Commit 34e1413d75 attempted to implement lazy loading of package databases.
Although it took care of my main complaint (creating the database directory
if it didn't exist), it didn't allow sync repos to be registered before
alpm_option_set_dbpath() had been called.
With this patch, we no longer compute the individual repository DB paths
until necessary, allowing full lazy loading to work as intended, and
allowing us to drop the extra setlibpath() calls from the frontend. This
allows the changes introduced in a2cd48960 (but later reverted) to be added

( 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).
I updated the documentation of -U and I added a new pactest, upgrade090.py,
to test the syncdeps feature of -U.

"Foo replaces bar" simply means that "foo is a new version of bar".
So this patch refactors the code to use this "rule".
_alpm_sync_sysupgrade now does the following for each local package [bar]
(pseudo-code):
for db in syncdbs {
if(db contains bar) {check if db/bar is an upgrade; break;}
replacers = find(bar replacers in db);
if(replacers!=NULL) {ask_user; break;}
}
Note:
1. Replacers are grouped per repo. If more than one package replace bar in
a repo, all of them are considered ("package set of bar replacers").
2. If repo1/foo1 and repo2/foo2 both replaces bar, only repo1/foo1 is
considered (if repo1 stands before repo2 in pacman.conf). FS#11737 is fixed.
3. It can happen that pacman doesn't consider any replacer, if it found a
literal "earlier", so sync132.py modified accordingly (btw, that situation
should not appear irl).
The new sysupgrade code doesn't use sync_newversion(), so I removed the
"local is newer than repo" message, which was annoying with -Qu and

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.

From now on _alpm_db_find_fileconflicts() works with upgrade and remove
target lists (like checkdeps), which makes it transaction independent
(we still need a trans param because of the progressbar). This is a small
step towards the universal transaction. So we call this function directly
from sync.c before commiting the remove transaction. This is much safer,
but we can get false fileconflict error alarms in some tricky cases
("symlinks puzzle" etc).
The patch on find_fileconflict looks complex, but it is mainly an
"indent-patch", the new code-part can be found after the
/* check remove list ... */ comment, and I modified something around the
"file has changed hand" case (see comment modifications in the code).
Unfortunately sync.c became more ugly, because we have to create 2 parallel
internal transactions: to avoid duplicated work, upgrade transaction is
used to load package data (filelists). This problem will disappear, when
we finally get rid of internal transactions.

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

Your example unstable.db.tar.gz is not empty. It has

you are changing the file type! archive_read_extract()

You should either set the mode value correctly:

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:

[Dan: fix compilation warnings]

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.

Pacman currently logs .pacnew warnings to pacman.log but a similar history
of .pacsave warnings isn't kept. The user should be able to search
pacman.log to discover when and where all .pac* files were created by
pacman.
Addresses FS#12531.

May help debug issues we come across with proxy behavior (e.g. those pesky
segfaults) as well as be informative to the user when things aren't working
quite right. Addresses FS#12396.
