This addresses FS#24292. If one does the bad thing of not checking
pm_errno after calling set_dbpath(), you may not realize the
initialization process went wrong and calling trans_init() resulted in a
segfault. If we don't have a lockfile path, bail out and have
trans_init() fail.
Also remove a ALPM_LOG_FUNC call that was causing pm_errno to return "no
handle"; this was due to a log call in the handle setup (whereby the log
attempts to use a callback attached to the handle).

The addition of the DB version check introduces a lag time between the
lockfile creation and the transaction initialization. In cases where the

time is significant enough that its possible for a user to send a SIGINT
and leave behind a db.lck file.

( see http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2009-June/008847.html )
This basically started with this change :
/* Transaction */
struct __pmtrans_t {
- pmtranstype_t type;
pmtransflag_t flags;
pmtransstate_t state;
- alpm_list_t *packages; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */
+ alpm_list_t *add; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */
+ alpm_list_t *remove; /* list of (pmpkg_t *) */
And then I have to modify all the code accordingly.
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).

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

with the local one's.

pmsyncpkg_t data sructure was removed:
1. pmpkg_t.reason is used instead of pmsyncpkg_t.newreason. (The target
packages come from sync repos, so we can use this field without any
problems. Upgrade transaction also uses this field to store this info.)
2. pmsyncpkg_t.removes was moved to pmpkg_t.removes.
This step requires careful programming, because we don't duplicate packages
when we add them to trans->packages. So we modify sync pkgcache when we
add this transaction-only info to our package. Hence it is important to
free this list when we remove any package from the target list
(remove_unresolvable, remove_conflicts, trans_free), otherwise this could
confuse the new sync transactions (with non-pacman GUI).
Overall, our code became ~100 line shorter, and we can call our helper
functions directly on trans->packages in sync.c, we don't need to maintain
parallel package lists.

This reverts commit 9558639d80.
This change was wrong, popen does require /bin/sh in a subchroot.
1) pacman -S lilo -r root
Notice no error
2) rm root/bin/sh ; pacman -S lilo -r root
Notice an error :
error: scriptlet failed to execute correctly
Actually, we already get an explicit error here, when popen is run, so there
is no need to check for bin/sh explicitely.
Besides this check was problematic in some cases. For example, bash itself
has a scriptlet, but only post_install and post_upgrade, no pre_install and
pre_upgrade. However, since bash has a scriptlet, runscriptlet will also be
called before bash is installed. It won't do anything since the scriptlet
has no pre_install function. But if we keep the check, we will still get
"error : no /bin/sh".

I thought I fixed it with 57d77eab32

* The child inherits copies of the parent's set of open file
descriptors. Each file descriptor in the child refers to the same open
file description (see open(2)) as the corresponding file descriptor in the
parent. This means that the two descriptors share open file status
flags, current file offset, and signal-driven I/O attributes (see the
description of F_SETOWN and F_SETSIG in fcntl(2)).
Since the open file descriptors are inherited, it is probably a good idea to
flush them before forking.

Commit 8240da6cb3 broke some alpm hierarchy
and introduced a new memleak (trans->packages was never freed in case of add
transaction, even if the transaction wasn't committed), so it is reverted
now.
We follow a different approach to reduce memory usage:
_alpm_db_add_pkgincache doesn't duplicate the whole package before adding
it to the cache, only the package name and version (INFRQ_BASE).
This method needs very small extra memory (compared to the reverted method),
and after transaction commit we use less memory than before (since the
big 'files' fields are not copied to cache), this is useful in GUIs.
Note: The old add_pkgincache was a bit broken, since pkg->origin wasn't
filled in correctly.

These macros take the place of the common 4 or 5 line blocks of code we had

Highlights:
* Note that the MALLOC macro actually uses calloc, this is just for safety
so that memory is initialized to 0. This can be easily changed in one
place.
* One malloc call was completely eliminated- it made more sense to do it
on the stack.
* The use of RET_ERR in public functions (mainly the alpm_*_new functions)

My two previous hacks related to this part
(8038190c7c and
b15a5194d1) were caused by the lack of
understanding of a feature introduced a while ago:
Better control over CTRL-C interruptions -- do not leave the DB in an
inconsistent state (54008798ef).
Now I have been looking at this commit, and the added feature is indeed
interesting. The main problem I had with it is that it does a rather
unusual use of alpm_trans_release, which caused a few problems that I tried
to fix in a weird way. I think these problems were caused by the fact that
there weren't any difference between "interrupt transaction" and "release a
transaction which failed" actions from the alpm_trans_release POV. So I
decided to add a new function instead, alpm_trans_interrupt, which is
called on Ctrl+C, and which only sets trans->state to STATE_INTERRUPTED so
that remove_commit and add_commit can exit cleanly at a safe moment. This
allowed me to revert my two previous hacks as well.
Also ensure we handle SIGINT correctly in all cases- if a transaction is
not ongoing, then we can free the transaction and exit quickly.

This patch cleans up and fix the _alpm_trans_update_depends function
and ensure that all requiredby fields are filled in case of multiple satisfiers
(previously, the handling of mutliple satisfiers in that function was inconsistent).
This makes a special case handling of requiredby in commit_single_pkg() obsolete,
and so allows cleaning that code as well.
Also fixed upgrade056 pactest because :
1) the requiredby fields were wrong, and this wouldn't happen with the fixed _alpm_trans_update_depends().
2) this is a very unusual case anyway (and handling all corner cases combined to a broken database
seems nearly impossible to achieve).
