libarchive 3.3.3:
Avoid super-linear slowdown on malformed mtree files
Many fixes for building with Visual Studio
NO_OVERWRITE doesn't change existing directory attributes
New support for Zstandard read and write filters
Changes since 5.7.3:
* Warn about dependency patterns that are missing a version number,
such as ${PYPKGPREFIX}-sqlite3:../../databases/py-sqlite3.
* Suggest to replace the := assignment operator with the :sh modifier,
in some cases where the variable is not obviously used at load time.
Changes since 5.7.2:
PLIST files are checked for non-ASCII characters. Even though pkgsrc
sets up the environment with LC_ALL=C, there are still some cases
of encoding errors. The case discussed on the tech-pkg mailing list
was lang/go112.
The checks for variable permissions ("may not be set in this file")
have been reworked completely. Many of the variable permissions had
different rules for Makefile and Makefile.common. These different
rules tried to prevent accidental overwriting of variables. Starting
in July 2018, pkglint got a check for redundant variables that is
far more accurate than the previous variable permissions. Therefore
these fine-grained permissions are no longer necessary. This removes
a few hundred wrong warnings about insufficient permissions.
The check that adds missing SHA512 hashes to distinfo files has been
fixed to work correctly in DIST_SUBDIR cases.
Improved the checks regarding tools that are used by a package but
not added to USE_TOOLS. For example, the "make" tool is always
available, as are all tools that are added to TOOLS_CREATE.
Lots of small improvements, as always.
In addition to adding in BUILD_DEPENDS, catch up to long-ago
improvements to pkgsrc and also add in TOOL_DEPENDS.
Thanks to Hauke Fath for reporting the issue.
Changes since 5.7.1:
* Fixed detection of GNU_CONFIGURE=yes combined with USE_LANGUAGES
missing c. This combination tends to fail in the configure phase.
* When the distinfo doesn't contain all hashes for the downloaded
distfiles (typically SHA512 is missing) and the distfiles are actually
downloaded to ${PKGSRCDIR}/distfiles, pkglint can now add the missing
hashes. It only does this if there is at least one existing hash
and if all existing hashes are correct.
* The check for redundant variables has been improved considerably.
Before there were several situations in which pkglint didn't get the
redundant variable definitions right because its internal model only
mimicked reality. The model has been improved and so have the
diagnostics.
* Pkglint only warns about wrong permissions (for defining or using
a variable) when it knows the type of the variable and the permissions
for the current file. Before, it had also warned if the permissions
for the current file were not explicitly defined.
* CFLAGS and LDFLAGS may be appended in buildlink3.mk files. This
had been disallowed before, for no apparent reason. There are several
places in pkgsrc where especially CFLAGS.${OPSYS} is appended to.
* Cleaned up internal handling of relative paths. Previously pkglint
sometimes resolved relative paths using the wrong base directory,
which led to all kinds of wrong warnings and strange behavior.
* Fixed lots of edge cases when parsing Makefile lines. These cases
don't occur often but experience tells that the most fundamental code
must be as correct as possible (see the handling of relative paths
above).
* Lots of refactoring and housekeeping, as always.
## Version 0.11.7 (2019-03-07)
* Switch back to NetBSDfr/pkgin as the upstream repository.
* Improve database safety.
* Fix clang -Wmissing-noreturn and -Wformat-nonliteral warnings.
* Fix some typos in the manual page.
Changes since 5.6.12:
* Many of the -C and -W command line options have been removed since
they are not used in practice. The -Wall and -Call options continue
to work though; these are the only options mentioned in the pkgsrc
guide.
* When a PLIST file contains redundant libtool libraries (.la and the
corresponding .so), there is only a single warning per file.
* Warnings about the package COMMENT are now strictly ordered from left
to right.
* The hashes for all distfiles must now contain the SHA512 hash. This
hash has been added to many distfiles in 2015. It's time now to
enforce it on all other distfiles as well.
* Makefile fragments that are included inside an .elif exists(...)
are not reported as missing.
* The check for redundant variables and accidentally overwritten
variables has been improved. Now the warning occurs at the later
definition. This especially applies to cases where a file is included
and after that, some of its variables are overridden. Variables in
unrelated files are no longer marked as redundant.
* When a package contains multiple definitions of a single variable
(typical for Makefile.common), the later definition overrides the
earlier definition. That way, the location of DISTINFO_FILE and
PATCHDIR is resolved correctly.
Changes since 5.6.11:
* In buildlink3.mk files, print the paths relative
to the line, not to the pkgsrc root.
* When explaining that a variable cannot be set/used because of wrong
permissions, list the permissions. This provides more transparency
than just stating that the desired action is not allowed.
* When pkglint checks a pkgsrc-wip package, don't warn about malformed
lines in doc/CHANGES-* since pkgsrc-wip users typically cannot do
anything about these errors.
* In profiling mode, not only the code coverage and the performance
statistics are dumped, the whole heap is also dumped to see which
parts of pkglint consume the most heap memory. Pkglint now needs
less heap memory than before, which mainly affects full scans.
* The checks for absolute pathnames have gone. They were of questionable
value since pkglint has failed to give proper advice on how to fix
them properly, at least for the last 12 years.
* The check that pkgsrc-wip packages should only use exact CVS Ids
(the unexpanded variant) has been disabled again. It occurred about
16000 times but even fixing it wouldn't improve anything since it
was mostly a formatting issue without any practical consequences.
* Warn about trailing variable modifiers like in ${VAR:S,from,to,extra}.
* Properly parse ${VAR:!command!}.
* Suggest to replace SUBST_SED with SUBST_VARS where possible, even
with complicated shell quoting. Pkglint can autofix most of these
overly verbose cases.
* Load builtin.mk whenever the corresponding buildlink3.mk file is
included. This fixes several warnings about undefined variables
(especially for packages using OpenSSL).
* Parse .for lines like bmake does since 2015, splitting words like
in brk_string.
* Optionally show a warning even if it cannot be autofixed by pkglint.
This is useful for the SUBST_VARS replacement since even when
pkglint cannot automatically replace the code, there are still cases
where it can warn at least.
* As always, several refactorings.
Changes in version 2.1
======================
**Released on 2019-01-14.**
* Issue 3: Added a new `PBULK_LOG` setting to point at a location that
holds all build logs, and made the `build` command print out details
about such logs on success and failure.
* Issue 4: Fixed the installable bootstrap kit generated during a build
to not leak pkg_comp-internal paths.
* Issue 10: Fixed generation of pkg_summary so that it includes all
packages and not only those that were explicitly given to the `auto`
or `build` commands after a clean rebuild of the sandbox.
* PR 20: Fixed the default Git repository from jsonn's to NetBSD's as
it has moved upstream.
* Added a new `PKG_DEVELOPER` setting to enable pkgsrc development
from within the sandbox.
Changes since 5.6.10:
* Improved the wording of several warnings
* Fixed parsing of complicated dependency patterns such as
{ssh{,6}-[0-9]*,openssh-[0-9]*}. Pkglint still doesn't understand
them but at least it doesn't mark them as "unknown" anymore.
* Lots of refactoring, as usual. This is the last part of the big
refactoring, therefore future changes to pkglint are expected to be
smaller than in the previous 3 months.
systemd detection. Tested on CentOS 6 (Red Hat init) and 7 (systemd),
Devuan (Debian init), and Debian 9 (systemd).
Add RCDBOOT_STYLE to BUILD_DEFS.
Bump version.
dependency ordering, so we compute the order of such rc.d scripts as are
present at install time (via a new "list" action in sbin/rc.d-boot).
Anything added or removed later is the sysadmin's job. I guess this is
what OpenBSD sysadmins expect.
While here, make "stop" run the commands in reverse order, like NetBSD
does on shutdown.
Bump version.
meaning of "rc.conf" (it's their "defaults/rc.conf", not to be edited).
If we're on OpenBSD and there's an /etc/rc.conf.local, source it.
Bump version.
Changes since 5.6.9:
* ALTERNATIVES files are correctly checked now. Before, pkglint had
suggested to remove the @PREFIX/ from the alternative, which was
wrong and simply didn't work.
* Diagnostics about variable assignments are ordered to report the
left-hand side first and then everything to the right of the
assignment operator.
* The pkglint output is escaped properly to avoid sending unwanted
escape sequences to the terminal.
* The items in .for loops are parsed taking "double" and 'single'
quotes into account since bmake does it in the same way since 2015.
* In DESCR files, overly long lines are only warned about if they
contain a space and therefore can be made shorter.
* In DESCR files, text like ${PREFIX} only gets a note if it refers
to a commonly known pkgsrc variable. This avoids distraction when
a package mentions ${prefix}/bin or ${template.property}.
* Lots of refactorings and small changes.
Changes since 5.6.8:
* In addition to the pkglint binary, the whole pkglint code is installed as
a library, so that other packages can use the code for doing their own
checks on pkgsrc packages, Makefiles, shell programs, or the other file
types from pkgsrc.
* BUILDLINK_*.* may be used in all files.
* Lots of refactorings
