[pacman-dev] Is there a release schedule for pacman-4?
by kachelaqa 17 Sep '11

17 Sep '11

i had a look at the pacman4-rc1 that was put out for testing last month, but judging from the activity on this list there still seems to be a quite lot of new features being added. my searches for a release schedule have drawn a blank, so am i right to assume pacman-4 is still quite a long way away from it's first release? by "long way away" i mean more than, say, two months?

[pacman-dev] Repositories management in enterprise
by Thomas Baquet 12 Sep '11

12 Sep '11

Hi there, While I was thinking how to deploy an ArchLinux like distribution in enterprise, I pointed that the biggest problem is the management of the updates. I though it could be interesting if there is way system like: Master ArchLinux repos → Enterprise repositories → Users, employees When is there an update to the master repos, the update will be done in a testing repos in the enterprise repositories; Then, administrators can verify if there is no problem for compatibility with the deployed machines, and if is okay, update the main repository of the enterprise. So my question is: is there a mechanism to do it automatically? -- Thomas Baquet Jabber ID: me lordblackfox net Website: http://lordblackfox.net/

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 00/15] Full optdep support with all the bells and whistles

Hi there! This should implement everything that's listed on this page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Allan/Pacman_OptDepends I know that this is probably 4.1 material and will most likely need quite a bit of polish, but I'd like to gather some comments now before the bit-rot creeps in.

[pacman-dev] pacman -Qs first-run performance
by Philipp 11 Sep '11

11 Sep '11

Hi there, pacman works very well for me, with one exception: searching for installed packages. For me a -Ss takes about 5 seconds, a -Qs 25 seconds. I also noticed that this seems to be true for the first search run only, the following ones are less than a second, no matter whether it's a repo or local search. But if you want to just quickly find out a thing, 25 seconds or so is a long time. Anyway, I had a very brief look at the code and am far from understanding it, but I think libalpm/db.c handles the search, the package names, descriptions, etc. are stored in a linked list of structs, the whole thing is cached in memory only and regex wizardry is used for the search. If that's true, the bottleneck I experience is the caching. 5 seconds for -Ss is acceptable for me, but I wonder whether there's a reasonably easy way to improve the 25 seconds of -Qs. My knowledge of pacman internals is non-existant and my C skills are minimal, so I don't think I can be a lot of help with this one, but maybe there's something else I can be of help with instead. Best regards, Philipp
