[pacman-dev] [PATCH] libmakepkg: when stripping split debug symbols, warn on duplicate paths
by Eli Schwartz 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

Trying to strip multiple files installed to the same filepath (in different components of a split package) can produce surprising results if those files are built using different options. Per FS#63356 this is not a supported PKGBUILD configuration. Instead, warn about such cases when producing debug packages.

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] libmakepkg: fix empty arguments in parseopts
by Ethan Sommer 05 Nov '19

Previously parseopts checked if there was an argument by checking that the string was non-empty, resulting in empty arguments being incorrectly considered non-existent.

[pacman-dev] Alternatives system brainstorm
by Allan McRae 04 Nov '19

04 Nov '19

Hi all, Some further brainstorming on alternatives system. Last time, I suggested something like: alternatives=(python->python3) But as was pointed out, there may be many other things you want to bring along with the python binary. Some directly related: /usr/share/man/man1/python3.1.gz -> python.1.gz Some less directly related: /usr/bin/idle /usr/bin/pydoc /usr/bin/python-config Another example would be lua, where you want to set the main interpreter and the header directory. In Debian & Fedora land, these additional files are called slaves. Note that both those distros use the "same" tool to manage these things. In addition, each alternative is given a priority. So if (e.g.) two python2 and python3 are installed at the same time, it would select the one with the higher priority. Fedora also has "ghost" files (not sure about Debian). I.e. the python3 package contains a ghost /usr/bin/python, so searching file databases gives a match. Now how does that inform our potential implementation? Mostly, I don't like that they set up all the alternatives in the post install with one long command passed to their tool. I'd prefer we had a file with a list of needed symlinks so this could happen automatically. So here is a starting point for discussion: In the PKGBUILD: alternatives=('python::python3') that would look for a file in our build root called "python3.alternatives" and include it in the package root. Note we could have more than one such entry. This file could look like: /usr/bin/python3 -> python /usr/bin/idle3 -> idle /usr/include/example3/ -> example/ Could also include an optional priority statement? Or should that be captured in the PKGBUILD? The file would be placed at /var/lib/pacman/alternatives/python/python3. Any comments on that as a starting point. Cheers, Allan

[pacman-dev] [PATCH v3] libmakepkg: add optional argument support to parseopts
by Ethan Sommer 04 Nov '19

04 Nov '19

Adds a "?" suffix that can be used to indicate that an option's argument is optional. This allows options to have a default behaviour when the user doesn't specify one, e.g.: --color=[when] being able to behave like --color=auto when only --color is passed Options with optional arguments given on the command line will be returned in the form "--opt=optarg" and "-o=optarg". Despite that not being the syntax for passing an argument with a shortopt (trying to pass -o=foo would make -o's argument "=foo"), this is done to allow the caller to split the option and its optarg easily Signed-off-by: Ethan Sommer <e5ten.arch(a)gmail.com> --- scripts/libmakepkg/util/parseopts.sh.in | 116 +++++++++++++++--------- test/scripts/parseopts_test.sh | 12 ++- 2 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/libmakepkg/util/parseopts.sh.in b/scripts/libmakepkg/util/parseopts.sh.in index c056cb1e..42540438 100644 --- a/scripts/libmakepkg/util/parseopts.sh.in +++ b/scripts/libmakepkg/util/parseopts.sh.in @@ -18,16 +18,23 @@ # along with this program.
