[pacman-dev] wanted: script to list uninstalled optdepends and packages that need them
by Allan McRae 16 Jun '09

16 Jun '09

Hi all, I had a thought today that a script to list package that are optdepends but not installed could be quite useful... I have not written one, but thought it would be good for pacman-contrib if someone wanted to contribute. Example output: tk - optional for: ruby - for Ruby/TK python - for IDLE, pynche and modulator fakeroot - optional for: pacman - for makepkg usage as normal user So get script writing! Preferably in bash or perl (which the current scripts use). Allan

[pacman-dev] My "universal" git repo
by Nagy Gabor 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

Hi! http://repo.or.cz/w/pacman-ng.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/universal I've managed to implement some nice features for -U by "moving" upgrade_prepare to sync.c. 1. Conflict resolving should now work (upgrade051.py now passes), FS#3492 implemented. (This was my main motivation.) 2. -U --syncdeps now can resolve dependencies by downloading and installing them from sync repos. In this case, pacman can skip unresolvable targets like with -S. If this patch is going to be accepted, I ask everyone to test "pacman-universal" extensively (there are some changes in UI as well!), because sync.c is quite complex, so it has a chance that I broke something there (and this is a "radical" change, this is a big responsibility). There are no failing pactests, which is a good starting point. Bye

I suppose that would make the > test in _alpm_sync_prepare more difficult. You are right here, this codepart would look better with PM_TRANS_FLAG_RESOLVEDEPS. I decided to go with NORESOLVEDEPS, because RESOLVEDEPS is the default behavior (for -S), and usually we have a flag for the non-default setting (NODEPS, NOCONFLICTS etc). With RESOLVEDEPS, that flag should be always passed with -S. > Or (my favourite), get rid of this altogether and just assume the deps > are to be resolved by default and expect "-Ud" if someone does not want > that to be done? I can not see a reason someone would not want to sync > deps if there are not already installed and it makes the -U and -S > operations even more universal. Yes, I was also thinking about this, but I decided to keep the old default behaviour as much as possible. [Btw, we have a hidden API change here, alpm front-ends have to pass PM_TRANS_FLAG_NORESOLVEDEPS with -U to keep the old behavior.] If Dan also prefers your way, I will happily implement that (because the code would be nicer, indeed).
