[pacman-dev] [PATCH] use sudo everywhere for makepkg -iS
by VMiklos 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

hi http://frugalware.org/~vmiklos/patches/libpacman-proposed/makepkg_install.d… if a package already built, and makepkg was called with -iS, then we should use sudo to install the package. if there were no -S and we're not root, then we should inform the user about we can't auto-install the packages - the same way as we do with the dependency auto-install. as the package install code was duplicated, i've moved it to a separate function udv / greetings, VMiklos -- Developer of Frugalware Linux, to make things frugal - http://frugalware.org

[pacman-dev] test/sync999 - pacman segfault
by Aurelien Foret 23 Feb '06

23 Feb '06

Hi, Running pactest today showed that sync999 test case no longer works. Eventually, pactest return on investment does not seem null anymore :) It seems the flaw appeared with lib/libalpm/conflict.c:1.15. The same test with conflict.c:1.14 is ok. Here's the log from pactest: flow2: PM_OPT_DBPATH set to 'var/lib/pacman' flow2: PM_OPT_CACHEDIR set to 'var/cache/pacman/pkg' debug: opening database 'local' debug: opening database 'sync' :: Starting local database upgrade... flow1: checking for package replacements debug: loading package cache (infolevel=0x3) for repository 'sync' flow1: checking for package upgrades debug: loading package cache (infolevel=0x3) for repository 'local' debug: CACHE: fetching 'sync/pkg1' flow2: pkg1-1.0-1 elected for upgrade (1.0-1 => 1.0-2) debug: CACHE: fetching 'sync/pkg2' flow2: pkg2-1.0-1 elected for upgrade (1.0-1 => 1.0-2) resolving dependencies... flow1: resolving targets dependencies done. looking for inter-conflicts... flow1: looking for unresolvable dependencies debug: CACHE: fetching 'local/pkg1' debug: CACHE: fetching 'local/pkg2' flow1: looking for conflicts debug: targs vs db: found pkg2 as a conflict for pkg1 debug: targs vs targs: found pkg2 as a conflict for pkg1 debug: db vs targs: found pkg1 as a conflict for pkg2 flow2: package 'pkg1' is conflicting with 'pkg2' debug: CACHE: fetching 'local/pkg2' debug: package 'pkg1' provides its own conflict debug: resolving package 'pkg1' conflict flow2: electing 'pkg2' for removal flow2: removing 'pkg2' from target list flow2: package 'pkg2' is conflicting with 'pkg1' debug: CACHE: fetching 'local/pkg1' When handling conflict pkg1, pkg2 is removed from targets. Then, the library tries to handle pkg2 conflict... but find_pkginsync() returns NULL... I've committed a fix (sync.c:1.66) to skip conflict resolution in such a case. Thoughts? The test suite is ok with it ;) -- Aurelien

[pacman-dev] makepkg: removing empty directories?
by VMiklos 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

from makepkg: 1.12 (aurelien 16-Feb-06): # remove empty directories 1.12 (aurelien 16-Feb-06): if [ "`check_option NOEMPTYDIRS`" ]; then 1.12 (aurelien 16-Feb-06): msg "Removing empty directories..." 1.12 (aurelien 16-Feb-06): find pkg -mindepth 1 -type d -empty -exec rmdir {} \; 1.12 (aurelien 16-Feb-06): fi cmiiw, but openssh creates an empty /var/empty directory and it _does_ need it. any idea how to solve this problem? for now, i haven't merged this hunk to our tree udv / greetings, VMiklos -- Developer of Frugalware Linux, to make things frugal - http://frugalware.org

[pacman-dev] Little question regarding alpm
by Joao Estevao 20 Feb '06

20 Feb '06

I'm currently trying to write a front end in python and a python wrapper to alpm and I'm running into some problems. I can't seem to be able to install a package twice. All goes well the first time, but then I get this: DEBUG: closing database 'extra' DEBUG: freeing package cache for repository 'extra' Then I tought I might have to re-open the 'extra' db, so I close it and then I re-open it and get this: FLOW2: target 'alsaplayer' not found -- looking for provisions or sometimes I get : RuntimeError: transaction not initialized or sometimes it works. I guess my question is this. Why does alpm close the db and free the pkg cache when one installs some package(s)? Couldn't it refresh the db and the pkg cache? Thanks in advance and please correct me if I'm wrong. Joao -- A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it. -- Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)
