2012-04-24Split check steps in Makefile into multiple targetsDan McGee1-0/+2
This allows a `make -j4 check` invocation to actually run in parallel, even though 95% of our test suite time is currently dominated by pactest. It also allows running something like `make test-vercmp`. Also, add some targets to the .PHONY list that belong in it. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2012-04-24pacman-key: allow verification of multiple sig filesDave Reisner1-1/+1
Loop through arguments passed to verify_sig and treat each as a signature to be verified against a source file. Output each file as its checked to avoid ambiguity. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-24pacman-key: adopt parseopts for option parsingDave Reisner1-34/+40
This requires an ugly amount of reworking of how pacman-key handles options. The change simply to avoid passing keys, files, and directories as arguments to options, but to leave them as arguments to the overall program. This is reasonable since pacman-key limits the user to essentially one operation per invocation (like pacman). Since we now pass around the positional parameters to the various operations, we can add some better sanity checking. Each operation is responsible for testing input and making sure it can operate properly, otherwise it throws an error and exits. The doc is updated to reflect this, and uses similar verbiage as pacman, describing the non-option arguments now passed to pacman-key as targets. Similar to the doc, --help is reorganized to separate operations and options and remove argument tokens from operations. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-24makepkg: allow specifying --pkg multiple timesDave Reisner1-1/+1

2012-04-20pkgdelta: implement requirments for delta generationFlorian Pritz1-1/+11
Big deltas or deltas for very small packages are not needed so we should check that and not generate any. Signed-off-by: Florian Pritz <bluewind@xinu.at> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2012-04-12Remove SyncFirst optionDan McGee1-9/+0
This has outlived its usefulness and causes more problems than it solves. It has historically only ever been used to install pacman first. That should not be needed given we provide the vercmp utility (which has no library dependencies) and so calling pacman in install scripts is a sign of poor packaging.

Adds the ability to override the commands used to compressing compiled and source packages.

2012-03-05pacman-key: Remove useless signature verification in --populate commandPierre Schmitz1-5/+0

2012-02-15Revert "Add -S --recursive operation"Dan McGee1-7/+0
This reverts commit f3fa77bcf1d792971c314f8c0de255866e89f3f3 along with making other necessary changes to fully back this (mis)feature out until we can do it correctly. The quick summary here is this was not implemented correctly; provides are not fully taken into account in this logic, and making that happen exposes a lot of other flaws in this code that are covered up later on in the dependency resolving process by several other pieces of convoluted and conditional logic. Tests have been adjusted accordingly. Some test EXISTS conditions have been removed as we already know the package is installed locally, and we also are checking the VERSION condition anyway. With these two related revert commits, we do have some changes in test pass/fail results: * upgrade078.py: does not pass, this is due to --recursive getting removed for -U/-S operations after this commit. * sync302.py: the version checks have been disabled, so this test continues to pass but has been scaled back in scope. * sync303.py: now passes, was failing before. * sync304.py: still failing, was failing before. * sync305.py: now passes, was failing before. * sync306.py: still passes, was passing before.

2012-01-18Allow UseDelta option to specify a delta ratioDan McGee1-3/+7
Rework the frontend and backend to allow passing a ratio value in for UseDelta rather than having a hardcoded #define-d 0.7 value always used. This is useful for those with fast connections, who would likely benefit from tuning this ratio to lower values; it is also useful for general testing purposes. The libalpm API changes for this, but we do support the old config file format with a no-value 'UseDelta' option; in this case we simply use the old default of 0.7. We clamp the ratio values to a sane range between 0.0 and 2.0, allowing ratios above 1.0 for testing purposes. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2012-01-18Don't remove unknown files in cache cleaning codeDan McGee1-1/+1
This removes the hack I added to skip '*.sig' files earlier since there are other files that also fall into the same bucket- source packages from `makepkg --source`, delta files, etc. Rather than prompting for each and every one, simply skip them. Doing '-Scc' rather than '-Sc' will delete these files if that is really what you want to do. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2012-01-02Prevent rebuild of man pages when using release tarballsAllan McRae1-3/+3
Commit 43cad9c8 made the building of all docs depend on the Makefile. However, the Makefile is generated after running ./configure so is always newer than any pregenerated docs. This means that people building from released pacman tarballs are forced to rebuild the docs (and thus have asciidoc installed). That defeats the purpose of prebuilding the documentation. Have the documentatin depends on Makefile.am instead as this is probably what was intended. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-12-28makepkg: Use SKIP in checksum to skip integrity checkAllan McRae1-3/+4
Using the value of "SKIP" in the checksum array will cause that integrity check to be skipped. This makes building packages that rely on user configurable sources less painful.

2011-12-08Use automake verbose helpers in custom make rulesDan McGee1-7/+9
This converts our script generation to use the built-in AM_V_GEN macro, which honors the V= setting passed to make and allows one to see the full command if they truly desire. The AM_V_at macro is also used in place of an explicit @ so verbose-mode compiles show all commands being run. We can also use these two macros in doc generation to quiet it down to the level we expect. Other minor changes: * a pointless test call is removed in test/pacman/tests/ * sed is used instead of dos2unix as we depend on it anyway * consecutive chmod calls are reduced to a single call (e.g., '+x,a-x') Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
