[pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/4] meson: drop checks for things we don't use
by Dave Reisner 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

This was ported over from the AC_CHECK_{FUNCS,HEADERS} lists in configure.ac, but I never actually checked if the resulting CPP defines are used. Turns out, lots of symbols, not a lot of define usage. --- meson.build | 25 ------------------------- 1 file changed, 25 deletions(-) diff --git a/meson.build b/meson.build index 91f05031..c2ed707a 100644 --- a/meson.build +++ b/meson.build @@ -163,38 +163,13 @@ foreach header : [ endforeach foreach sym : [ - 'dup2', - 'fork', - 'getcwd', 'getmntent', 'getmntinfo', - 'gettimeofday', - 'memmove', - 'memset', - 'mkdir', - 'realpath', - 'regcomp', - 'rmdir', - 'setenv', - 'setlocale', - 'strcasecmp', - 'strchr', - 'strcspn', - 'strdup', - 'strerror', 'strndup', 'strnlen', - 'strnlen', - 'strrchr', - 'strsep', 'strsep', - 'strstr', - 'strtol', 'swprintf', 'tcflush', - 'tcflush', - 'uname', - 'wcwidth', ] have = cc.has_function(sym, args : '-D_GNU_SOURCE') conf.set10('HAVE_' + sym.to_upper(), have) -- 2.22.0

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/2] sighandler: block signals while handling SIGSEGV
by Andrew Gregory 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

If we get SIGSEGV we need to bail out quickly, leaving other signals unblocked could lead to other signal handlers getting triggered.

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] bump to latest version
by Fabian Bläse 26 Jul '19

26 Jul '19

This fixes a tracepath bug which caused IPv6 tracepaths to use a wrong IPv6 address. iputils now uses the meson build system. The build commands are adjusted accordingly. perl-sgmls doesn't seem to be necessary anymore. It therefore is removed from the build dependency list.

[pacman-dev] Obscurity in pacman.conf.5 man page
by Mario Blättermann 05 Jul '19

05 Jul '19

Hello, I stumbled upon the following sentence in pacman.conf.5: repo-add /home/pkgs/custom.db.tar.gz /home/pkgs/*.pkg.tar.gz The above command will generate a compressed database named /home/pkgs/custom.db.tar.gz. Note that the database must be of the form defined in the configuration file and {ext} is a valid compression type as documented in repo-add(8). Although the example database name has the static extension ».gz« (which is currently used in Archlinux' Pacman), the following explanation mentions {ext} as a variable for the file extension. If this targets to use cases of Pacman in other distributions which possibly use a different extension, then the man page should explain this more detailed. Best Regards, Mario

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] libalpm: fix documentation for alpm_pkg_mtree_next
by morganamilo 03 Jul '19

03 Jul '19
