[pacman-dev] [PATCH 0/5] Miscellaneous pacman-conf tweaks
by iff＠escondida.tk 09 Feb '18

09 Feb '18

From: Ivy Foster <iff(a)escondida.tk> I started fiddling around with pacman-conf today, because I wanted to add short options to it, and then just sort of...kept on for a bit. Oh, I could be wrong, but I think that 'pacman-conf --repo <foo>' pretty much covers [FS#25568][1].

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] makepkg --packagelist: just list the built package files we will build
by Eli Schwartz 08 Feb '18

08 Feb '18

Currently this seems to be only theoretically useful. The most likely reason for wanting a packagelist is in order to script makepkg and derive the filenames for the packages we want to install or repo-add, but in the current implementation this requires a lot of additional post-processing which must be duplicated in every utility to wrap makepkg. - It is of minimal use to know what packages might get created on some other device utilizing a different CPU/OS architecture, so don't list them. - It is non-trivial to reimplement makepkg's logic for sourcing any of several makepkg.conf configuration files, then applying environment overrides in order to get the PKGDEST and PKGEXT, so include them directly in the returned filenames.

[pacman-dev] [RFC] --sysroot and nsswitch
by Andrew Gregory 27 Jan '18

27 Jan '18

Under glibc, various networking and user/group lookup functions cause /etc/nsswitch.conf to be read. Once it is read, the necessary libs are dynamically loaded. This causes a couple problems for our current chroot-based implementation of --sysroot. First, because we chroot almost immediately, pacman is likely to use the sysroot's nsswitch.conf and related files which may or may not be configured appropriately if they even exist. Second, glibc will try to load the libraries inside the sysroot rather than the host's copies, which may not match pacman's copy of glibc, not exist, or be broken. I've never dealt with NSS before, so maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't really look like there's a right way for pacman to deal with a sysroot at all. I think that ideally we would use the host's networking configuration and the sysroot's user/group database configuration, but there doesn't appear to be a way to do that within a single process. Does anybody have any ideas for improving this situation before we release --sysroot into the wild? apg

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 0/4] add pacman-conf utility
by Andrew Gregory 18 Jan '18

18 Jan '18

Parsing pacman.conf is so hard that even our own scripts don't do it correctly. pacman-conf is a dedicated utility scripts can use to correctly parse values from pacman.conf. This is a conversion of an earlier version of pacconf from pacutils that has been relicensed and renamed to avoid a file conflict. I make no promises that I've correctly adjusted the automake configuration for this type of build, but it works for me.
