pkgdb(1):
- Set the default answer to no when a score is under 80%.
pkgdb(1), portupgrade(1):
- Add a BUGS entry to each of the two man pages to note that a user
must run pkgdb -fu to rebuild a corrupt pkgdb.
pkgdb(3):
- Add a silly workaround against a possible bug of the dbm module to
keep a pkgdb from getting insane and rebuilt.
- [exp.] Add a knob environment variable PKG_DBDRIVER to specify an
alternative binary database format for pkgdb. The available options
are:
"bdb_btree":
DB 3.x/4.x B+tree; requires databases/ruby-bdb.
"bdb_hash" or just "bdb":
DB 3.x/4.x hash; requires databases/ruby-bdb.
"bdb1_btree" or just "btree":
DB 1.85 B+tree; requires databases/ruby-bdb1.
"bdb1_hash", or just "bdb1" or "hash":
DB 1.85 hash; requires databases/ruby-bdb1. This should be
equivalent to the default except some tuning parameters, but
it is quite possible that ruby-bdb1 is stabler than the
standard dbm module included in ruby.
default:
DB 1.85 hash; uses ruby's standard dbm module.
In principle, a B+tree database is faster to store data, a little
bit slower to extract data, and takes more space than a hash
database.
This is still an experimental/undocumented feature only for those
interested, although I don't believe it brings any unstability.
Note that you can always run pkgdb -fu to rebuild a database.
portcvsweb(1):
- Invoke browsers with system() instead of exec() so that it will
properly try every browser in turn - exec('/bin/sh', '-c', '..') may
cause an error within /bin/sh but it never returns.
Reported by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@FreeBSD.org>
portsclean(1):
- Make portsclean -D remove empty directories (recursively) as well.
* Update the MSC theme.
* Stop the webmin service when the port is deinstalled, and restart it
properly when it is update (if BATCH is set then nothing happens, so
sysinstall will be happy at install time). Also, fix a $BATCH -> ${BATCH}
error in Makefile.
pkg_deinstall(1), portupgrade(1):
- Properly print the legend.
pkg_glob(1), portsdb(1):
- Do not print an empty line when the result list is empty.
pkgdb(1):
- Greatly improve the origin fixing procedure. Do the origin
duplicateness check before checking dependencies and avoid redoing
the origin check.
- Show the user CVS history on the spot via the CVSweb.
portcvsweb(1):
- Allow specifying a no longer existent port file/directory.
"portcvsweb net/ruby-uri" now works.
- Change the default BROWSER value from 'lynx' to
'w3m:lynx:links:mozilla:netscape'.
portupgrade(1):
- Fix a bug where portupgrade tried to use a package with a different
origin when the package name is identical to that of what it wants
except for the version part.
pkgdb(3):
- Abolish the [You have no permission to update the pkgdb -- using a
slow method] message. Instead, run 'pkgdb -u' via sudo(8) when
under portupgrade -s, or stop the process immediately with a
message that the user must run the command as root.
pkgtools.conf(5):
- Allow specifying unofficial ports' origin globs in HOLD_PKGS as
well as package globs.
overall/miscellaneous:
- Change --no-config to --noconfig in order to get the -q option
really working. Since --no-config was regarded a negative form of
--config, it didn't work as expected.
- Fix some bugs in the zsh compdefs and add missing descriptions for
some options.

pkgdb(1):
- Make pkgdb(1) -F provide a user an option to unregister stale
packages, in addition to deinstalling them.
- Reword: 'remove a package record' -> 'unregister a package', etc. .
pkg_deinstall(1):
- Add a new option:
-c, --collate

overwritten by other packages, and do not deinstall if any.
pkg_which(1):
- Make pkg_which(1) capable of showing multiple file owner packages.
- Add a new option:
-c/--collate PKGNAME
Show files installed by the given packge that have been
overwritten by other packages.
- Strip -c/-o's argument of PKG_DBDIR and a trailing slash.
- Be less verbose unless -v is given.
pkgdb(3):
- Record and handle files that are installed by multiple packages.
- Bump the DB version.
- Squeeze series of slashes seen in the output of 'pkg_info -L'.
- Show the reason for rebuilding a package database.
pkgdb(1):
- When pkgdb(1) finds a package with a non-existent or missing origin
which is not required by any other package, ask the user if the
package should be deinstalled. This will help users delete
obsoleted packages.
pkg_fetch(1):

Seriously, this removes a warning when the 'list' command was invoked

This is especially useful if penv is used as a make(1) environment

portupgrade:
- Greatly improve the procedure of binary upgrading (-P/-PP):
When a fetched package is not of the latest version:
1) If -PP is given and the package is at least newer than the
current installation, put up with it and do an upgrade.
2) If -PP is given and the package is now newer than the current
installation, give up.
3) Else, fall back to the port.
This way you can now do binary upgrades just as you'd expect.
- Improve the new installation procedure as well.
- Allow using ports glob patterns in the configutation variables
MAKE_ARGS and HOLD_PORTS.
- If a port/package matches multiple entries of MAKE_ARGS, join all
the arguments using the space as separator.
pkg_fetch:

up-to-date.
Finally remove -E/--regex. Use the ':RE' glob pattern instead.
* IPv4 and IPv6 network files can be selected with -i4 and -i6.
(IPv6 network file selection is only possible when lsof supports
IPv6 for the dialect.)
* Added new output field for raw device number in hex. The field is
identified with 'r'. This field is NOT selected when -F or -F0 is
specified so that its appearance won't disturb existing scripts that
process field output.
portupgrade:
Fix a couple of bugs where `portupgrade -h | more' doesn't show the
usage nicely.
Reported by: Gregory Neil Shapiro <gshapiro@gshapiro.net>
portsclean:
Make good use of portsdb and pkgdb, use lazy (but virtually
sufficient) checks and get distclean much faster. (both -D and -DD)
portsdb:
Do not fail even if some categories are missing in the ports tree.
Reported and tested by: Jos Backus <josb@cncdsl.com>
And some other internal bugfixes that do not affect the user tools.
release again. (Hopefully)
portupgrade:
Delete an unneeded exception snatcher. This fixes a bug where ports
marked as IGNORE are not properly skipped.
pkgdb:
Rebuild pkgdb if it looks like broken, instead of resulting in
failure.
Unbreak regexp match. ;)
Fix a typo of a variable name in an error message.
[Reported by: Stijn Hoop <stijn@win.tue.nl>]
portsdb:
Allow a port dir to be a symlink to a directory.
Add support for the case where some catetories are missing in a
ports tree.
[Submitted by: Jos Backus <josb@cncdsl.com>]
pkgdb:
Fix a type error and unbreak date-based pkg glob.
[Reported by: Ollivier Robert <roberto@keltia.freenix.fr>]
portupgrade:
Silence pkg_info when it does not find a package.
[Submitted by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it>]
pkgdb:
Make pkgdb fixer's dependency guesser aware of language specific
categories. Now it suggests ja-qt-2.3.1 instead of qt-1.45_1 for
a missing qt-2.3.1.
Do not fail over a package entry that has no +COMMENT file, like an
XFree86 package entry faked by the FreeBSD installer.
[Reported by: Ollivier Robert <roberto@eurocontrol.fr>]
portsdb:
Do not allow specifying a ports glob using a relative path to the
current directory. This prevents the tools from confusing when the
current directory is under PORTS_DIR.
Give a better progress display.
many bugfixes. Check out http://www.exploits.org/nut/release/new-0.45.1.txt
for more details. Highlights include experimental USB support, and the
various programs dropping more privileges after startup.
* Clean up the Makefile a little by grouping more of the CGI-dependent
stuff together. Improve the pkg-plist in this regard as well. Make a
directory and install a conf file sample that the software Makefile's
are missing for some reason.
* Make the cgi directory depend on one of the previously
discussed plans to use PREFIX/www/cgi-bin if it exists already, and
PREFIX/share/apache if not.
create a new database for the very first time. (Run "pkgdb -fu" if you have
20011006 installed)
Fix MAN1 entries.
Remove old database pkgdb.byfile.db on installation.
(new database is named pkgdb.db)
Beware, there can probably be some bugs left in the new pkgdb code.
In such a case please run "pkgdb -fu" to fix the situation.
overall:
Utilize pkgdb better and optimize.
portupgrade:
Do not scan packages all at once when -P is given, but find one per
request. [Requested by: Hideaki OKADA <hokada@isl.melco.co.jp>]
Create a backup package record in tmpdir instead of pkgdbdir, in
order not to update pkgdbdir's mtime.
Rephrase/add messages.
portinstall:
Commit major changes and improvements over portinstall.
Now it warns and asks the user for confirmation if a port is being
installed when a package of the same origin is already installed.
Upgrade all the required packages before installing a new port.
[Requested by: Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume@mahoroba.org>]
Do not install ports immediately but queue them up, then install
them after upgrading all the specified and required packages.
pkgdb:
Record pkgname <=> origin mapping in the pkgdb and make full use of
it instead of repeatedly calling pkg_info -o which has undesirable
overheads.
Make portupgrade, pkg_deinstall update the pkgdb after they
install/deinstall packages or modify package records.
Integrate pkgdepfix(1) within. (pkgdb -F/--fix)
Add -o/--origin, which looks up an origin of a package in pkgdb.
Detect added/deleted/reinstalled packages more strictly so pkgdb can
keep being sane and consistent.
Do not fail over a small conflict found during updating pkgdb;
portupgrade should not be aborted by such a minor problem.
pkgdepfix:
Obsolete -o and turn -o on by default. Now we can look up an origin
of a package so quickly thanks to the pkgdb.
Integrate into pkgdb(1). (pkgdb -F/--fix)
portsdb:
A date spec is not a valid ports glob; emit a warning if specified.
[Found by: Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume@mahoroba.org>]
and that on www.idaemons.org didn't match. They are identical in the
uncompressed form but I think I compressed one with -9 and another
with -6 somehow. Thereby list the MD5 checksums of both in pkg-plist
as a workaround.
The one on ftp.FreeBSD.org will be overwritten by the one on
www.idaemons.org soon.

This fixes generation of DVDs >4Gb in size.
overall:
- Implement new package glob patterns: {<|<=|>=|>}{date|pkgname_glob}.
For example, you can rebuild and reinstall all the dependent
packages of png that had been installed prior to png this way:
portupgrade -fr png -x '>=png'
- Introduce the packages database, which is currently a simple hash
that maps file paths to package names.
Inspired by: NetBSD
pkgdb(1): (new)
- A command to create/update the packages database.
pkg_which(1): (new)
- A command to check which package a file came from quickly.
portsclean(1):
- Suppress "can't cd" error messages.
Submitted by: Jos Backus <josb@cncdsl.com>
ports_glob(1): (new)
- Give portsdb(1)'s ports glob expanding feature a suitable name.
