resolve reverse dependencies after all packages have been loaded,
and avoid traversing the reverse name lists. now that we use
automatic virtual packages (soname, pkg-config, etc.) the reverse
dependency chains can become considerable longer than what it was
when the rdependency construction code was originally written.
the security implications are not as high as compared to regular
tar/unzip archiver. this is because you are anyway trusting
the package to install files anywhere in the filesystem.
this serves rather as a sanity to check against errors in created
package.
user xattrs on tmpfs are not supported no non-grsec kernels,
and many times root fs is mounted without user_xattr. Thus
to allow things to go smoothly on non-grsec kernels xattr
unsupported errors are now hidden.
xattrs can be fixed still now with "apk fix --xattrs"
Package pinning was first implemented with 'p' tag. However, it
was before any release renamed to 's', and 'p' was reserved for
package provides support for which is used now.
there are only few combinations for that triplet, and they
occur multiple times reducing the struct sizes a bit. make
sane defaults and prepare to not write defaults to disk
to reduce on-disk installed db size.
Apk used to reset directory permissions always, but this is undesirable
if user has modified the permissions - especially during tmpfs boot.
Though, it is desirable to update the permissions when packaging has
changed permissions, or a new package is installed and the merged
permission mask / owner changes.
Thus the new code updates the permissions only if:
1) We are booting and directory is not in apkovl
2) The directory is modified by a package install/remove/upgrade
3) The filesystem directory permission matched database
Additionally "apk fix --directory-permissions" can be used to reset
all directory permissions to the database defaults.
Fixes#2966
Allows one arch index files to refer to other arch packages. Mostly
useful with noarch packages, but could be used e.g. to ship build
with some of packages optimized for specific cpu generation and
share most packages with the standard build.
basically this makes packager's life simpler as there is no need
to list the subpkg names in replaces. this was also very error
prone and tedious job to do properly.
This implements a new protected path flag '!' to include always
matching entries in the backup mode (overlay). This is also turned
on for etc/apk to include everything there in overlay, because
the full list of repositories and signing keys need to be in
overlay - just getting them from a package is not enough during
bootstrap.
Wildcard matching with no names should match all packages only for
info and search applet. "apk del" would otherwise try to delete
everything, etc.
Fix also interactive mode to ask questions only if we are actually
changing something.
