With the PKG_PORTSDIR make argument set, Release 1.2.2 will properly build
pkg when PORTSDIR doesn't equal the default /usr/ports, as is the standard
case with DragonFly.
Additionally, pkg(8) and pkg-static(8) man pages are conditionally edited
to remove references to the -j option when libjail isn't found on the
system. This extra-patch should never be used on FreeBSD.
Changes:
- Fix pkg rquery always printing index like lines
- Fix pkg -vv suggestion so it print something actually usable
- Fix shlib's -P and -R options were swapped round.
- Replace broken pkg_repos_count() by pkg_repos_total_count() and pkg_repos_activated_count()
- Fix parsing of options (in manifest)

- Fix support for dependencies with the same name (grrrr Fix you port if they have package name collision !!!!)
- Fix pkg info -R in case multiple dependencies has the same name
Changelog:
- Improved build system
- Allow to hook plugins, before closing the local db if it was opened in RW mode
- Allow ARCH to be printed by pkg info
- New pkg bootstrap subcommand that is the counter part of the pkg(7) bootstrap subcommand
- Use port specified in the SRV entries to connect to a given mirror
- Properly support srv priority/weigh when ordering mirrors
- Lots of spelling/grammar fixes
- Broken incremental pkg repo support was removed.
- ABI is now checked again using globs:
* a 'noarch' package should just specify: ARCH: 'freebsd:*'
* a package working on both i386 and amd64: ARCH: 'freebsd:9:x86:*'
- new pkg config subcommand to allow direct query of options
- options can now have a description
- pkg repo can now take new arguments:
pkg repo [path] [rsa_key|'signing_command: <command>']
This allow calling external command to perform the signing and
pass the checksum to be signed in the command stdin.
- in case pkg info is querying a file or is a single direct match
query then default on -f
- pkg info -q is now equivalent of pkg info -qa
- expat is now always bundled (for vuxml)
- vuxml is now the default source for pkg audit
- Accept empty/comment only configuration files
- Print a pkg name only once - even if multiple vulns were found - when using -q
in pkg audit
- pkg info now default on glob matching
- Support for pkg+foo url scheme where foo can be (http, https, ftp).
- pkg add is now able to read the packages from a pipe or a non-regular
file '-' is an alias for stdin, this also works from pipes, fifos,
unix domain sockets etc.
- New 'fingerprint' kind of signature:
if a repository is declared using the fingerprint type of
signature, a fingerprint directory should also be provided.
Inside that fingerprint directory should be 2 directories:
trusted and revoked. Those directories will contains files (in
yaml/ucl format) containing the fingerprint of the trusted
certificated and the revoked ones:
--- begins --
function: sha256
fingerprint: an_hex_representation_of_the_fingerprint
--- ends ---
All unknown attribute will be silently ignored to allow extending
in the future.
It also support multiple signatures inside the catalog. the
catalog should provide the signature in the following form:
name.sig
name.cert
- packagesite in pkg.conf is deprecated in favour using dedicated
repository configuration files
- REPO_DIR is now a list instead of a simple string
- New git like aliases to allow creating custom commands
- Allow using '?' operator in pkg query expressions
- Fix ssh:// support
- New PKG_SSH_ARGS to allow passing custom arguments to ssh command
used for the ssh:// protocol
- Do not generate catalogs in pkg 1.0 format anymore.
- YAML is replaced by UCL format:
Both formats are really simular. pkg(8) will falls back on parsing YAML
when the UCL parser fail. And will emit a warning to the
user showing a syntax that is compatible with both YAML and UCL.
More informations on UCL: https://github.com/vstakhov/libucl
- Dependencies on library is now automatic via pkg register and pkg
create
- Auto upgrade of pkg(8) now restart the upgrade process automatically
- Lots of bug fixes discovered by Coverity Scan
- New debug level traces
- Bug fixes in zsh completion
- rquery can now take a -I argument to output index like lines (needed for
bsdconfig)
- Skip self upgrade with -F is passed
- Autodetect if libelf should be used bundled
- Lots of bug fixes
Thanks a lot to all people allowed this release to happen, may that be from providing
code, ideas, submitting bugs, documenting or just supporting.
Changes:
* When using SRV mirrors, order the mirrors by the advertised
priority and weight. This should fix 'pkg update' using mirror
A while 'pkg upgrade' and 'pkg fetch' end up using mirrors
A, B and C, resulting in checksum errors due to not all mirrors
being updated at the same time.
* Add support for 'pkg+http://' URL scheme and deprecate
'http://' when using SRV mirroring. This is only a cosmetic change
that encourages users to not try loading the PACKAGESITE into
a browser to view it.

To use this new version:
Ports users (or in building factories: poudriere/tinderbox):
Add WITH_PKGNG=devel to your make.conf
pkg set -o ports-mgmt/pkg:ports-mgmt/pkg-devel
Binary package users, if the remote repository is providing pkg 1.1:
pkg set -o ports-mgmt/pkg:ports-mgmt/pkg-devel
pkg upgrade
Note that pkg 1.1 can use a repository created for pkg 1.0 and vis versa.

*** Binary Package Builders: It is recommended to rebuild
all packages and then run 'pkg check -Ba' and 'pkg
upgrade' on your client servers once. This will allow
the new shlib tracking to reinstall packages that have
changed shlib requirements. This step is optional.
Changes:
* Always track provided SHLIBS now when packages are
created
* Automatically reinstall packages when their needed shlibs
or dependencies change. This removes the need to run
'pkg install -Rf' in many, but not all, cases.
* New DB lock strategy when stored on a network filesystem
* pkg version: Show ? when package is missing on remote
* pkg check -s: Return non-zero exit status if a mismatch
is found
* pkg audit: Implement -q
* Add more periodic scripts
* Add bash completion script
* pkg audit: Performance optimizations
* Build fixes
* Add some forward-compatibility support for upcoming 1.1

Changes:
- Fixes pkg-[r]query %d only returning the first
depedency. This could have resulted in packages
being built without a full depedency list. It is
recommended to rebuild any packages built in the

- Replace tab with space in pkg-descr
Changes:
- gcc44/gcc48 build fixes
- pkg-install now returns 0 when requested pkgs already
installed
- Fixed pkgconf file handling
- Hard-coded post-deinstall list has been moved to
bsd.pkgng.mk as _FORCE_POST_PATTERNS so we can update
that instead of having a pkgng release every time a new
one is identified.
- Add pkg check -n for -d to be scriptable
- Fix memory corruption if WWW passed directly to manifest
- COMMENT/Description/WWW are now required to make valid
packages
- Store fetched packages as 0644
- Add events for conflicts
- Add -F to pkg-install
- Pipe fixes
- Misc fixes
due to @unexec gio-querymodules running before files were deinstalled.

pkgng tried since beta14 to create reproducible package: aka 1 package build
twice will get exactly the same checksums, this revealed some problem with
python that were workaround in beta15 but lots of build system seems to really
not approciate it, while the feature is good and might be reactivated in the
futur, the ports tree and upstream build systems, need a lot of work to be able~
to deal with 100% reproducible packages :(
- changes:
- new -d to pkg fetch to download the dependencies along with the package
- fix automatic flag tracking over installs and upgrades
- fix hardlink detection (size calculation of git is now sane again :))
- pkg remove is now an alias to pkg delete
- fix a bug with shlibs track causing segfault
- pkg check -r now updates flatesiz and checksums
- all generated yaml now contain a yaml object separator, pkg info -Ra can be
pased directly to a yaml parser
- pkg query and pkg rquery do not fallback anymore on matching everything if
-g -x or -X is passed in arguments
- fix python packing on pointyhat/tinderbox with a ugly workaround for now
- pkg info '' and pkg search '' now complains about empty pattern
- pkg rquery now return 1 if nothing matched
- changes:
* new DEVELOPER_MODE option: it will fail instead of just printing warnings
* package creation is now reproductible, the same package built twice will
have the same checksum
* pkg install, upgrade and fetch now automatically performs the update of the
remote metadata if necessary
* portmaster patch: use_pkgng is not nessecary anymore
* portmaster patch: new format you can just copy it in the
ports-mgmt/portmaster/files
* portmaster patch: support for portmaster -o
* portmaster patch: Enable --check-depends, aliasing pkg check -adv
* pkg set -A to mark a package as automatically installed (-a now matches all:
better consistency with other commands)
* new -D option for pkg info (same as pkg_info -D)
* pkg set -o now change origin for a port and everything that depends on it
* new -L option for pkg {fetch,install,upgrade} to skip updating metadata.
* when a package isn't valid, print human information about what is missing
* some fixes in ordering (revealed by p5-XML-Sax mess)
