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>

2012-01-02Prevent 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>

This is not something that should be used on a frequent basis, and giving it a short option encourages use without making the drawbacks obvious. For the 1% of situations that require it, the 5 extra keystrokes are a fair price to pay. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2011-10-05pacman-key: treat foo-trusted as an ownertrust export fileDan McGee1-2/+4
This allows it to serve double-duty. In order to allow users to base verification decisions off of both a valid signature and a trusted signature, we need to assign some level of owner trust to the keys we designate as trusted on import. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-10-05pacman-key: refine and clarify import/import-trustdb behaviorDan McGee1-4/+5
* --import now only imports keys from pubkey.gpg and does not import owner trust; if you want to have both simply run the operations in sequence. * --import-trustdb has been simplified; it will overwrite existing values in the trust database as before, but there is no need to export it first as those values are safe if left untouched. * Fix the manpage referring to a non-existent option.

2011-09-22pacman-key: add an additional plain text 'foo-trusted' fileDan McGee1-10/+19
This is similar to the 'foo-revoked' file we had. This will be used to inform the user what keys in the shipped keyring need to be explicitly trusted by the user. A distro such as Arch will likely have 3-4 master keys listed in this trusted file, but an additional 25 developer keys present in the keyring that the user shouldn't have to directly sign. We use this list to prompt the user to sign the keys locally. If the key is already signed locally gpg will print a bit of junk but will continue without pestering the user. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-09-22pacman-key: remove holdkeys functionalityDan McGee1-3/+1
We're putting the cart ahead of the horse a bit here. Given that our keyring is not one where everything is implicitly trusted (ala gpgv), keeping or deleting a key has no bearing on its trusted status, only whether we can actually verify things signed by said key. If we need to address this down the road, we can find a solution that works for the problem at hand rather than trying to solve it now before signing is even widespread.

2011-09-02pacman-key: split keyserver to a separate optionDan McGee1-2/+8

2011-08-29pacman-key: rework and document holding keys in keyringAllan McRae1-2/+6
The HoldKey option was undocumented and was not suited for pacman.conf. Instead use the file "/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/heldkeys" to contain a list of keys not to be removed from the pacman keyring with the --populate option. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2011-08-29pacman-key: rework importing distro/repo provided keyringsAllan McRae1-2/+6
The current --reload option, apart from being non-clear in its naming, is very limited in that only one keyring can be provided. A distribution may want to provide multiple keyrings for various subsets of its organisation or custom repo providers may also want to provide a keyring. This patch adds a --populate option that reads keyrings from (by default) /usr/share/pacman/keyrings. A keyring is named foo.gpg, with optional foo-revoked file providing a list of revoked key ids. These files are required to be signed (detached) by a key trusted by pacman-key, in practice probably by the key that signed the package providing these files. The --populate flag either updates the pacman keyring using all keyrings in the directory or individual keyrings can be specified. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2011-08-23vercmp: ensure 2.0a and 2.0.a do not compare equalDan McGee2-2/+2
We had this interesting set of facts conundrum, according to vercmp return values: 2.0a < 2.0 2.0 < 2.0.a 2.0a == 2.0.a This introduces a code change that ensures '2.0a < 2.0.a' as would be expected by the first two comparisons. Unfortunately this stays us a bit further from upstream RPM code, but those are the breaks (in RPM, the versions involving 'a' do in fact compare the same, but they are both greater than the bare '2.0').

Trivial to implement as the same backend machinery is used anyway. Document it and add it to the accepted options. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-08-11Add -S --recursive operationDan McGee1-0/+7
This closely matches what we had before for -R --recursive. Basically, when specifying a target (e.g., pacman), we can now recursively pull all dependencies, regardless of version specifiers and whether they are already satisfied in the local database. This could be used to update pacman on a system with an old glibc, for example, as both pacman and glibc would get pulled into the transaction. This is most useful with --needed to prevent needless reinstalls as described in the man page changes. The end goal of this change is to wire it into SyncFirst and have it be the default mode of operation there, but that belongs in a separate changeset. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
