From e63366ae5e701d8e9ae33144f68e8786b092a468 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nagy Gabor Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2007 18:45:46 +0100 Subject: New remove option : -u / --unneeded (FS#6505). With --unneeded option 'pacman -R' doesn't stop in case of dependency error; it removes the needed-dependency targets from the target-list instead. See also: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-October/009653.html . The patch also adds a new causingpkg field to pmdepmissing_t which indicates the to-be-removed package which would cause a dependency break. This is needed, because miss->depend.name may be a provision. miss->causingpkg will be useful in -R dependency error messages too. [Xavier: renamed inducer to causingpkg, removed the _alpm_pkgname_pkg_cmp helper function as requested by Aaron. This might be added by a further commit. Other small cleanups, updated manpage and bash completion.] Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier --- src/pacman/pacman.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/pacman/pacman.c b/src/pacman/pacman.c index 61e0042a..7d584955 100644 --- a/src/pacman/pacman.c +++ b/src/pacman/pacman.c @@ -90,6 +90,7 @@ static void usage(int op, const char * const myname) printf(_(" -k, --dbonly only remove database entry, do not remove files\n")); printf(_(" -n, --nosave remove configuration files as well\n")); printf(_(" -s, --recursive remove dependencies also (that won't break packages)\n")); + printf(_(" -u, --unneeded remove unneeded packages (that won't break packages)\n")); } else if(op == PM_OP_UPGRADE) { printf("%s: %s {-U --upgrade} [%s] <%s>\n", str_usg, myname, str_opt, str_file); printf("%s:\n", str_opt); @@ -330,6 +331,7 @@ static int parseargs(int argc, char *argv[]) {"unrequired", no_argument, 0, 't'}, {"upgrades", no_argument, 0, 'u'}, {"sysupgrade", no_argument, 0, 'u'}, + {"unneeded", no_argument, 0, 'u'}, {"verbose", no_argument, 0, 'v'}, {"downloadonly", no_argument, 0, 'w'}, {"refresh", no_argument, 0, 'y'}, @@ -472,6 +474,7 @@ static int parseargs(int argc, char *argv[]) case 'u': config->op_s_upgrade = 1; config->op_q_upgrade = 1; + config->flags |= PM_TRANS_FLAG_UNNEEDED; break; case 'v': (config->verbose)++; break; case 'w': -- cgit v1.2.3
