[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Use pipe to create compressed package instead of an intermediate tar file
by Juergen Hoetzel 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

A pipe between tar and compression command is used. This improves performance by running tar and the compression command simultaneously.

[pacman-dev] system to obviate need for DESTDIR hacks and improve PKGBUILD security
by James Pike 22 Aug '10

22 Aug '10

Hi, I've just release a system call interceptor system to freshmeat that uses LD_PRELOAD style wrappers to intercept and modify system calls. No root priveleges or chroot needed. I'm just finishing work now on a plugin for it that redirects system call writes and other file modifying events to a different directory offset: for example now when you do: make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install You could do pito redirect -d"$pkgdir" make install There are some pretty large hacks and patches necessary in some PKGBUILDs to get packages to respect DESTDIR which would be no longer necessary if they utilised pito. pito redirect also fakes the root user and captures operations like "chmod" and "chown" so: pito redirect -upacman -d"$pkgdir" make install When run as root.. will run the "make install" as the user pacman, and then after the operation is finished will use its root privileges to chown files securely within $pkgdir as necessary. I believe arch currently runs install operations as root so the above method would increase security as it would remove the ability for packages to write to the file system in any way other than to $pkgdir (any writes that could theoretically escape the sandbox would only be as a user with low privileges anyway). There are also flags to allow writes to certain directories and remove default some basic needed allowed writes such as to /dev etc. I hope this project will be of use! The website for pito is http://chilon.net/pito. -- +44 (0) 7974 159 643 | james(a)chilon.net | http://chilon.net

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/2] redirect scriptlet stderr synchronously through alpm
by Jonathan Conder 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

Fixes FS#18770, and hopefully an occasional deadlock in my frontend as well. For simplicity it redirects all scriptlet output through SCRIPTLET_INFO, and all callbacks in the child process have been replaced for thread-safety. Also adds a shell to the fake root set up for pactests, which was not needed previously due to a bug (debian #582847) in fakechroot.

[pacman-dev] Fwd: [makepkg patch - generate .SRCINFO file when running "--source"]
by vlad 10 Aug '10

10 Aug '10

Hello, Here is a mail I sent to the arch-general list containing a patch for makepkg which generates a .SRCINFO file when running "makepkg --source". Below I'll make some more comments, present some more ideas on this topic. ----- Forwarded message from vlad <vla(a)uni-bonn.de> ----- Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2010 15:25:55 +0200 From: vlad <vla(a)uni-bonn.de> Subject: makepkg patch - generate .SRCINFO file when running "--source" To: arch-general <arch-general(a)archlinux.org> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.20 (2009-06-14) Hello list, Here is a patch against makepkg from git which introduces a new function "write_srcinfo()". This generates a file .SRCINFO - like the .PKGINFO one - when "makepkg --source" is run and then it is added to the src.tar.gz archive. I think having such a file is an important step for getting split packages to the AUR. It is also useful for third party applications. Since this file is generated during making the source archive, there is no need for parsing/sourcing the PKGBUILD everytime meta infos are needed afterwards. This is also a way of standardizing the source archive. .SRCINFO looks like (generated for gcc from core): " # Generated by makepkg 3.4.0 # Tue Jul 27 12:56:38 UTC 2010 global pkgbase = gcc global pkgname = gcc global pkgname = gcc-libs global pkgname = gcc-fortran global pkgname = gcc-objc global pkgname = gcc-ada global pkgver = 4.5.0-6 global pkgdesc = The GNU Compiler Collection global url = http://gcc.gnu.org global packager = Vlad George <donvla(a)users.sourceforge.net> global builddate = 1280235398 global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.5-20100610/gcc-core-4.5-20100610.tar.… global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.5-20100610/gcc-g++-4.5-20100610.tar.b… global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.5-20100610/gcc-fortran-4.5-20100610.t… global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.5-20100610/gcc-objc-4.5-20100610.tar.… global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.5-20100610/gcc-ada-4.5-20100610.tar.b… global source = ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/libstdc++/doxygen/libstdc++-man.20100312.tar.bz2 global source = gcc_pure64.patch global source = gcc-hash-style-both.patch global source = r160561.patch global license = GPL global license = LGPL global license = custom global arch = i686 global arch = x86_64 global makedepends = binutils>=2.20.1 global makedepends = libmpc>=0.8.2-2 global makedepends = cloog-ppl>=0.15.8 global makedepends = libelf global makedepends = gcc-ada gcc depends = binutils>=2.20.1 gcc depends = libmpc>=0.8.1-2 gcc depends = cloog-ppl>=0.15.8 gcc depends = libelf gcc groups = base-devel gcc install = gcc.install gcc-libs pkgdesc = Runtime libraries shipped by GCC for C and C++ languages gcc-libs groups = base gcc-libs depends = glibc>=2.11.1-2 gcc-libs install = gcc-libs.install gcc-fortran pkgdesc = Fortran front-end for GCC gcc-fortran depends = gcc=4.5.0-6 gcc-fortran install = gcc-fortran.install gcc-objc pkgdesc = Objective-C front-end for GCC gcc-objc depends = gcc=4.5.0-6 gcc-ada pkgdesc = Ada front-end for GCC (GNAT) gcc-ada depends = gcc=4.5.0-6 gcc-ada install = gcc-ada.install " As you see this file consists of different parts separated by a leading tag. "global" denotes the global PKGBUILD vars and the name of the split package denotes the local package variables. However, this is just a first formatting approach. This can be changed according to further needs. I think this is a clear and easily readable/parseable output. Note that "packager" defaults to the person who actually build the source archive. Perhaps this has to be changed to AUR user name, not to the makepkg.conf PACKAGER entry. ----- End forwarded message ----- The main idea behind this is to unify and standardize how PKGBUILDs are handled (mainly AUR). For now information about a package has to be parsed from the PKGBUILD which creates a big overhead and has many security holes. There are some more problems with this. As a user said, there is a problem with if clauses for different arches. Imo there is no sane way to handle this. So we should try a different approach. A possible one is to restrict the way architecture specific variables are written to PKGBUILDs; perhaps only smth like: "[[ $CARCH == "i686" ]] && sources= ... " Though this is quite restrictive, and I see a discussion coming up why this and not the other way. A more elegant way - which I personally prefer - is to introduce a new function "arch_$CARCH" to PKGBUILDs. Actually these are two functions, arch_i686 and arch_x86_64, one for each architecture. These functions appear in the first (global) part of the PKGBUILD before the build/package functions and contain arch specific variables. This may look like (eg for new wine PKGBUILD): " arch=(i686 x86_64) license=(LGPL) arch_i686() { depends=(fontconfig mesa libxcursor libxrandr libxdamage libxxf86dga alsa-lib) makedepends=(autoconf ncurses bison perl fontforge flex prelink 'gcc>=4.5.0-2' cross32-gcc libgphoto2 giflib libxpm libpng libxinerama libxcomposite \ libxmu libxxf86vm libxml2 libxslt libldap lcms mpg123 openal esound jack cups sane samba) optdepends=(libgphoto2 giflib libpng libldap lcms libxml2 mpg123 openal esound jack cups sane samba) } arch_x86_64() { depends=(...) } source=("stuff") md5sums=("numbers") build() { .... } " You get the point. Note that only vars are allowed in these functions; other entries are ignored. There should also be a list/array of allowed vars (like "splitpkg_overrides"). There are: depends, makedepends, optdepends, source, checksums. Note that this does not affect the build/package functions in any way. The main advantages are: * This is a unified way to handle arch specific vars in PKGBUILDs. There are no dirty hacks, no barely readable if clauses, etc. * This is easy to parse - if needed - and easily integrable into makepkg. After sourcing the buildfile, you can first check if there is such a function and than simply run it (eg: "declare -F arch_$CARCH && arch_$CARCH"). In combination with .SRCINFO there is no need to parse the PKGBUILD at all afterwards. * And for the .SRCINFO file: with these functions you can expand (only an example - as I said above, this formatting is just one possibility) the separation tags to "global_i686" and "global_x86_64" which point to the arch specific vars. This completes the output/writing of this file. And now to the AUR. Every "taurball" which is uploaded to the AUR has to be built with "makepkg --source". It contains then a .SRCINFO file which makes the information about this package easy readable. So there is a sane and consistent way to provide and get information for wanted purposes (AUR web interface, third party apps, etc). Thank you for reading, Vlad --

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] makepkg: add option to skip archive compression
by Christian Himpel 09 Aug '10

09 Aug '10

hi pacman developers, i currently have to `makepkg' a huge package (go-hg) again and again. since compression takes very long (and pacman can handle uncompressed archives very well), i implemented an option to makepkg that skips the compression of the (tar)archive. this speeds-up my workflow enormously. btw, this option might be useful in packages like yaourt as well.. if you find this patch useful, feel free to include it :) thanks for developing this great package manager! cheers, chressie
