It turns out the orphan name was misleading. Real orphans are packages
installed as dependency no longer required by any others (-Qtd).
The -t option only shows package not required by any others, so --unrequired
describes it better.

I also changed it for fixing FS#8763 :
if there is exactly one provider, pacman will pull it and print a warning.
if there are several providers, pacman will list them and fail. It's up to
the user to pick one. Add sync501 pactest to reflect that.
It wasn't even implemented correctly, and it really doesn't have a use if
packagers just do their job correctly anyway for a distro. Let's not try to
solve a problem with the wrong solution now.

There is another case where pacman-git asks for confirmation, when it should
not. It is when removing packages. If running with makeworld --noconfirm
--rmdeps the question will come to the log file, and never appear on the
console, so you can wait forever wondering what is happening.

Thanks to Allan for inspiring all this work on what was one little TODO item
in the codebase. :)
Change changelog handling so we can now dump a changelog from both installed
packages and package files (fixes FS#7371). We do this by moving all of the
machinery to the backend where it should have been in the first place.
The changelog reading is now done through a open/read/close interface
similar to the fopen/fread/fclose functions (can you guess how it is done?).
It is buffered by the frontend, so programs using the library can read as
much or as little as they want at a time.
Unfortunately, I could not implement a changelog_feof function due to some
shortcomings of libarchive. However, I left the stub code in there,
commented out, in case it becomes possible later or anyone wants to take a
stab at it.

This feature (introduced by b118ce55bd as a
part of -Sc) could actually be helpful in the 3.0 -> 3.1 transition, because
all sync dbs will be left in /var/lib/pacman/, while the updated ones will
go to /var/lib/pacman/sync/.
So it'll now clean everything in /var/lib/pacman/, and only the unused
databases in /var/lib/pacman/sync/ (with the exception of local/ and sync/
in both cases).
Note: This feature is undocumented. I wonder if moving it to another option,
something like -S --dbclean, wouldn't help for documenting it.

When a DB is "registered" in libalpm, it goes and tries to create paths and
other BS which is stupid, but a pain in the butt to fix. For now, work

I made pacman path handling a bit odd with my rootdir changes a while back
in order to increase flexability. However, it had a bit of a drawback in
that dbpath/logfile/etc. would not default to being under the rootdir if
that was the only parameter you specified in the config file or on the
command line. (Note: logfile handling was always broken due to the explicit
logfile line required in config files)
Pacman now works as follows:
if a rootdir is specified but not dbpath or logfile:
attempt to place the logfile and dbpath in their default locations under
root
if an explicit dbpath/logfile is specified:
interpret these as absolute paths, regardless of the rootdir setting
if nothing is specified:
fall back to configured defaults

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.

I didn't understand why realpath was called on every files of every filelist
in query_fileowner :
ppath = resolve_path(path);
It turns out this is needed for the diverted files. For example, cddb_get
installs /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/CDDB_get.pm which actually ends in
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/current/CDDB_get.pm .
And for making pacman -Qo /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/current/CDDB_get.pm ,
realpath has to be called on both the target, and the file in the filelist.
However, realpath is costly, and calling it on every single file resulted
in a poor -Qo performance. Worst case :
pacman -Qo /lib/libz.so.1 0.35s user 1.51s system 99% cpu 1.864 total
So I did a little optimization to avoid calling realpath as much as
possible: first compare the basename of each file.
Result:
src/pacman/pacman -Qo /lib/libz.so.1 0.24s user 0.05s system 99% cpu 0.298
total
Obviously, the difference will be even bigger at the first run (no fs
cache), though it's quite scary on my system : 1.7s vs 40s previously.

checkdeps and resolvedeps now take both a remove list and an install list as
arguments, allowing dependencies to be calculated correctly.
This broke the sync990 pactest, but this pactest used dependencies and

Dan: the sync990 pactest was just plain wrong. It didn't satisfy the

* The frontend calls alpm_trans_prepare(&data), and in case of errors,
receive the missing dependencies / conflicts / etc in the data pointer.
It apparently needs to free this structure totally with :
alpm_list_free_inner(data, free)
alpm_list_free(data)
So I added alpm_list_free_inner(data, free) in
pacman/{sync.c,remove.c,add,c}
* in _alpm_sync_prepare, the deps and asked lists were not freed in case
of errors (unresolvable conflicts).
Besides the code for handling this case was duplicated.
* in _alpm_remove_commit, free was used instead of alpm_list_free for
newfiles.
* newline fix in pacman/sync.c

The alpm_get_upgrades was exactly the same as find_replacements +
_alpm_sync_sysupgrade, except that it automatically made the eventual
replacements, without asking the user : Replace %s with %s/%s? [Y/n]
The replace question, asked in find_replacements. can now be skipped by
using a NULL trans argument, so that we get the same behavior as with
alpm_get_upgrades.
So alpm_db_get_upgrades() can now be replaced by
alpm_sync_sysupgrade(db_local, syncdbs).

pmdepmissing_t was used for two totally different things :
missing dependencies, and dependency conflicts.
So this patch simply adds a type for dep conflicts,
and convert the code to use it.
This fix the TODO in conflict.c :
/* TODO WTF is a 'depmissing' doing indicating a conflict? */
Additionally, the code in conflict.c now eliminates the duplicated conflicts.
If pkg1 conflicts with pkg2, and pkg2 conflicts with pkg1, only one of them will be stored.
However the conflict handling in sync_prepare (sync.c) is still very asymetrical, and very ugly too.
This should be improved in the future (there is already a pending patch from Nagy that cleans it a lot).
Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>
The names related to conflicts are misleading :
For dependencies conflicts, the type is pmdepmissing,
and the function names contain just "conflict".
For file conflicts, the type is pmconflict,
and some functions contained just "conflict", some others "fileconflict".
So this is the first step for improving the situation.
Original idea/patch from Nagy, but the patch already didn't apply anymore,
so I did it again.
The main difference is that I kept the conflictype, with the following renaming :
pmconflicttype_t -> pmfileconflicttype_t
PM_CONFLICT_TYPE_TARGET -> PM_FILECONFLICT_TARGET
PM_CONFLICT_TYPE_FILE -> PM_FILECONFLICT_FILESYSTEM
