
of the package.

This was a bad way to fix a problem upstream. Doing this resulted in
symlink permissions being applied to files installed on the system, leaving
some binaries with 77 permission, etc.

This function is an absolute disaster, so we'll take it one step at a time

This should hopefully allow multiple cache dirs to be specified in
pacman.conf and/or on the command line, and allow pacman to test
each one for the package file. The first one found to be writeable is
used as the download cache.

* Readd default logmask of ERROR and WARNING
* Remove DOWNLOAD log level as it no longer applies

Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
Remove the logmask functionality from the backend as it has been moved to
the frontend, and change the logging callback function to use pm_printf.
In addition, make much better use of va_list- use the args list instead
of a arbitrarily chosen string to print to in the logging functions.

Add some 'const' keywords all over the code to make it a bit more strict on

return pointers to the pacman frontend- ideally this would always be
untouchable data.

alpm.h is the only "publically viewable" file, so there is no reason to have
functions in alpm.c that belong in package.c, db.c, etc. Move the functions
where they belong and leave only the library init functions in alpm.c.

This change allows us to use all autoconf specified paths, most notably
$(localstatedir). It is quite a change and touches a lot of files, as
all references to the DB and cache were done with the ROOTDIR as a prefix.
* add --lock command-line option to pacman to specify the location of the
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).
* Simplified the parameters to some libalpm functions, and added get/set
for the new lockfile option.
* Renamed several of the DEFS to names without the PM_ prefix.

Several important paths, file locations, and extensions were #define-d in the

pacman.conf.

* Use db->path when appropriate
* Commented out the FAKEROOT checks in libalpm. This should never ever be done.
TODO test this quite a bit, as this will never cause the transactions to fail

to decide when to fail
* Use realpath() to canonicalize the root path when specified, so
_alpm_makepath() doesn't freak out
* Fixed some output/indent of MDFile and SHAFile algorithms
* More efficient sprintf() usage in MDFile/SHAFile
* Added real error output to _alpm_makepath
occasions where some alpm stuff could be used without initializing the
library (vercmp is one). TODO make these functions (handle accessors)

* Removed NoUpgrade lines from pacman.conf - we need to test this!
* Re-corrected the lib targets for src/util/*
* make dist seems to have updated the po files
it. Eventually we'll make progress.
* Rewrote the _alpm_splitdep function to behave more like all our other
function calls. Use heap instead of stack allocation for the depend struct,
so now it needs to be freed by the caller.
* Moved entirely to alpm_pkg_get_* accessors, to read data on demand
* Mostly removed the INFRQ_ parameters from outside the be_files backend (making
the backend more extensible in the long run)
* packages created from _alpm_db_scan now have the db and origin set (making
accessors actually work for these packages)
* removed _alpm_db_ensure_pkgcache
* totally revamped the _alpm_checkconflicts function, making it cleaner and
easier to read (and thus fix in the long run) - maintainable code ftw
NOTE: feel free to rename the functions... I couldn't think of anything better
* removed an extra loop in sync.c:find_replacements - no sense in looping over
an entire DB while strcmp'ing the name, when we have get_pkgfromcache
Other:
* package struct "license" -> "licenses"
* Created _alpm_sync_find (duplicate code in some places, find_pkginsync
* Minor const correctness changes along the way
* fixed a couple extra '/' pathing issues (non-issues really)
* removed a duplicate pkg_cmp function
allows for the same bit operators to be used across the board on pkg_get
operations.
* Changed name of INFRQ_NONE -> INFRQ_BASE to more clearly reflect what it
does (loads pkg name and version).
* Added a few missing things on package functions, such as SYMEXPORT and
ALPM_LOG_FUNC.
* Slight updates to pmenv to print 'pass' and 'fail' instead of 'passed' and
'failed'. Keeps output a bit more concise.
* Fixed a doxygen comment spelling error. :P
* Added some provision switching hackery. This could probably use some
refactoring,.. it solves the following case:
pkg1 and pkg2 provide 'foo' and are both installed
pkg3 depends on 'foo' and so lists 'pkg1' in the REQUIREDBY db section
pkg1 is upgraded and no longer provides 'foo'
** This code ensures that the REQUIREDBY of pkg3 is updated to require pkg2
now instead of pkg1
about bigger DB changes later, but lets not screw anything up for release.
* Removed some weird uses of "not ... ==" usage in pactest- correct me if I'm
wrong, but isn't "!=" a lot more clean and concise?
* Print description of failed tests in the pactest summary. This could get
dirty with a lot of failed tests though, so watch out.

* Slight revisions to pmrule.py to allow for a PKG_PROVIDES test.
* Very quick updates to the pactest README.
* Added rules to some of the newer upgrade tests. Note: upgrade055 now fails
due to requiredby entries not being written packages that are dependencies
in a provides role.
* Unified some functions names "package" -> "pkg" for consistency
* Removed the goofy 'faketarget' stuff used for dep testing
* Renamed alpm_pkg_isin -> alpm_pkg_find
* Renamed alpm_db_readpkg -> alpm_db_get_pkg
Giovanni Scafora <linuxmania@gmail.com>
* added '-fstack-protector' flag to debug compile, to catch any buffer
overflows we may have in stack variables.
* Updated all of the language files, as the POT file was updated. NOTE FOR
TRANSLATORS, try to base your next contribution off of these, notice how
some msgids and messages have been wrapped to the next line- it makes it
easier to read anyway.
* More Makefile.am/configure.ac updates. 'make dist' and 'make distclean' now
work properly, with only one caveat- the automatic testing in distclean
doesn't do so hot as it is compiled with a default configure, which includes
the fakeroot-proof code (which does not cooperate with pactest).
* Added a Makefile.am for the pactest directory.
* Fixed conflict checking. I had mistakenly assumed that the transaction
packages were of type 'pmsyncpkg_t', but that is not the case. Reverted back
to pmpkg_t's and fixed some checking a bit.
* pactest results: PASSED = 71 (100.00%)
* Fixed a segfault in the conflict checking code
* Added an automatic failure in the case of -A/-U for a replacement of an
existing package. This requires a large amount of work and is postponed for
now. Example:
If ncmpc is installed, pacman -U /path/to/ncmpc-svn.pkg.tar.gz will fail

* fix indent level on handle.c
* Force libalpm paths to end with a '/' char
* Fixed 'target' looping in conflict.c (pmsyncpkg_t, not pmpkg_t)
* Added some debug output to cache and db scanning
** All pactest tests succeed again, yay **

through the use of two skip lists in the trans struct- skip_add and
skip_remove, which replace the former trans->skiplist.
* Removed an unnecessary function parameter, added a necessary one.
* If a package has no backup files, print '(none)' under the heading so it is
more obvious.
* Updated my TODO list.
- the code should be clearer, more organized, commented, and have worthwhile
variable names now
- proactive backup=()s now work. That is, adding a file to a backup array

* ldconfig was being run twice on an upgrade operation - fixed
* fixed another pm_fprintf/printf output corruption with the progress bars

* reloading a cache package (and discovering it corrupt) no longer prints 2 messages

NOTE: The TODOs in there are important for later w.r.t. cleaning up corrupt DB
entries but there are some logical complexities with doing so, so I'm holding
off for now.
* The --debug params were goofy. New setup allows --debug without params,
--debug=<level> where level 1=debug output, 2=debug and download output,
3=debug, download, and function tracing output. This seems more sane to me.
* Removed PM_LOG_FLOW1 and PM_LOG_FLOW2. They were just confusing. When adding
new functions, it is near impossible to determin if your output should be
"flow1" or "flow2" without tracking all the way up the call chain. Rarely
would one ever say "ok, lets just show "flow2" output. These have both been
replaced with PM_LOG_DEBUG
* Removed the need for the root parameter on alpm_initialize. it is now
defaulted to PM_ROOT just like dbpath and cachedir. This allows alpm to be
initialized BEFORE option parsing in the front end, saving us some duplicate
variables in the frontend.
* Cleaned up front end variables due to early alpm_initialize call.
* Fix up add.c a bit better than it was in regards to FS #3492.
* Optimized the sqrt call in dependency cycle checking to a single call.
* Removal of an outdated comment.
* alpm_list_is_in --> alpm_list_find
* alpm_list_is_strin --> alpm_list_find_str
* Flip parameters of both functions to be inline with rest of alpm_list.
First commit, woohoo.

* Invalid packages (missing files) are now removed from the package cache
* -Qs and -Ss output now look the same
* config.rpath causes errors on one machine I had, so I added it to CVS
* Fixed a "clobbered memory" issue when installing groups - only the outer list
should be free'd, not the contained data
optimizations in order to make the code much more readable and
type-checkable. Every enum in the library now has it's own type that
should be used instead of the generic 'unsigned char'. In addition,
several #define statements dealing with constants were converted to
enums.

the infolevel of each package and attempt to update it. This could be
ironed out a bit more later (by using the front-end get_info function

progress bar functions. Also fixed the return value of
_alpm_downloadfiles_forreal. Downloading now supports http, ftp, https, and
files urls, along with 'mtime's and numerous other fancy features from
libfetch.
This should be changed later, or at least everything fixed up. Typically a 1
