5fcb005ebd CLI args: stricter/better parsing
In the following, the letters SRUDQ refer to the corresponding pacman
operations.

Most of the work in this commit is about removing as many options as
possible from the global section and moving them to where they actually
belong.

Additionally, --ignore{,group} are added to U and --dbonly is added
to S.

--dbonly added to S
--asdeps moved to S/U/D
--asexplicit moved to S/U/D
--print-format moved to S/U/R
--noprogressbar moved to S/U/R
--noscriptlet moved to S/U/R
--ignorepkg added to U
--ignoregrp added to U
-d moved to S/U/R (--nodeps) and Q (--deps)
-p moved to S/U/R (--print) and Q (--file)
-f moved to S/U

ac9dde072c Introduce -D, --database
The request of FS#12950 is implemented.

On the backend side, I introduced a new function, alpm_db_set_pkgreason(),
to modify the install reason of a package in the local database. On the
front-end side, I introduced a new main operation, -D/--database, which has
two options, --asdeps and --asexplicit. I documented this in pacman manual.
I've created two pactests to test -D: database001.py and database002.py.

0da96abc90 Use sync.c for upgrade transaction prepare and commit
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.

1d19f0896c Introduce -Suu
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.

ca6ef852f9 New feature: files verification
This implements FS#13877. Add a new option "-Qk" which checks if all of the
files for a given package (or packages) are really on the system (i.e. not
accidentally deleted). This can be combined with filters and other display
options. It also respects both the --quiet and --verbose flags to give
varying levels of output.

5b51dbb11e Cleanup of _alpm_pkg_compare_versions.
* 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.

5e4882dfe8 Fix vercmp and add additional tests
This vercmp issue has been a sticking point but this should resolve many of
the issues that have come up. Only a few minor code changes were necessary
to get the behavior we desired, and this version appears to beat any other
vercmp rendition on a few more cases added in this commit.

This commit passes all 58 vercmp tests currently out there. Other 'fixes'
still fail on a few tests, namely these ones:

test: ver1: 1.5.a ver2: 1.5 ret: -1 expected: 1
  ==> FAILURE
test: ver1: 1.5 ver2: 1.5.a ret: 1 expected: -1
  ==> FAILURE

fd8969f678 sync_addtarget rework
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".

3d10d460df Add new CleanMethod option.
As it was already mentioned several times, the new -Sc behavior in 3.1 is
great, but only when the package cache is not shared.

This option has two possible values : KeepInstalled and KeepCurrent
With KeepCurrent, -Sc will clean packages that are no longer available in
any sync db, rather than packages that are no longer in the local db. The
resulting behavior should be better for shared cache.

e63366ae5e New remove option : -u / --unneeded (FS#6505).
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.]

250331a636 Add new --needed option for -S.
During a pacman operation such as a group install, pacman can ask several
questions such as "local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway?". They are
usually all answered either by yes or by no:
* yes when you want to reinstall all the targets.
* no when you only want to install the missing ones (either because you are
installing a group, or because you are copying a pacman -S line from wiki or
whatever).

So instead of asking this question for each target, it is now now configured
with a flag.  Yes will be the default -S behavior, No will be achieved with
the --needed flag.
