all depending packages have their dependencies satisfied by the new
package. Essentially, split off this particular behavior as a special
case of -f, so that -f works as before, unforced works as before, and
one can give -D to override exactly this check, leaving all other
checks intact.
The -D flag is in support of make replace, as the workflow for make
replace is that inter-package dependencies are sometimes violated (but
then one must replace the depending packages, which is what
pkg_rolling-replace does via the unsafe_depends flags).
Bump PKGTOOLS_VERSION.
Add missing break statement in option parsing of "pkg_add -C", riding
the version bump.
Discussed extensively on tech-pkg@ over the summer.
OK pkgsrc-pmc@.
- Recognize -C for pkg_add like the rest of the tools do
- Do the existing check for pkg_add -f, it makes the combination of
-f and -U a bit less surprising
- Fix option handling for CHECK_VULNERABILITIES (from spz@)
- Make end-of-life check the default. pkg_install.conf(5) can be used to
override the default. The existing admin -e & co continue to work as
before.
Extract dependencies of libarchive from the pkgconfig file and thereby
drop knowledge of the needed libraries.
At least some versions of HP-UX are known to not support %zu, add a
workaround. This is using the black list approach for now.
Recognize xz as compression type for pkg_create.
The first time an error is hit while fetching packages, try to reget
from the same position. This works around the server closing the
connection while fetching dependencies.
- Try to detect common forms of pkgdb corruption and issue a warning in
that case.
- Refactor the pkg_vulnerabilities logic to use the compression support
from libarchive. This reduces the amount zlib/bzip2 interaction to the
linkage.
- Restore PKG_PREFIX in pkg_delete (PR 42731)
- Ensure that the current pkg_install version is at least as new as
the version used to build the package
- Refactor man pages:
- Move description of environmental variables into pkg_install.conf(5)
- Remove a bunch of dead references
- Avoid using hard-coded path names that can easily be overridden by
the user.
- Refactor pkgdb related logic, so that -K behaves consistently.
- Add some helper functions to isolate more places from the pkgdb
layout.
- Sync license list.
- Handle PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR consistently as option too.
- Utilize connection cache from libfetch.
- Add helper target for cat pages updates.
Do not overwrite a string with itself using snprintf. This breaks
setting the pkgdb directory internally on Linux. Explicitly check
if the string is the same and otherwise just use xstrdup.
