The original patch from Nagy tried to resolve target vs target conflicts, and so broke the following pactests : sync040, sync041 and sync990 Nagy's proposal to solve this situation was to choose the interactive way, ask the user how to deal with it: either remove pkg1 or remove pkg2 or stop here. So he left this as a TODO. But instead of trying to resolve these conflicts or asking the user, I tried to find a more conservative way, looking at what the current pactests expected: If between the two conflicting packages, one provides the other, pacman will keep that one and remove the other from the target list. That breaks sync893 and sync897. But Dan agreed these two looked weird and should be changed. This commit should close FS#8897, FS#8899 and FS#9024.

Testdb will now scan the local database to check there are no conflicts. I'm not sure how it's possible to get this situation. At least pacman doesn't allow installing a package that conflicts with a local one, without removing the local one. But maybe in a very weird situation, or because of a bug, it could be possible.

This function has a limited purpose, but might be interesting to do a sanity check from a frontend (eg testdb). Also removed the private _alpm_checkconflicts function to avoid confusion. This function was used only once in libalpm, in sync.c, and was just a single line anyway. Having to do it manually makes it explicit that we are looking for two kind of conflicts (targ vs targ and db vs targ).

[pacman-dev] issues with cleaning a shared pacman cache with new -Sc behaviour
by Roman Kyrylych 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Hi! I've found an issue that appeared after the change in -Sc behaviour. It now removes "uninstalled" packages from cache which is good for majority of users, but is bad for shared pacman cache users. With a pacman cache shared between machines it is impossible to correctly clean it with pacman if a set of installed packages on them is different. I remember there was at least one script posted here or on forums that removes old version of packages from a specified directory (it was provided as a helpful tool for managing local repositories AFAIR), but I cannot find it. Could someone who have this (or similar) script please share it? It needs to be posted to our wiki page about a shared cache, and maybe Phil's rucksack script needs to be modified as well. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

The deptest code (pacman -T) used by makepkg was mostly in the frontend. There were 2 drawbacks: 1) the public splitdep function returns a pmdepend_t struct, but the _alpm_dep_free function for freeing it is private. So there was a memleak. 2) there is a helper in the backend (satisfycmp in deps.c) which makes this function much easier. So this adds a new public alpm_deptest in libalpm/deps.c, which cleans pacman_deptest in pacman/deptest.c a lot. Besides, alpm_splitdep was made private, because the frontend no longer requires it, and _alpm_dep_free is also private. Finally the deptest001 pactest was extended.

[pacman-dev] pacman -S on already installed package doesn't ask for reinstall
by Roman Kyrylych 21 Jan '08

21 Jan '08

Hi! # pacman -S ttf-ms-fonts warning: ttf-ms-fonts-2.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling It was asking user for confirmation before which I think was logical, because if user just forgot he/she has this package installed - this would allow to avoid creating of unnecessary .pacnew files. Either I missed this change or forgot about it. Could someone enlighten me why this was done? -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

[pacman-dev] New pacman-git release
by Dan McGee 19 Jan '08

19 Jan '08

I pushed a new pacman-git release (20080118) to its usual place tonight for both architectures. Please test and report back (good or bad!) on your findings. Think of this as a 3.1.1 RC candidate- it is built from the current tip of the maint branch. <http://projects.archlinux.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=pacman.git;a=commit;h=8ec9a6…> I'm having no problems with this version on i686. For those of you that use makepkg more than I do, please try to give that a bit of a workout. -Dan
