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.)

Update pkg-devel to 1.4.99.0 (aka 1.5 pre-alpha0)
Changes since pkg 1.3.0:
Changes you can expect in pkg 1.4 are the following:
- Loads of bug fixes
- Stricter checking of the path passed via the plist
- Removal of the bundled libyaml
- new --raw-format to chose the output format for info -R and search -R
- ABI (for freebsd, unchanged for dragonfly) is now follwing MACHINE_ARCH
(freebsd:10:x86:64 become FreeBSD:10:amd64) the old ABI is available as a
fallback in ALTABI
- pkg check now support a quiet mode
- new 3 way merge code ("stolen" from the fossil-scm) to allow automerging
configuration files
- new @config keyword to mark a file as a config file (during
upgrade/reinstallation it will try to merge the configuration with the one the
user may have modified) an option AUTOMERGE is available to prevent
automerging if automerge fails a .pkgnew file will be created along with the
untouched user version of the configuration
- The update procedure has been improved and speed up a lot (in particular for
machine with low resources)
- The unique identifier has been modified to be pkgname meaning now ports can be
moved in new categories without having to be considered a different package
- Only libraries starting by lib* are added to the provided libraries
- General speed up of all operations
- pkg set gain a -n option (equivalent to -o but works on name rather than origin)
- pkg set -o now considered deprecated
- pkg version accept '?' and '!' in pkg version limchar
- Plist parser do not accept modes like o+w g+s u+r
- @owner/@group with no argument reset the default ownership to root/wheel
- Plug regression tests into the release mechanism as mandatory
- Allow url in repository configuration to be overriden by another configuration
file
- If one of -P, -I or -R is not explicitly given on the command line do not emit
error messages while searching for a mechanism to find data about the latest
available ports.
- External keywords can now take arguments
- Directories under PREFIX are automatically handled and removed if needed
- MTREE are not packaged anymore neither extracted on final installation
- OS major checking (to determine if pkg is running on an upgraded base system)
uses the same mechanism as ABI detection instead of relying on UNAME_r which
can have false positivie on jails
- Add @dir keyword for plist which is used to package explicitly directories
(directories with non root/wheel or outside prefix) and empty directories
(@dirrm and @dirrmtry are now considered as deprecated)
- root/wheel are now considered as the default user/group when creating a
package except @owner/@group are used to change that behaviour
- Import newer version of libucl which improves error messages in case of
problem parsing manifest or configuration files
- Fix pkg register so it checks for conflicts before actually copying files on
to the filesystem
- pkg now support a new no_provide_lib annotation to preventing automatic
populating of provided libs (useful for packages bundling libraries like wine)
- Improve documentations
- Ability to select usage of IPv4/IPv6 via config, repository config or command
line
- Lots of bug fixes
Side effects:
- Convert to install-mtree target into a no-op target Add empty directories to
plist of ports that needs them to run:
- share/aclocal to devel/automake and devel/automake14
- share/applications to devel/desktop-file-utils
- share/xml share/sgml to textproc/xmlcatmgr
- Prevent check-plist to issue warnings about some @dir*
- Adjist check_leftovers.sh to not take in account anything related to mtree
- Bump the default required version of pkg to 1.3.8
Merge back bsd.pkgng.mk into bsd.port.mk
Add a note about @stopdaemon not being supported anymore

Please note announcement for special instructions at:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-announce/2014-August/000086.html
- Users need to run 'pkg check -Ba' after upgrading to pkg-1.3.7 and before
updating any other packages. This avoids needing to reinstall anything
not needed due to changed shlibs.
- People building packages for serving to other systems need to rebuild
all packages with 1.3.7.
Changes:
* Test suite fixes
* Documentation updates
* pkg-rquery(8): Add a pointer to EXAMPLES in pkg-query(8)
* If opening the db in READ_ONLY give a warning if it is missing
* Give advice on how to recreate the database if auto-updating was skipped
* Remove pkg --check-activation. It is too tempting to use.
* Make it more clear that the 'Major version' change is non-fatal
* Jobs display: Avoid excessive newline before prompt and after unprompted usage
* Remove references to PACKAGESITE/MIRROR_TYPE/PUBKEY
* Support uppercase ENABLED in repo config.
* Avoid POLA, make PACKAGESITE/MIRROR_TYPE/PUBKEY in pkg.conf fatal
* Fix self upgrade loop with pkg upgrade -Fy
* Fix self upgrade not using the new pkg binary
* pkg-{delete,autoremove}: Use a readonly lock in dry run
* pkg-convert: Add locking. EXCLUSIVE by default, READONLY with -n
* pkg-convert: Check for proper db permissions for both real and dry_run mode
* pkg-convert -r: Only a readonly lock is required for converting from the db
* pkg-convert -r: Add common db access checks
* pkg convert -r: Don't crash if unable to create the package dir
* Revert stripping shlib versions from e127d91d4.
This will require rebuilding packages on the repository and then
running pkg check -Ba to fully utilize. Until packages are rebuilt
there may be false-positive shlib reinstalls.
* pkg {register, check -B}: Fix registering provided shlibs as required
* When analysing ELF files with DEVELOPER_MODE, don't bail on first error
* Fix pkg-ssh when SSH_RESTRICT_DIR is a symlink
* Fix size calculations with hardlinks
* Fix pkg-which glob
* pkg fetch -d: Fix crash (#955)
* Progress bar improvements/fixes
* Fix ETA for fetching (#943)
* Fix progressbar stalled support
* ETA progress: Account for TCP SLOW START and weigh the first few ticks less
* Rework 'pkg update' output slightly to clarify what it is doing.
* pkg check: Add progressbar when not using -v
* pkg check: Add job counter with using -v
* pkg clean: Add progressbar
* Fix hardlink calculations (#958)
* pkg backup: Add -q
* pkg backup: Remove docs for '-d -' as it does not work.
* pkg config: Fix output for arrays/objects (#971)
* Fix RC scripts being started on deinstall rather than stopped
* Add some more asserts
* pkg-fetch.8: Remove reference to removed mirror mode
* Fix a few typos in pkg.conf.5 (#969)
* Document new configuration options. (#969)
* Fix always refetching of file:// and ftp:// repositories
* pkg query -g: Fix handling of ranges such as 'name-[0-9]*' which
is used by ports CONFLICTS checking
* Fix crash when SIGNATURE_TYPE=PUBKEY but PUBKEY is not defined
Changes:
* Fix bringing in i386-wine* as a dependency (requires rebuilding
the wine package). This is fixed, for now, by not considering
shlibs as provided by a package if they do not match the target
architecture. (#922)
!!! You should delete the i386-wine and i386-wine-devel !!!
!!! packages from your repository so they rebuild. !!!
!!! Bumping of PORTREVISION is pending due to the !!!
!!! nature of these ports. !!!
* Fix auto reinstallation of packages when shlibs/dependencies
change. This will force a 'pkg update' to run to rebuild
the local repository. Using -U will not work until this is
done. (#933)
* Fix 'pkg rquery %Av' (requires rerunning pkg-repo on remote) (#925)
* Fix pkg_solve_sat_problem assertions (#915)
* Fix 'pkg install -f' (#912)
'pkg install -R[f]' is still known to not work (#926)
* Fix 'pkg rquery -e' (#910)
* Fix 'size mismatch' errors requiring 'pkg update -f' (#906)
* Fix other cases of 'pkg update -f' being required.
* Fix 'pkg clean' to show files before confirming (#887)
* Fix upgrade/install not showing meta packages in the output (#909)
* Fix 'pkg autoremove -n' asking for confirmation
* Fix 'pkg lock' not being respected for forced operations (#911, #937).
Note that a locked package may still be deleted if the solver determines
it is no longer needed.
* Fix 'pkg delete -q'
* Replace the SAT solver with Picosat (#914). This is much more mature
and stable than our previous solver. It, along with other work, fixes
many issues with solving upgrades.
* 'pkg ssh' fixes
* Do not consider shlib versions for package provides/requires as there is
discrepency in what packages provide and what other require. For now only
rely on libname.so.
