2012-12-14Added LOGDEST variableWilliam Giokas
Places logs in a pre-defined location. The logs are always neatly labeled with package names and numbers, and this way can be more easily sent to network shares as they are written or compressed/cleaned en masse.

2012-11-27makepkg: create package from stripped debug symbolsAllan McRae

2012-11-27makepkg: add option to include debugging compiler flagsAllan McRae
Add a "debug" option that appends the compiler flags specified in the variables DEBUG_CFLAGS and DEBUG_CXXFLAGS in makepkg.conf to their counterpart buildflags. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2012-11-27pactree: autodetect and use unicode line drawing charactersDave Reisner
Add a compile time check for langinfo.h so that we can possibly use unicode line drawing characters if the current locale is supportive of them. This can be explicitly disabled at runtime with the use of a new switch: -a, --ascii. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2012-11-27Add --needed option to makepkgwgiokas
Simply add the option to pass the --needed flag to pacman when using -i with makepkg. When using makepkg in scripts, particularly for git packages with the new version functions and not just a date, this can save disk io and time instead of reinstalling. This would mostly be useful with the --noconfirm option. Signed-off-by: wgiokas <1007380@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2012-11-27makepkg: use last match in BUILDENV/OPTIONS arrayAllan McRae
Using the last match in the BUILDENV and OPTIONS arrays allows the user to easily override these values without specifying the entire array. For example add "BUILDENV+=(sign)" in ~/.makepkg.conf. Fixes FS#26701. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2012-08-04makepkg: remove VCS package supportAllan McRae
The current VCS packaging support is really, really, really bad. It is best to strip it out completely before rewriting it. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2012-05-20pacman: support group selection delimited by commasDave Reisner
We support multiple arguments being comma separated elsewhere, so this seems like a natural extension to support in our multiparse selection code. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2012-05-04doc: remove --recursive documentation for non-remove operationsDan McGee
This documentation was added in commit 857357f9 so was not caught in the removal of this option in commit 85712814. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2012-04-24Split check steps in Makefile into multiple targetsDan McGee
This allows a `make -j4 check` invocation to actually run in parallel, even though 95% of our test suite time is currently dominated by pactest. It also allows running something like `make test-vercmp`. Also, add some targets to the .PHONY list that belong in it. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2012-04-24pacman-key: allow verification of multiple sig filesDave Reisner
Loop through arguments passed to verify_sig and treat each as a signature to be verified against a source file. Output each file as its checked to avoid ambiguity. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-24pacman-key: adopt parseopts for option parsingDave Reisner
This requires an ugly amount of reworking of how pacman-key handles options. The change simply to avoid passing keys, files, and directories as arguments to options, but to leave them as arguments to the overall program. This is reasonable since pacman-key limits the user to essentially one operation per invocation (like pacman). Since we now pass around the positional parameters to the various operations, we can add some better sanity checking. Each operation is responsible for testing input and making sure it can operate properly, otherwise it throws an error and exits. The doc is updated to reflect this, and uses similar verbiage as pacman, describing the non-option arguments now passed to pacman-key as targets. Similar to the doc, --help is reorganized to separate operations and options and remove argument tokens from operations. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-24makepkg: allow specifying --pkg multiple timesDave Reisner
Make this option additive, so that the following two operations are equivalent: makepkg --pkg foo --pkg bar makepkg --pkg foo,bar

2012-04-20pkgdelta: implement requirments for delta generationFlorian Pritz
Big deltas or deltas for very small packages are not needed so we should check that and not generate any. Signed-off-by: Florian Pritz <bluewind@xinu.at> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2012-04-12Remove SyncFirst optionDan McGee
This has outlived its usefulness and causes more problems than it solves. It has historically only ever been used to install pacman first. That should not be needed given we provide the vercmp utility (which has no library dependencies) and so calling pacman in install scripts is a sign of poor packaging.

Adds the ability to override the commands used to compressing compiled and source packages.
