sysutils/portupgrade-devel

Apply a hotfix against a bug introduced in the latest version where it fails in error when one specifies -r and has an empty +REQUIRED_BY.

Update to 20010817, with many improvements and some new features.

pkg_deinstall/pkg_glob, portupgrade:
  - Fix the glob expander to exclude not installed packages recorded
    in +CONTENTS and +REQUIRED_BY files.

pkg_deinstall/pkg_glob, portupgrade, portversion:
  - Properly handle regular expression errors.

pkg_glob:
  - Properly define a signal handler.
  - Show a better report.

portsdb: (overall)
   - Try doing make INDEX when no INDEX file is present, and if it
     fails raise an exception.

portupgrade:
  - Add a new option: -L/--log-prefix, with which a user can save a
    build & installation log file for each port/package.
  - Show a concise and helpful message for each upgrading error.  It
    now autoatically guesses the reason of each failure using the same
    algorithm that Ports Wraith's processlogs script uses.
  - Fix a bug where 'portupgrade -aE' raised an error.

portversion:
  - Support -r/-R/-x as other tools do.
  - Fix a bug where `portversion -E' raises an error.

Update to 20010816b.

Fix a trivial but annoying behavior.  Print progress messages during
(automatically) updating the ports database to stderr instead of
stdout, so the output of `portversion -c > script' won't contain any
unexpected progress messages.

Sorry.  Just repacked.  I had something I forgot to change. ;)

Update to 20010816 with some enhancements and an important change. (No bugs have been found in the previous version)

portupgrade, portversion, pkg_deinstall, pkg_glob, portsdb:

  - Add a new option -E/--regex, which allows you to use the extended
    regular expression instead of the shell glob pattern to specify
    packages or ports.

portupgrade:

  - [IMPORTANT] Turn -c/--clean and -C/--cleanup on by default.
    [Suggested by: Ian Dowse <iedowse@maths.tcd.ie>}

  - Now that -c/--clean is on by default, -Fc no longer means
    "fetch-only + do distclean before each fetch".  Instead, a new
    option -D/--distclean is added which can be used with or without
    -F/--fetch.

  - Add new options -w/--noclean and -W/--nocleanup.

  - Always do `make clean-depends' before building dependent ports.

  - Add a new option -E/--regex, which allows you to use the extended
    regular expression to specify packages.

  - Add a long option --use-packages-only for -PP.

  - Rewrite the WARNING section of the manpage and mention
  pkgdepfix(1) in it.
    [Suggested by: Ian Dowse <iedowse@maths.tcd.ie>]

pkg_glob, pkg_deinstall:

  - Add back long options.

Update to 20010814, with some enhanced support for coping with cyclic dependencies.

- Fix a bug in the cyclic dependencies handler where it couldn't
  always cope with a cycle properly.
  [Problem found by: Fritz Heinrichmeyer <jfh@jfh00.fernuni-hagen.de>]
- Don't emit a confusing error message "Cannot update the ports DB!"
  on a recoverable error.
- Implement a cyclic dependencies fixer in pkgdepfix(1).

(Cyclic dependencies could never be generated if ports are made
properly..)

Reword more.

Update to 20010812, just a minor update.

- Reword and fix documents.
- Make portsdb -U not imply -u.

Update pkg-comment and pkg-descr.

Add a hotfix to support the "MD5 (file) = IGNORE" case.

Update to 20010811.

portsclean:
  - Rewrite in Ruby and implement the distfiles cleaner. [new]

portsdb:
  - Show a progress message while updating INDEX.*.
  - Record version information into INDEX.rdo.
  - Record category information into INDEX.rdo and enhance the API
    accordingly.
  - Introduce the automatic PORTS_DBDIR selector.  Now it will use
    whichever writable directory in the following ones: $PORTS_DBDIR,
    $PORTS_DIR, /usr/ports, $PKG_DBDIR, /var/db/pkg, $TMPDIR, /var/tmp,
    /tmp (checked in the order named)

portcvsweb:
  - New tool: a tool to open CVSweb to view a CVS log. [new]

Update to 20010809.

pkg_deinstall:
	- Bring in most of the options of pkg_delete(1).
	- Add a new option `-P', which preserves shared libraries.
	- List failed packages if any.
	- Obsolete GNU style long options, which take space and would
	  only rarely be used.

portupgrade:
	- Make portupgrade use pkg_deinstall instead of pkg_delete, to
	  utilize its -P option.

	- Now portupgrade always uninstalls old packages, but
	  preserves shared libraries by default.  The -u option has
	  been changed to mean "Do not preserve old shared libraries".
	  Note, however, that its behavior is the same as before, it
	  is just the default behavior that has been changed.

	  With this change, portupgrade no longer leaves extra garbage
	  even if you don't specify -u, but only old versions of
	  shared libraries for safety. :)

	- Utilize $tmpdir properly for pkg_tarup. (previously
	  PKGREPOSITORY was used prior to PKG_TMPDIR or TMPDIR)

	- Add a notice regarding the disk space for backup files.

Since it's my birthday today, I just wish this update doesn't contain
terrible bugs.. ;)

Update to 20010802, only a minor update.

overall:
- Fix commands not to quit when user answers ^D to a yes/no question.
- Call pkg_* commands in fullpaths.

portupgrade:
- When -s is specified, run sudo to build & install dependent ports
  when some are missing, too.

portsclean:
- This is a new command which cleans ports' working directories.

Update to 20010730 with some enhancements.

portupgrade:
- Make portupgrade a little bit more fail-safe by restoring modified
dependency info on installation failure.

portversion:
- Make portversion refer to the ports database and run several times
faster. (!)

portsdb:
- Do not immediately fail in error when it finds an error in the INDEX
  file, but skip the line and continue.

Update to 20010727 with a couple of new commands added. (No changes have been made to the existing utilities)

pkg_deinstall:	This is a package deinstaller with wildcards and
		dependency recursion support.

pkg_glob:	This is a package glob expander with wildcards and
		dependency recursion support.

Update to 20010714, a maintenance release.

2001-07-14 17:05  knu

	* misc/zsh/: _pkgdepfix, _portupgrade, _portversion: Improve zsh
	compdefs.

2001-07-14 16:40  knu

	* portupgrade.1: Fix manpage.
	[Submitted by: Sean Chittenden <sean@chittenden.org>]

2001-07-03 14:26  knu

	* pkgdepfix.1, portsdb, portsdb.1, portsdb.rb, portupgrade.1:
	Introduce a new environment variable PORTS_DBDIR, which specifies
	an alternative ports database directory.  This is useful when
	/usr/ports is on a readonly filesystem.
	[Requested by: Makoto MATSUSHITA <matusita@jp.freebsd.org>]

	Warn and abort the update if PORTS_DBDIR is not writable,
	instead of just failing in error.

Update to 20010627.  Enhance the behaviors of some flags:

-B CMD
    --beforebuild CMD	Run the sapecified command before each build.  If the
			command exits in failure, the port/package will be
			skipped.  Here is some typical uses:

			portupgrade -B 'cvs update' 'gnome*'

			portupgrade -aB 'test ! `make -V IS_INTERACTIVE`'

    -x GLOB
    --exclude GLOB	Exclude packages matching the specified glob pattern.
			Exclusion is performed after recursing dependency in
			response to -r and/or -R, which means, for example,
			the following command will upgrade all the packages
			depending on XFree86 but leave XFree86 as it is:

			portupgrade -rx XFree86 XFree86

Update to 20010622, a maintenance release with better diagnostic messages.

Whoops, 20010617 had an installation problem.

Revise pkg-descr.

Update to 20010617.

portupgrade:
  Add a new option: -N/--new.  If it is specified, portupgrade
  installs a new one when a specified package is not installed.

portinstall:
  New command equivalent to `portupgrade -N'.  You can specify a port
  origin to name the one you want to install, too:
    e.g. `portinstall shells/zsh'

Update to 20010615.

This is a maintenance release.

  - Manpages provided.
  - Ports DB got faster.
  - Wording fixed.
  - New feature added to portsdb(1): you can use it to expand
    port/pkgname globs. (archivers/p5-*, zsh, gnome*, etc.)

Oops, wrong checksum.

Update to 20010611, with many changes and enhancements. Beware of bugs, just in case. ;)

portupgrade:
  - Sort packages by default and remove -s/--sort.
  - Rename -y/--yield/-Y/--yield-command to -s/--sudo/-S/--sudo-command.
  - Implement -a/--all.
  - Implement -x/--exclude=GLOB.
  - Exit on OptionParser::ParseError immediately.
  - Do not call "make fetch-recursive" but just "make fetch", now that
    portupgrade does recursion itself.
  - In fetch mode, specify -DPACKAGE_BUILDING for ports that define
    IS_INTERACTIVE. [Submitted by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it>]]

portversion:
  - Exit on OptionParser::ParseError immediately.

portsdb:
  - New tool: which updates INDEX and INDEX.db in the ports directory.

pkgdepfix:
  - Implement origin fixer with intelligent guessing, finally!
    (-o/--fix-origin)
  - Make pkgdep guessing more intelligent.

Clarify that portupgrade can do upgrade by means of both the port and the package.

Change pkg_tarup to ${LOCALBASE}/sbin/pkg_tarup in RUN_DEPENDS.

Found by:	bento

Update to 20010607b.

portupgrade:
  - Change the meaning of -P/--use-packages.  If specified once, it
    uses packages whenever available or uses ports.  If specified
    twice, it never try to use ports but only uses packages.

  - The package directory is now specified via the environment
    variable, by PKGREPOSITORY and PKGREPOSITORYSUBDIR.

Print the usages to stdout instead of stderr.

Update to 20010607.

portupgrade:
  - Implement -P/--use-packages, which everyone bugged me with. :>

pkgdepfix:
  - Add "delete" to the choices as to how to deal with a stale
    dependency.
  - Alter the prompt message.
  - Add zsh compdef.

Update to 20010606b.

pkgdepfix:
  - Implement automatic guessing.
  - Add yes-to-all to the choices of yes/no prompt.
  - Do "stty sane" on interrupt.

portupgrade:
  - Backing up +REQUIRED_BY must have been done before pkg_delete.
    [Submitted by: SASAKI Katuhiro <sahiro@vanilla.freemail.ne.jp>]

Because of the portupgrade bug, portupgrade -u would have broken some
of your +REQUIRED_BY files.  Please fix them up with pkgdepfix.

From now on I use release dates for this port's version numbers, and this is version 20010606.

A new tool pkgdepfix is added.  It allows you to interactively fix
/var/db/pkg's @pkgdep / +REQUIRED_BY discrepancies.  Run this
periodically to let portupgrade properly trace dependencies.

Update portupgrade to 1.42.

I think I have finally fixed the problem some people have seen that it
deletes a package registry in some cases!  At the same time, -m and -p
now works properly again.

Those problems were all due to Shellwords::shellwords' destroying its
given string.  Thanks to Tadayuki OKADA <tadayuki@mediaone.net> for
sending me a report that made me realize what the problem was.

De-typo (s/priviledge/privilege/g) with no PORTREVISION bump.

Update portupgrade to 1.40.  A bug with pkgdep has been fixed.

I'd like to call this a stable release, and take a rest for a while
until the next stable release. ;)

Update portupgrade to 1.39.

* Fix file permissions and owners of replaced files.
* Stop raising a false alarm. (which was harmless, though..)

Update portupgrade to 1.36.

* No need to recurse @pkgdep search, really.
* Support the latest pkg_tarup.
* Backup +REQUIRED_BY a bit earlier, just in case.
* If it fails to copy the new +REQUIRED_BY to the package's dbdir,
  emit a message and save the file in TMPDIR.

Apply a hotfix against a critical bug that +CONTENTS are lost when you do upgrade as root and TMPDIR and /var/db/pkg are on different filesystems.

Update to 1.34.  Now it never tries to yield root priviledges unless -y is specified.

Update to 1.33.  More operations need root priviledges.

Update portupgrade to 1.31 and portversion to 1.7.

* Fix the Makefile/PKGNAME error detection.
  [Reported by:	Tadayuki OKADA <tadayuki@mediaone.net>]

* Implement -y/--yield which yields root priledges where needed.

* Implement -Y/--yield-command which specifies the command to yield
  root priledges. (default: sudo)

Update to portupgrade 1.29.

portupgrade:
	- Fix a bug that -s/--sort didn't work.  D'oh!
	- Make -u/--uninstall fail-safe.  It backs up old
	  installations with the help of pkg_tarup and restores on
	  installation failure.
        - Show option errors more gracefully.
        - Die on signals more gracefully.

portversion:
	- Show option errors more gracefully.
        - Die on signals more gracefully.

Update to 1.28 which fixes a bug when a package does not have @pkgdep or +REQUIRED_BY.

Reported by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it>

I'll debug harder next time.  Sorry for this. :(

Update to portupgrade 1.27.

Everything should now be fine while bug reports and thoughtful
suggestions are always welcome.

Apply a hotfix to fix a couple of bugs/misfeatures.

Update portupgrade to 1.26 and portversion to 1.4. This is a milestone release for me.  Enjoy. :>

portupgrade changes:
  - Implement -s/--sort which sorts packages in the dependency order.
  - Implement -R/--upward-recursive, and get -r/--recursive working for
    upgrading as well. (Finally!)
  - Add -DBATCH to the make fetch' commandline to prevent ports from
    dumbly waiting for user input.

  Greatly inspired by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it> (Thanks!!)

portversion changes:
  - Make command output optimal by using portupgrade's -s option.
  - Report possible ports' Makefile breakage.

Fix a rmdir line so it never fails.

Submitted by:	Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@FreeBSD.org>

Update to 1.25.

Update to 1.23.

- Add BSD-style license notice.
- Show the revision on help (-h).
- Do distclean before each fetch if -c is specified with -F.

Update to 1.20.

2001-04-18 03:36  knu

	* misc/zsh/_portupgrade: Add -F.

2001-04-18 03:35  knu

	* portupgrade: Add -F/--fetch option to make dial-up users happy.

	Submitted by:	Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it>
			(He suggested -e, but I prefered -F)

	Show what version a package is upgraded to to help a user decide
	whether to upgrade or not.

	Submitted by:	Timothy Smith <tim@mysql.com>

Resurrect portversion for what it's worth as a reference code.  The
problems that kept it from working has been addressed and will
hopefully be fixed soon. :)

Get rid of the mention of portversion in pkg-descr.

Say good-bye to portversion.  Now we have new pkg_version(1) which does handle versions correctly.

By the way, I'll have to find a workaround for the ruby's thread
vs. libc_r (stdio/malloc) problem exposed by portversion...  Hmm.
