[pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/1] dload: use 'partial file' instead of 'filesize exceeded' message
by Christian Hesse 10 Oct '14

10 Oct '14

From: Christian Hesse <mail(a)eworm.de> If the server has a package file that is too big (does not match the recorded file size in repository db file) pacman fails with a 'filesize exceeded' message. This is misleading as it looks like pacman is suffering a local problem, for example ulimit on filesize or the like. This changes the message to 'partial file', which describes the problem a lot better IMHO. --- lib/libalpm/dload.c | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/libalpm/dload.c b/lib/libalpm/dload.c index 01fe57e..c819d73 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/dload.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/dload.c @@ -491,14 +491,14 @@ static int curl_download_internal(struct dload_payload *payload, case CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK: /* handle the interrupt accordingly */ if(dload_interrupted == ABORT_OVER_MAXFILESIZE) { - payload->curlerr = CURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED; + payload->curlerr = CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE; payload->unlink_on_fail = 1; handle->pm_errno = ALPM_ERR_LIBCURL; - /* use the 'size exceeded' message from libcurl */ + /* use the 'partial file' message from libcurl */ _alpm_log(handle, ALPM_LOG_ERROR, _("failed retrieving file '%s' from %s : %s\n"), payload->remote_name, hostname, - curl_easy_strerror(CURLE_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED)); + curl_easy_strerror(CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE)); } goto cleanup; default: -- 2.1.2

[pacman-dev] Help with naming new option for paccache
by Maxim Andersson 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Hi, Been looking into adding a new option for paccache that would remove all uninstalled packages (and at the same time keep the default number of the others). So, paccache -r --removeuninstalled would be the same as running paccache -r && paccache -ruk0 But before sending in my patch/option-proposal, I would like to hear what you think a good option name would be? I think "removeuninstalled" is pretty descriptive, but it's a bit long.. and I wasn't able come up with any good shorter names. Regards, Maxim

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] pacman-db-upgrade: do not mangle file lists
by Andrew Gregory 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

grep'ing out blank lines and sorting output thoroughly breaks any file lists with %BACKUP% entries which must be separated from the file list by a blank line. Signed-off-by: Andrew Gregory <andrew.gregory.8(a)gmail.com> --- Anybody who has replaced an owned directory with a symlink and run pacman-db-upgrade has mangled the file list for all packages with backup files. To check for broken file lists run: `grep -xA1 %BACKUP% /var/lib/pacman/local/*/files | grep -B1 %FILES%` Any file lists with output are broken. Broken file lists can be repaired by reinstalling the affected packages with --dbonly. After repairing, users should remove /var/lib/pacman/local/ALPM_DB_VERSION and run the fixed version of pacman-db-upgrade. scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in b/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in index d2d317b..d7e34bd 100644 --- a/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in +++ b/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in @@ -211,9 +211,9 @@ if [[ -z "$db_version" ]]; then { if ($0 == olddir) { # replace symlink with its target, including parents - printf("%s", parents) - printf("%s\n", newdir) - } else if ($0 == file) { + if (parents) printf("%s", parents) + if (newdir) printf("%s\n", newdir) + } else if (file && $0 == file) { # newdir already existed as a file, skip it } else if (index($0, olddir) == 1) { # update paths that were under olddir @@ -222,7 +222,7 @@ if [[ -z "$db_version" ]]; then # print everything else as-is print } - }' "$f" | grep . | LC_ALL=C sort -u > "$f.tmp" + }' "$f" > "$f.tmp" mv "$f.tmp" "$f" done done -- 2.1.1

It was pointed out to me on IRC that validpgpkeys expects full fingerprints, and won't accept shorter forms. This makes the documentation insufficient, and the variable name itself misleading. This patch bolsters the documentation to explain more about what the contents should be, and implements suffix matching to allow matching on shorters fingerprint suffices. Now, when makepkg tells you that a key ID isn't valid, it's sufficient to manually check the key ID against the known good ID, and add it as is to validpgpkeys.
