* Change the versioned provision format.Chantry Xavier2008-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the 'provname provver' format to 'provname=provver'. In .PKGINFO, the provisions are copied from the PKGBUILD without quotes. So the provision version was actually handled as a different provision... See FS#9171. Dan: Unfortunately we have to change our original specification for versioned provisions with this patch, but it ends up being the simpler and cleaner solution in the long run, and if there is any time to change it the time is now before many packages have been built. Keeping the ' ' based format would have required us to do special parsing in repo-add, as well as being susceptible to users not using quotes in their provides array. Hopefully this will resolve the issues we had with our initial plan. Sorry for the confusion.

* Rename -t --orphans to -t --unrequired (FS#9144).Chantry Xavier2008-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* Documentation updatesNathan Jones2008-01-08

* Remove makeworld from pacman packageDan McGee2008-01-06
| | | | | | | This is an Arch-specific tool (although others could find use in it), so off to the standalone ABS package it goes. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

* doc: rename manlink macro to linkmanDan McGee2007-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor.

By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* Ensure that manpages are always distributed and installedDan McGee2007-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 012f7939784358b02726c169543aa99436439335 was a bit misguided in its thinking, and resulted in a package built without asciidoc enabled not installing the manpages to the system on a 'make install' operation. Fix this behavior by making manpages required in a normal build, and in order to disable their existence, the '--disable-doc' option must be used. Hopefully this solves manpage issues for both developers and package builders while allowing as much flexibility as possible. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

* Add new --needed option for -S.Chantry Xavier2007-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Versioned provisions.Nagy Gabor2007-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces versioned provisions in "provision 1.0-1" format. _alpm_db_whatprovides was modified accordingly (added sync500.py), alpm_depcmp was modified accordingly (add043.py passes now; added add044.py and add045.py). Notes: alpm_db_search now uses the whole versioned %PROVIDES% string in its search. debug logging was simplified in alpm_depcmp. Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu> [Xavier: fixed a few typos, duplicate const strings with strdup before modifying them, put some debugging back in alpm_depcmp, minor code cleanups (var/function renaming), added a note in PKGBUILD man page.] Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> [Dan: made strcmp checks clearer, added a comment] Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
