fixes#607.
audit is now mostly rewritten for the new functionality. And
has new features like --check-permissions, --recursive and
--packages.
$ROOT/etc/apk/protected_files.d/*.list can now contain additional
protected paths, one path per line:
+etc
@etc/init.d
-tmp
+ will include the directory as protected configuration directory.
@ considers the directory protected, but will backup only symlinks.
- removes any protection
lbu should be modified to put include and exclude paths in
etc/apk/protected_files.d/lbu.list. Additionally, some packages
might provide their own listings.
E.g. ssh might want to provide ssh.list with something like:
+root/.ssh
+home/*/.ssh
It is faster to just scan the cache directory for existing packages
at startup than trying to faccessat() them on demand. It also makes
quite a few parts of the code more readable and simpler.
* solver internally calculates now using tags; not repository masks
* installeddb now contains the tag name where the package came from
-> we can now handle upgrades properly
* the pinning is still a preference, and not strictly enforced;
versioned dependencies may overrule preference
Only show a warning if we have a non-existing repository or bad
repository signature but don't abort.
This is not to break compat with behaviour in previous releases.
* upgrade needs explicit check so we don't try self-upgrade
(which would print additional messages on screen)
* add can fix problems, so check against the new world
* merge the code in few places
Improves /etc/apk/repositories format so you can say:
http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v2.3/main
@edge http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main
@testing http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing
After which you can pin dependencies to these tags using:
apk add stableapp newapp@edge bleedingapp@testing
Apk will now by default only use the untagged repositories,
but adding a tag to specific dependency:
1. will prefer that tag for the name
2. allowing pulling in dependencies from that tag (though,
it prefers untagged packages to satisfy deps if possible)
fixes#575
If two packages replace each other, the one with highes priority
will keep the file. Additionally, if we have a package overriding
another's file it's remembered and handled properly. This is
essentially to allow "policy packages" which just overwrite certain
(configuration) files from other package(s).
"replaces" is now turned to a full dependency type list, so you can
make package overwrite files only certain versions of the package
(though, we should probably take this into account already at solution
calculation phase).
Also make 'info --replaces' print the "replaces" of the package.
This is in preparation for the policy package support, which still
requires "replacement priority" field to decide which packages' files
get the preference.
Make indexer keep noise about errors that prevent index generation.
Detect certain errors in the APKs better. And also have the applet
return error in these scenarios.
move all files therein to other places. this allows /var to be
mounted from harddisk, but rest of system be run from ramdisk.
this also removes support for historical version of the scripts
database which was obsoleted in 2.0_pre16 (in July 2009).
Packages without architecture should get the platforms default
architecture (so we are backwards compatible). Only the virtual
packages should get 'noarch' by default. Also print full path
to the index file which failed.
