This patch addresses quite a few lingering issues in the pacman-optimize
script. FS#11767 provoked this look-over and the following issues were
noticed and fixed:
* If an alternate dbroot was specified, then the lockfile location was never
updated to reflect it. The lockfile location is now set after all dbpath
initialization.
* The inclusion of a trailing slash on dbroot was problematic and led to the
following command being executed:
bsdtar -xpf /tmp/pacman-optimize.p12Q4vAUWY/pacman-db.tar.gz \
-C /var/lib/pacman/.new/
It is doubtful we meant to create a hidden directory like this below our
database root, only to go and delete it a second later and then
re-extract. Fix the whole thing by ensuring our dbpath has its trailing
slash stripped and then appending it when necessary.
* The DB extraction was performed twice for no real apparent reason. This
opens the door for extraction problems the second time around, leaving you
with no original database to fall back to. Change the behavior so we only
extract once, and then perform a directory shuffle once we verify the
checksums are correct.
* Perform an explicit sync after we drop the new database on the disk. It
should work better this way.
* Tighten up our check for a pacman lockfile and the time we create one.
There is still a possible race condition but the window is shorter.

Address the issue of our scripts not working so great when gettext is not
available. This has come up in multiple bug reports, and is relatively easy
to address by adding a simple check and a stub function if gettext was not
found that simply echos the original message.
Addresses concerns from FS#9214 and FS#9607.

Update the GPL boilerplate to direct people to the GNU website for a copy of
the license, as well as bump all of Judd's copyrights to 2007.

repo-add, repo-remove:
'bsdtar -c * | ...' doesn't work (you need '-f -'). Code clean up
eliminated this bug.
Removed the multiple checksum support, pacman now only supports MD5, so
there's no need for the database to contain multiple checksums.
Quote all variables containing file/dir names to prevent paths
containing spaces from causing problems.
Add msg, warning and error functions.
General code clean up.
pacman-optimize:
Use a sub-directory in /tmp for working files to make it easier to clean
up at the end.
Add quotes round $@ in die and die_r, otherwise printf can't display the
message correctly.
makepkg:
Disable colour output if stderr is not a tty.

It is much easier for translators to deal with paragraphs as strings rather
than by lines. Take all usage and version information and convert it to this
format.

If we move the scripts from *.in to *.sh.in and *.py.in, gettext can pull the
required strings to translate a whole lot easier. Do this.
