this makes 'lbu diff' and aaudit diffs nice when a world
dependency is added or removed. sorting also makes the ordering
more deterministic as the world targets constraints are always
applied in the same order. test suite updated accordingly.
when removing large sets of packets, the ordering of removal
was not quaranteed to honor dependencies. this fixes the removal
order to be in reverse dependency order as far as possible.
This makes sure any conflicted packages will be removed first.
Useful if we know there are conflicting files, and want to avoid
adding potentially harmful replaces line. Add a test case for
this too.
noticeable fixes upgrading of packages which get pulled in only
by install_if rule. this also simplifies the inheritance calculation
for packages, as well as the place where it is done for install_if
triggered packages.
'available' really means 'available in one or more configured
repository'. Cache is not a repository we track, so those are
only available for installation, but not available as preferred
to be installed from repository. fixes#2831.
We should not disqualify non-selectable packages as it would mark it as
dirty, forcing it to reconsider the name again, which could end up in
an endless loop.
fixes#2135
If name N is required, and all providers of A also provide B, it
means that only instances of B can be selected that provide N. This
is strong help with cases when so:libfoo.so.1 is updated to
so:libfoo.so.2 and not everything is recompiled.
Select latest version of package (if it is not pinned), and print
error if it cannot be installed due to other dependencies.
Together with --available, it selects the latest package which is
present at least in some repository.
This also fixes few solver issues with ordering of package selection
that got quite apparent with this flag. Namely, we cannot "lock"
a package until it's reverse dependencies are locked or not all of
the solver flags are propagated properly.
Instead of the dependency oriented logic, switch to print them
for each package or name needed. Might give a bit more readable
errors now. There's still few corner cases that proper error is
not output, which are cought by the test cases.
- try harder to not change anything during self-upgrade
- also honor locking to packages that where earlier used in
merging common dependencies
- clarify upgrade applet help messages
make cache a special kind of repository, and automatically cache
special packages (virtual packages, or ones installed from command
line). add test cases for handling virtual packages. fixes#1617.
It is incorrect optimization causing valid solutions to be skipped.
Any performance it might've gained, should be fixed by reintroduction
of the minimum penalty logic added in previous commit.
Enabled when all attempts to satisfy a name failed, we know that we
can ignore all decisions until we find a decision affecting the name
we wanted to satisfy.
We can't just use the primary name, as that would mess up
backtracking. We need to record the name which caused the name
to get considered - that way the right last_touched_decision is
used on backtracking.
* push_decision expects to always get the package primary 'name'
as apk_name. ASSERT that and fix problem cases.
(though - this might need to be reverted, and store the non
primary name in apk_decision instead to accomodate for better
backtracking optimizations)
* fix error reporting of virtual package names
* make 'assign_name' errors soft. the incorrect packages just are
no longer consider instead of aborting whole calculation.
* fix backtracking of virtual packages that are not depended
directly
