During upgrades/reinstall javavmwrapper 2.5 pre deinstall script deletes the pkg
temporary files preventing to finish the upgrade.
A fixed version of javavmwrapper will be made soon, this hack will remain in the
ports tree and not in pkg(8) itself. This hack is made to not bother users is
only affecting upgrade/reinstall phase not proper deinstall

- update internal expat to 2.2.0
- fix external solver
- fix build on freebsd pre 9.2
- fix warnings on armv6
- fix solver issue resulting in missing conflicts or reinstalling unneeded
packages
- add a mini summary at the end of the output
- Important fixes in the solver
- When conflicts are found, they are explicitly printed
- Reduce namecache contention a bit
- Temporary files created during extraction are now hidden
- Accept symlinks to directories when pkg is expecting a directory
Note that people are using mirror_type: http when they should not
most probably due to bad documentation on our side so we will improve that later
mirror_type: http is only useful if you actually host multiple mirror of your
repos see pkg-repository(5).
Changes:
- Fix: setting date on system not POSIX 2008 compliant (like FreeBSD 8)
- Fix: running pkg in env where the 0 file descriptor is closd
- Fix: make http mirror type respect the specified port
- Fix: chown/chmod on linux
- Fix: pkg ssh
- Improved upgrade chain in multi repo environment
- Update libucl to latest version
Due to too many bad quality ports, for now we are back in not checking pre/post
deinstall scripts at all except if DEVELOPER_MODE=yes is set, we hope to readd
those checks once the ports have been fixed
New features:
- new vital flag that prevent from removing a package with pkg delete when not specifying -f
- upgrade process now has atomicity per packages meaning now we can safely check the return of the pre* scripts
- handle ctrl-c during upgrade/install/update
- solver improvements
- pkg clean now runs in a capsicum sandbox on supported plateforms
Changes:
- pkg delete now fails if one tries to delete it (the pkg package) without -f. Before it was just warning and skipping it
- pkg install --from-root has been renamed pkg install --recursive to avoir confusion
Fixes:
- correctly handle hardlinked setuid files
- better handling of setuid
- fix elf analysis when some bad libraries have SONAME specified by empty
- fix elf analysis when a binary provides elf_notes but not the expected ones and are still valid freebsd binaries
(this fixes the case when libgdk_pixbuf was not found as a provided lib on i386)
- NAMESERVER option is now working again and inputs are better checked
- lots of bug fixes: potential leaks mostly
Changes:
- Update libucl to latest version which fixes an issue with empty pkg.conf (regression test added)
- pkg install on an already installed package returns 0 again this regression was introduced when fixing pkg lock (regression test added)
This release fixes regressions:
- detection of new version of pkg could fail
- if the all process operation would have an inpact of less than 1MB on the FS
then the action is proceed with out asking the user to acknowledge it
Changes:
- Support new "vital" notion: prevent from implicit deletion
- Improved support for OpenBSD/bitrig (still lacks some functions in libc)
- Improved ZSH completion
- Updated libucl

- Allow to specify "inline" respositories in pkg.conf
- ipv6 fixes
- Allow to restrict the accepted url schemes
- More commands supports "-q"
- Multiple bug fixes
- As usual multiple new bugs
- Improved support for shlibs dependency generation when packaging base via ALLOW_BASE_SHLIBES
Changes:
- Fix hardlinks extraction with --rootdir
- Relax url scheme acceptance to allow file:/ and file://
- Accept pkg+ for url scheme where it was never intended to be used, because users used it anyway
- Remove pkg-message
Changes:
- Allow to limit the valid url scheme in pkg.conf
- Add support for SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH: https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/
- Fix pkg check -d
- Fix testsuite with kyua 0.12
- Fix completion on pkg info -l
- Reduce te probability to get an infinite loop on pkg version check
- Fix pkg version -q
- Update libfetch to the latest version from head
- Debug mode is now verbose when fetching
- Fix segfault with empty HTTP_USER_AGENT
- Fix segfault when parsing invalid URL
- Fix build on OS X
- Better error reporint on issue during pkg create
Note that this release will be merged to quarterly branch in 10 days
Changes:
- Fix cross building
- Improved zsh completion
- Improved error messages
- Improved documentation
- Bug fixes in the solver
- Allow to specify repositories directly via pkg.conf
- Allow multiple version of the same package in a repository
- Fix ipv6 testing in configuration
Changes since pkg-1.5 series
- Lots of improvements in the solver (in particular fixes the case like the
recent jpeg upgrade)
- Lots of fixes in the 3 way merge code
- pkg add can now work without a version specified in the dependency line
- pkg check -d now also check the required libraries
- Improved support for partial upgrades
- Improved zsh completion support
- Improved linux support (now all regression tests passes on linux)
- Messages can now be context aware: (only print a given message during
installation, upgrade - version aware -, removal, or always)
- @keywords now accepts new entries to add context aware messages
- Add the ability to generate graphiz's dot format representation of the
solver's problem
- pkg search now default on showing the comments of of the matched packages
- Lots of bug fixes and code cleanup
- Document @{pre,post}[un]exec in plist added in pkg 1.5
UNIQUENAME was never unique, it was only used by USE_LDCONFIG and now,
we won't have conflicts there.
Use PKGBASE instead of LATEST_LINK in PKGLATESTFILE, the *only* consumer
is pkg-devel, and it works just fine without LATEST_LINK as pkg-devel
has the correct PKGNAME anyway.
Now that UNIQUENAME is gone, OPTIONSFILE is too. (it's been called
OPTIONS_FILE now.)

Thanks to all testers and contributors,

bug since it has been spotted on dragonfly
