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".

This is a bug I noticed 2 years ago :
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-logging-output-crazy-to11437357.html#a11479679
I thought I fixed it with 57d77eab32
But the bug was still here. Reading man fork, this part caught my attention:
* 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.

The from_md5 and to_md5 fields were a nice extra safety, which would avoid
trying to apply deltas on corrupted package files. However, they are not
strictly necessary, since xdelta should be able to detect that on its own.
The main problem is that it is impossible to compute these informations from
the delta only. So repo-add would not be able to compute the delta entry
based on just the delta file.

Enabled a new prompt to ask the user if they'd like to remove
unresolvable packages from the transaction rather than failing it.
Many pactest tests that used to fail now return success codes, because
pacman now issues a prompt allowing the user to cancel rather than
failing many transactions, and the pactest scripts always choose to
cancel with no error rather than failing. The only net effect is that
the return status of pacman is now 0 in cases where it used to be
nonzero.

This change reorganizes the internal code so that packages are
resolved one at a time instead of all at once from a list. This will
allow a future checkin to prompt the user to see if they'd rather
remove unresolvable packages from the transaction and continue, or
fail the transaction. This change does not affect the actual behavior
of libalpm and all tests pass without changes.

We don't need to create the directories when local or sync dbs are
registered. For example, if a sync db does not exist, we cannot even do
"pacman -Q" as an user.
Instead, we can create the local db if needed during the db_prepare
operation, and sync dbs on db_update.
Also remove some more useless abstractions in db_update and switch to a much
more efficient way to remove a sync db : rm -rf.

These db_open and db_close looked quite useless. And they caused the db
directory to be opened on a simple registering of a database. This is
totally unneeded, this opening can be delayed to when we actually need it.

Instead of appending the prefix to each entry name, we can chdir to the
prefix before extracting, and restoring when it is done.
This seems to work better with the strange and special case of FS#12148
where an archive contained the "./" entry.

This patch fixes FS#12148 ('unstable' regular file).
I also changed the other archive_entry_set_mode usage in add.c to
archive_entry_set_perm.
Since I cannot find any relevant info in libarchive manual, I quote
Tim Kientzle (the author of libarchive) here, and I say thank you for
his help.

This is the problem in libalpm/util.c:

324 archive_entry_set_mode(entry, 0644);

Your example unstable.db.tar.gz is not empty. It has
one entry in it, called "./". That entry is marked
as a directory. But, when you call archive_entry_set_mode(),
you are changing the file type! archive_read_extract()
then creates the file /var/unstable as you requested.
(archive_read_extract() will replace an empty directory
with a file.)
You should either set the mode value correctly:
323 if(S_ISREG(st->st_mode)) {
324 archive_entry_set_mode(entry, IFREG | 0644);
325 } else if(S_ISDIR(st->st_mode)) {
326 archive_entry_set_mode(entry, IFDIR | 0755);
327 }
Or use archive_entry_set_perm(), which does not change
the file type:
323 if(S_ISREG(st->st_mode)) {
324 archive_entry_set_perm(entry, 0644);
325 } else if(S_ISDIR(st->st_mode)) {
326 archive_entry_set_perm(entry, 0755);
327 }

Clearly the old code was more elegant (NULL cache indicated "not loaded"),
but it had some drawbacks, so from now on we indicate the state of caches
explicitly.
Old drawbacks:
When we had an empty database (unstable), libalpm called db_populate after
every pkgcache access, because NULL pkgcache indicated "not loaded" state.
This is not a common case, but the same situation can happen with grpcache,
which is more problematic: If the user had a custom repo with no groups,
grpcache was always NULL. (grpcache is also loaded per database.) Thus
every get_grpcache call induced a load_grpcache operation, so the benefits
of grpcache was completely lost.

The HoldPkg feature is even more important when the packages to be held are
pulled automatically by pacman, in a -Rc and -Rs operation. Before, it only
applied when the packages were explicitly requested by the user to be
removed. This patch extends holdpkg to -Rc and -Rs by doing the HoldPkg
check just before trans_commit.
Additionally, the whole HoldPkg stuff was moved to the front-end.
I changed the default behavior to "don't remove", so I modified remove030.py
pactest as well.

Aaron said to consider libdownload a dead project so libdownload support was
removed to more easily fix libfetch one (otherwise many ifdef needed).
There was no direct replacement for ferror to detect an error while
downloading. So instead, I added a check at the end to see if the file was
fully downloaded, which is just a small chunk of code taken from here:

Changelogs and install files were getting extracted into the local
db folder before it was manually created. This created issues for
uses with 0077 umasks and was highlighted with the new sudo handling
of umasks (FS#12263).
This moves the local db creation to its own function which is called
before the start of package archive extraction. Also, added a check
that the folder is actually created.

We never had a call to pclose() in here before, leaving our file descriptor
in some sort of limbo state. In addition, clean up some of the other logic
such as directly calling exit(1) on a popen() failure rather than going to
our cleanup block, and handling and respecting the exit status of the
subprocess correctly.

It is possible to throw EINTR from a system call such as open(), close(), or
waitpid() if custom signal handlers are set up and they are not initialized
with the SA_RESTART flag. This was noticed by Andreas Radke when ^C (SIGINT)
was given during the call to waitpid(), causing it to throw the EINTR error
and we could not accommodate it.
Simply wrap these calls in a simple loop that allows us to retry the call if
interrupted.
