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
than stable" messages, nothing more). That's why I introduced -Suu, which
treats a sync package like an upgrade, iff the package version doesn't match
with the local one's.
I added a new pactest (sync104.py) to test this, and I updated the
documentation of -Su.

This fixes FS#14899. When running an -Sp operation without servers
configured for a repository, we would segfault, so add an assert to the
backend method returning the first server preventing a null pointer
dereference.
In addition, add a new error code to libalpm that indicates we have no
servers configured for a repository. This makes -Sy and -S <package>
operations fail gracefully and helpfully when a repo is set up with no
servers, as the default mirrorlist in Arch is provided this way.

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.

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

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

Now '-S provision' handling is done in the back-end.
In case of multiple providers, the first one is selected (behavior change:

provision; the new one: literal, provision, group. This is more rational,
but "pacman -S group" will be slower now. "pacman -S repo/provision" also
works. Provision was generalized to dependencies, so you can resolve deps by
hand: "pacman -S 'bash>2.0'" or "pacman -S 'core/bash>2.0'" etc. This can be
useful in makepkg dependency resolving. The changes were documented in

Using the graph structures that Nagy set up for dependency sorting, we now
do a similar process for deltas. Load up all of the deltas into a graph
object on which we can then apply Dijkstra's algorithm, using the new weight
field of graph struct.
We initialize the nodes weight using the base files that we can use in our
filecache (both filename and md5sum must match). The algorithm then picks
the best path among those that can be resolved.
Note that this algorithm has a few advantages over the old one:
1. It is completely file agnostic. These delta chains do not have to consist
of package files- this could be adopted to do delta-fied DBs.
2. It does not use the local_db anymore, or even care if a package or file
is currently installed. Instead, it only looks in the filecache for files
and packages that match delta chain entries.

pmdepmissing_t was used for two totally different things :

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.

Add some alpm functions for getting optdepends, have makepkg include them
in the PKGINFO file, and have a pacman -Qi operation display the raw string
as stored by libalpm.

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 reverts commit dfc85cb5f5
and b6f3fe6957.
This DB check is already in testdb (among others).
Also testdb now uses the db path set at make time by default,
so specifying the db path is optional.

I'm currently working on python bindings for alpm written in pyrex. While
working i found that declaring alpm_strerror as
char * alpm_strerror (void)
instead of
char * alpm_strerror (int err)
and then using pm_errno in the implementation instead of err, could make it
more bindings-friendly.
Dan: cleaned up and added void to declaration. Instead of replacing existing
function, add a new function called 'alpm_strerrorlast(void)'.

Introduce two new methods into the API - alpm_db_register_sync and
alpm_db_register_local, which replace the functionality of
alpm_db_register. db_register_local always returns the local DB, and
db_register_sync will always try to register a sync DB. This conceptually
separates the local DB from sync DBs in the code. Also updated the pacman
frontend to use the new functions. In addition, this changes the location
of all sync DBs in the filesystem from $DBPATH/$REPO to $DBPATH/sync/$REPO,
This removes the silly limitation that a sync DB couldn't be named 'local',
along with structurally separating sync DBs and the local DB in the
filesystem.

A bunch of changes related to my first "real" install of pacman-git into
/usr/local and trying to use it.
* Shift some uses of free -> FREE in libalpm.
* Move stat and sanity checks of config paths into libalpm from the
config and argument parsing in pacman.c.
* Fix issue where dbpath still was not defined early enough due to its
requirement for being used in alpm_db_register. This should be rewritten
so it doesn't have this dependency, but this will work for now.

There's no need for a second hashing algorithm. MD5 serves the purpose
of verifying that a package file hasn't been corrupted during download.

This basically moves the code from alpm_release, which was mostly about
unregistering all databases, to a safer alpm_db_unregister_all.
This allows to avoid modifying the dbs_sync list while iterating over it,
and and also prevent alpm_release from looping infinitely when a database
can't be unregistered.

This fixes the failure of the requiredby004 pactest in a not so pretty way,
but it gets the job done. I purposely used the extremely long name of
PM_TRANS_TYPE_REMOVEUPGRADE to be both clear and in the hope that someone
else will figure out a better solution.
Original idea from Nagy Gabor, patch updated and cleaned for current code.

I ran flawfinder and sparse over the pacman source code and found a few

I previously introduced some patches to make just about every path in
pacman/libalpm configurable; doing this with the lockfile seemed a bit too
far and we really should just place the lockfile where it belongs- with the
DB that needs locking.

This should hopefully allow multiple cache dirs to be specified in
pacman.conf and/or on the command line, and allow pacman to test
each one for the package file. The first one found to be writeable is
used as the download cache.

Remove the logmask functionality from the backend as it has been moved to
the frontend, and change the logging callback function to use pm_printf.
In addition, make much better use of va_list- use the args list instead
of a arbitrarily chosen string to print to in the logging functions.

Add some 'const' keywords all over the code to make it a bit more strict on
what you can and can't do with data. This is especially important when we
return pointers to the pacman frontend- ideally this would always be
untouchable data.

The db variable was left unset when calling alpm_db_register, leading
to a failure to ever register a sync db. Also added a check to ensure
