21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: TGL's fixes
for exec/child/wait problems. Unset GREP_OPTIONS GREP_COLOR. has() and use()
no longer attempt to determine if they are to be quiet or noisy -- They
default to noisy -- useq() and hasq() are the non-verbose versions.
EBUILD_PHASE set to add a hack-ish way around global scope calls in
eclasses -- NOTHING SHOULD BE CALLED IN THE GLOBAL SCOPE. Touchup to the
inherit() code that should finally allow the removal of the ECLASS and
INHERITED settings. Removed tty (use/has) calls. Removed dirname calls --
portage.py handles setting the dbkey filename now.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Ed Catmur's
(with a little TGL added in) patch for --ask. Added a 'metadata' target
that skips the sync and only updates the cache. FEATURES="getbinpkg" added.
TGL's exit code fixes. Fixed match code for -S so it doesn't complain about
specific and double versions. Unmerge via dbpath fix. Rewrote rsync's
options that supports --verbose and --quiet operation now and can force
checksumming all files using --debug. Sort the files in the cache update
so it's a little more predictable.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: changed
--strip-debug to --strip-unneeded.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> getbinpkg.py: Updates to
enable HTTP/HTTPS authentication.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: best_from_dict
added to grab the best entry from set of dicts using a list of the keys for
priority. jstubb's patch to fix listdir -- splits it into a cache and list
setup. jstubb's patch for varexpand to handle $VAR better. Latexer's patch
for KernelVersion code to use Makefiles instead of the version.h. Modules
are loaded from /etc/portage/modules or defaults, whichever works. Fixed
the /etc/make.profile-is-missing traceback. Spawn can be given 3 pipes to
redirect stdin,stdout,stderr to specific outputs, terminals, or files.
TGL's patch for cache functions in portage.py so that they do not cache at
inappropriate times. PORTAGE_TMPFS is now used if set as a temporary file
operation area -- recommended to actually be a ramfs/tmpfs filesystem for
speed. Genone enhanced the deprecated profile patch.
31 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed --skipfirst
bug. This closes #36880.
29 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: TGL's patch
for imporving overlay verbose. This closes #39765.
27 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed
autouse bug. autouse were ignored.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Output failed
cache updates during emerge sync.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: VDB_PATH fixes.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Only use
custom profiles when not called by repoman. ROOT never changes profile
roots, only custom/system profiles var/cache/edb/virtuals. Sandbox fix
where sandbox was creating an invalid logfile (not giving a summary)
due to a '/' in SANDBOX_LOG. Turned down the Lockfile output. Double
check the INCOMPLETE MERGE identifications as it can be caused by cache.
24 Jan 2004; <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Improved timestamp check
when 'emerge sync'. Added catching amiguous error when unmerge.
This closes #24325.
23 Jan 2004; <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py: Fixed 2 bugs.
Portage doesn't read local virtuals file, which happens on only cvs
version. package is blocked by itself.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge:
Fix from genone for emerge's direct reading of packages and his patch
that also adds in /etc/portage/profile as a stacked profile.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Completed
inheritence capabilities for portage.config reading some files. Moved a
copy of the getvirtuals() function into settings to handle multiple
profiles properly.
*portage-2.0.50_pre17/18/19 (21 Jan 2004): Modules for DBs and quick fixes
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Moved all references
to var/db/pkg to portage.VDB_PATH --- This will change again -- NEED TO
BE MOVED INTO A PATH/CONSTANTS SETUP.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> dosed: Quick fix for
the basename missing/misplaced issue.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added
/dev/console to PREDICT to attempt a workaround for a serial console
bug. dbkey is now set through portage.py/doebuild to allow for modular
db code.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: regen doesn't
require root anymore. Edited the timestamp check to be a little more
friendly -- delete the portdir timestamp and it won't use the alternate.
Fix some permission settings. Added some warnings in for cachedirs that
are very likely to ruin your system. Cleaned out some of the eclass code
that isnt valid any longer.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portageq: Added vdb_path
as a target to get the db directory. Quickpkg uses this.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added
load_mod() -- grabs a class/function from a module and passes it back
without loading the module into the global scope. Added unique_array()
which eliminates duplicates from an array. grab_stacked() operates like
the other grab* and getconfig functions, but takes a filename and a set
of paths that it will apply incrementally or clobbers -- for profile
inheritance. getconfig no longer exits on non-existance returns None.
Class config now should be passed a profile path and a set of incremental
values instead of using the globals -- defaults to using the globals
presently and print an error message. Adding support for module configs
as a set of strings 'class.subclass.objectmodule':'module.to.use.object'
for load_mod and the database modules. Profile inheritance started. Killed
the eclass() super-function and replaced it with class eclass_cache that
is visible and conceptually simpler -- Also uses the plugable modules.
Cleaned out the sync calls for the DBs. MASSIVE simplification of the
aux_get code -- removed memory-caching in favor of system cache (actually
faster in all cases so far -- P100 and P4-2.2G). Lockfile usage around the
cachefile.
21 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage_db_*: Updated
the API a little but to have permissions set properly. A little more
reorganization and removed the keycount checks.
21 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: download size
should not be displayed when the package is nomerge with --tree.
20 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py: Reverted
ambiguity package fix in cpv_expand().
20 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Moved
backup timestamp.chk file from portage tree to PORTAGE_TMPDIR.
20 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Reverted the
backing up the timestamp.chk fix.

message without --debug. This should close #23840.
19 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Improved
timestamp check of rsync. This should close #37403.
19 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py: Improved
regeneration ld.so.cache. This should close #37858.
19 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed bug which
emerge doesn't block same package but different version.
(example: DEPEND="!<cat/pkg-1.0.0" in cat/pkg-1.0.0.ebuild)
19 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Modified cpv_expand() to check package.mask. This should close #38592.
19 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py: Escaped
regualar expression for replace entry in fixdbentries().
18 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Fixed AUTOCLEAN delay problem in .50pre* by TGL's patch. This close
#38189. Fixed unmerge failture bug when 'ebuild foo-1.0.0 unmerge'.
These close #38189, #38366
18 Jan 2004; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py:

above. Catch invalid package names and print a sane message about it.
*portage-2.0.50_pre13 (11 Jan 2004): Fixes
11 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: Updated the
Advanced masking section to aid the reduction of user complaints and
requests for unreasable usage of ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.
11 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: A counter
fix was fixed to actually check the counters of all CP versions to ensure
the new counter is higher than all existing ones. Modified the dblink
class to have class lockfiles for the db and tmpdb dirs as well as lock
other files before editing. Reorganization of the merge code in dblink
so that the tmpdb is filled immediately after preinst and prior to the
actual FS merging -- COUNTER and CONTENTS go directly into the tmpdb
and not into the infodir.
*portage-2.0.50_pre11/12 (09 Dec 2003): repoman/binpkg/exit conditions
09 Jan 2004; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: getbinpkgonly

Fixed 'emerge sync' issue which continuously connects to same host.
31 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Found the line

the symlink corruption in the db from the movefile() bug.
29 Dec 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py:

ending up inside the sandbox. Added more output and logging to sync.
15 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: 'tree' is not

as it isn't used, and was deprecated for a long while. Genone's fetching
size display added for --verbose. License display added. Added a little
debug for IUSE so we can figure out the binary package --verbose IUSE
issues that are randomly reported. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX's 'buildsyspkg'
patch for building only system packages into tbz2s. Unmerge fix for new
settings instances. RSYNC_RATELIMIT added.
10 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: ADA path
variables added to specials for env_update. Error messaeg correction for
make.defaults syntax errors. Unmerge now uses the environment file, if it
exists, to get the complete environment back to perform unmerge operations.
load_infodir() uses pkg settings completely now. Fixed the passing of
settings in unmerge and dblink. Fixed an issue regarding unlinking lockfiles
while inside of a sandbox.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh, *.sh:
Moved helper scripts into bin/functions and made them sourceable -- they
now will die in cases where sub-parts fail. dodoc and keepdir are now
recursive-capable.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: emerge.log now
set as portage:portage with 0660 perms. --debug now enables tracebacks
for dep generation instead of moving code out of the try block.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> g-cpan.pl: rac's patch
to get arch list from portage's list of arches in the profiles.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Moved a bit of
the existing gpg code around -- it might work as is, but requires 'sign'
in features. Fixed a potential for repoman to miss updates that should
get a new manifest and commit. Fixed digest/manifest generation for
non-packagedir runs of repoman.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emergehelp.py, make.conf,
getbinpkg.py: Message touch ups.
09 Dec 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: load_infodir()
uses pkg settings now instead of env and backup. Genone's custom mirror
patch included. Added some missing 'strict' flags for recursion in digest*().
Refixed the invalidentry stuff that was lost across patch merges. Fix for
pkg-keywords from genone included. Genone's deprecated profile patch for
reporting to a user that their current profile is deprecated. Message about
missing arch.list instead of spouting invalid keywords messages.
08 Dec 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> repoman:
Added all arch dependency check. This closes bug #24160.
07 Dec 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge,portage.py:
Fixed bugs. 1.--debug doesn't work 2.Portage breaks files
in /var/db/*/*. 3.No stop if dependency problem happens.
They are only cvs version problems.
01 Dec 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed bug which
always remakes info dir file.
29 Nov 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed issue with
ebuild name rule. Fixed typo with variable name.
This closes bug #17172,#34666
29 Nov 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed issue with
lacking the "setting" argument for pkgmerge()
29 Nov 2003; Masatomo Nakano <nakano@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed rsync bug.
This closes bug #34660.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Migration
to non-global settings started -- class config has new functionality and
is locked after portage is finished initializing -- changes cannot be made
to the global instance of config 'settings' -- reset() is now functional,
setcpv() loads PKGUSE from /etc/portage/package.use, load_infodir() loads
all small files (under 4k) from the vardb directory of an installed package
so that operations have the same post* settings as they had at merge time.
Begin modifications to spawn() to allow for files/pipes to be used for
IO instead of using getstatusoutput which does not take an environment
parameter like execve(). check_config_instance() ensures that the provided
parameter is a 'class config' instance -- for ensuring that everything is
being passed properly with the changes. Fix for the local FS mirror issue
where it removed the first '/' instead of the last one. doebuild() cleanups
for readability and pkguse enhancements -- also remove getstatusoutput()
usage for depend so that we don't have to modify the active environment.
Fix for symlink mtime values returned from movefile. (Nakano) SLOTMOVE
added to global update functionality to fix some issues where a package
suddenly must become slotted. portdbapi takes a root parameter instead
of using settings. Slightly more useful output from depend. binarytree()
now takes a pkgdir instead of using settings. Portage will now die if
ebuild.sh exits on a signal.
Moved some functions around and renamed them for general use -- derived
from match2 in class portagetree:
match_to_list() find all atoms in a list that match a given package.
best_match_to_list() determines the most specific match. Needs work.
match_from_list() find all packages in a list that match a given atom.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed an issue
with searchdesc wanting root permissions if run as non-root. Migrated to
the non-global config class. EMERGE_FROM added for the dyn_preinst patch
-- Indicates if a merge is occuring from an ebuild or from a binary. Patch
for rsync timestamp checking from Nakano.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Save PKGUSE.
Pebeneto's patch for dyn_preinst and SELinux added as a fix for binary
and ebuild merges. Added a kill for portage during the depend phase so
that portage will actually die if you control-C.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: MASSIVE set of changes
to start using locally defined 'class config' instances. This allows us to
start working on some parallelism among other things. Created this way:
mysettings = portage.config(clone=portage.settings)
The Following functions now take a 'config' parameter:
spawn(), fetch(), digestgen(), digestcheck(), spawnebuild(), doebuild(),
merge(), dep_opconvert(), dep_check(), dblink.__init__()
package.keywords is now implemented curtasy of genone/max. PKGUSE was
rewritten for the global config killing and is also included. X11 man
pages now found and zipped correctly. SYS.PATH fixes for the python
migration -- issue actually only shows up on 2.2 systems because of how
compiled modules are used if found regardless of the original source's
existance.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> tabcheck.py: An easier
way to make sure that all the python stuff is correctly using tabs and
not mixing spaces.
28 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak, xpak.py: Fixes
to ensure that it works if the current dir is missing and that the python
path gets set properly.
22 Nov 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed
calls in vartree method to invalidentry().... made them call call
self.dbapi.invalidentry() (there were multiple wrong method calls.)
10 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> md5check.py: Checks all
digests and SRC_URIs for filenames and associated MD5s. Reports collisions
between versions/packages, missing, and extra lines in digests.
*portage-2.0.49-r17/18 (10 Nov 2003): Fixes
10 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Changed portage to
be the first path in sys.path for all python scripts. Also enabled
optimizations from the scripts to ensure everything imported is built
for speed. ebuild: applied fix for the '//' root breaking the db[].
prepstrip: etdyn quickfix
10 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: fix for
RESTRICT=nouserpriv. GENTOO_MIRRORS can have paths set to take files
from. Fixes for mishandled cache data regarding *pkgsplit(). Fixes for
'*' being returned as part of a package split. An 'invalidentry()' fix
for a traceback. Nakano's fixes for virtual removals not working properly,
sandbox violations during pkg_nofetch, || depend selection. Genone's
fixpackages speedup.
10 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: PORTAGE_TMPDIR
fix for distcc. Variable passing bug patch for export_functions. Exit 1
added for nofetch to stop sandbox violation. Nakano's --tree patch added.
Improved the unmerge messages to denote what kind of unmerge fails. Info
pages regex pattern adjusted to allow most any name for a page.
10 Nov 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: genone's xml
linting additions.
01 Nov 2003; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> pym/cvstree.py:
fix bug #32071, by properly escaping a string to not be a regex. Checked
thru entire *.py tree and found this is the only mis-use of strings that
need to be escaped.
31 Oct 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: /lib/modules
now gets "unmerge protection." This is half of the config protection
functionality. It means that anything in /lib/modules will not be deleted
when a package is unmerged (often automatically when a user merges a
kernel module ebuild for a new kernel.) This solves the "my module
disappeared!" issue. This closes bug #1477.
31 Oct 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: Should no longer
spit out wacky "!!! no match found" warnings when auto-cleaning.
30 Oct 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Only run
depscan.sh if it exists on disk. This allows Portage to run inside a stage1
where /sbin/depscan.sh doesn't exist.
30 Oct 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Applied fix to
allow multi-level "use? ( )" in SRC_URI, closing bug #16159.
*portage-2.0.49-r15/16 (21 Oct 2003): Fixes
21 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> fix-db.py: was broken
for python2.3 -- fixed now.
21 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added
lockfiles to prelink md5 checks. Fixed caching bug where cache objects
were passed back as pointers instead of copies. Added 'invalidentry'
function to handle lockfiles -- It tests/deletes them using unlockfile.
Added fix-db.py to the 'databases is broken' messages.
21 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: added CDPATH
to unset. SELinux fix for sandbox.

10 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Full adaptations
for python2.3 implemented. Installation setup for /usr/lib/portage/pym
instead of site-packages. Fix for Old-Instance unmerging which stopped
happening due to changed path names. Binaries shouldn't merge under
fetchonly.
*portage-2.0.49-r11/12 (08 Oct 2003): Internal Only.
*portage-2.0.49-r10 (08 Oct 2003): Fixes
08 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed a
seemingly random traceback involving lockfiles -- Categories weren't
being created before a lockfile was attempted in the category directory.
More enhancements to aid migration to python-2.3. Added writemsg() as
a general function for outputting information -- Takes an argument that
is interpreted as debug level and prints synchronisly to stderr. Yanked
domenu pending a GLEP.
*portage-2.0.49-r9 (07 Oct 2003): Fixes
07 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Atomic lock
updates and self.create() fixes. Counter enhancements.
*portage-2.0.49-r8 (05 Oct 2003):
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Changed #! line to
use /usr/bin/python to aid in migration.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: More use/has
output fixups.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: General cleanups.
Added in baselayout info to emerge info. --skipfirst isn't a persistent
option on resume anymore.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> fix-db.py: New script to
aid in diagnosing and eventually fixing /var/db issues. It makes almost no
modifications at the moment.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: Addition of
a condition for etdyn binaries -- they list as shared objects but aren't.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Added non-cvs
patch -- repoman can be used outside of cvs trees for scanning/checking.
Added a masking fix for packages that use 'arch?' dependencies. Permission
fix on stats pickle.
05 Oct 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Subversion
directories are ignored along with CVS in listdir() when ignorecvs is set.
USE_EXPAND is fixed. Global and package counter fixes. ATOMIC VARDB moves
are now implemented -- Still need a way to recover broken operations.
Counter functions are now implemented in dbapi only. vardbapi now implements
aux_get for all possible files listed in the package's info directory. New
functions: lockfile()/lockdir(), unlockfile()/unlockdir().
*portage-2.0.49-r7 (26 Sep 2003): Binary package fixes + spacing issues.
26 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge.sh: Spacing fixes
for tab/space mixes. glob fix for getgccversion().
26 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fix for binary
use flag tb.
26 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak.py: Fix for scan()
tb when file is invalid or shorter than XPAK header length.
*portage-2.0.49-r6 (23 Sep 2003): SELinux, DistCC, and pretend output fixes.
23 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: selinux context
fixes -- using ${T} now. DISTCC_DIR added by default and given an addwrite.
23 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: gccversion() added
to help distcc and the version checking calls that break distcc permissions.
Fix for create() and the useflag passing from binary packages. When using
pkgs, is_newer_ver_installed() no longer trashes ebuild names. Don't look
for fetch restrictions with binary packages. Included a modified patch that
shows only in-slot versions for packages during pretend output -- In-slot
now shows up exactly as a single-slot package would -- New slots show up
as new packages -- proper output. Killed debug for everything except regen
which now shows the deps being regenerated. Fixed regen to ignore keywords
just like sync does already... should fix a few missing cache entry problems
on rsync1 and speed up sync times all around.
23 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Additions for
distcc support.
*portage-2.0.49-r5 (19 Sep 2003): Fixes

introduced bugs with Str+None tracebacks. Mild change to log info -- Added
short pkgname before ebuild. Eclassdb changes and flush/save calls.
19 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Unregister
signal handling after receiving the signal and resend the signal we got.
Run depscan during env-update. Migrated eclass stuff into it's own pickle.
Code for moving /var/cache/edb/dep into a pickle for each category added --
disabled via hardcoded value presently. Removed some try blocks in favor
of detecting the cause of an error first -- Hopefully gives a little speed
up. Cache fixes and useful output added. A tbz2 moving bug where an error
was printed about files the destination existing already is now fixed. The
dircache is cleared on every unmerge now, to ensure the cache does not
interfere. bzip2 is spawned with the quiet flag now. Update list is sorted
for proper year/quarter order now. -arch isn't an invalid keywork anymore.
Generic pickle reading and writing functions added.
*portage-2.0.49-r4 (10 Sep 2003): Fixes
10 Sep 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Added the facility
to incorporate binary package use flags when calculating deps. Changes in
-r2 and -r3 included quick fixes to SELinux code and the addition of
LINGUAS to USE_EXPAND.
*portage-2.0.49-r1 (25 Aug 2003): Fixes
25 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: -K traceback fix.
Made fetchonly quit traversing the merge code after fetching.
25 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Removed
auxcache saving code -- A few bugs and caching problems need to be resolved.
Moved a block of code in aux_get inside of an existing conditional -- Should
provide a small speedup.
*portage-2.0.49 (22 Aug 2003): GRP downloading, Selinux, General Fixes
22 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Make

20 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fix for
auxcache saving.

20 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Updates to Wayne's
modifications on dispatch-conf.
20 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: sfperms
added to strip permissions if set in features. selinux context support.
Nakano's cleanups for unmerge output. Added distcc and ccache versions
into emerge info's output. 'autoaddcvs' FEATURE is documented in make.conf.
20 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Selinux code
added. No longer traceback on cp_list for categories. Added in a patch to
use a pickle for auxcache storing. Should help slow IO boxes.
*portage-2.0.49_pre18 (15 Aug 2003): Fixes.
15 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Nakano's
fix for a glob expansion bug on a tar call.
15 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Nakano's fixes
for exiting on a signal and incorrect output for the unmerge screen.

patch to shuffle thirdparty mirrors. Nakano's fixes for digests+fetching
bugs/messages/errors. Virtual stripping fix.
15 Aug 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Fix to emerge -V
and related output. Typo fixes. Parent thread no longer drops root in
userpriv. 'autoaddcvs' feature now determines if portage will auto-add
files to cvs. Virtuals fix for an empty key line. Added user categories
file as /etc/portage/categories.
*portage-2.0.49_pre17 (30 Jul 2003): Resuming/wget GRP, Sandbox updates
30 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: GRP updates to
use RESUMECOMMAND to determine how to download GRP binaries. Adjustments
to the portage.spawn() code to try and speed it up by eliminating the
copy phase (copy-on-write forking). Massive messages for corrupt FS issues.
Movefile() checks to ensure we actually complete the moves. Killed the
broken pipe message for tbz2 extraction.
*portage-2.0.49_pre16 (29 Jul 2003): Touchups
29 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Clean up the debug
output and quickfix downloading tbz2s.
*portage-2.0.49_pre15 (29 Jul 2003): Fixes
29 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: imported time.
29 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Corrected the
logic used to determine whether a package or an ebuild is used when given
the option.
29 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Changed a
lot of calls using 'print' into sys.stderr.write() calls. Added try/except
around the source lstat to catch funky errors where the file doesn't really
exist -- Presents descriptions to users about what to do. Added more catches
for movefile() calls to ensure it dies on failures. Changed the tbz2
extraction call to stop the 'cat: broken pipe' message.
*portage-2.0.49_pre14/48-r7 (24 Jul 2003): Fixes and getbinpkg caching
22 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Typo fixes for
the ECLASS_DEPTH comparisons in ebuild.sh. Traceback fixes for blocking
packages in depclean and in pretend. Caching added to getbinpkg code --
generation of cache supported, but cachefile is staticly located. Langs
patch from Nakano in bug #9988 included.
*portage-2.0.49_pre13 (22 Jul 2003): Fixes
22 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> doman: Doesn't gzip
.keep files now.
22 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: USERLAND
fix. ** ECLASS depth tracker and additions to the new depend code. **
22 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Fetch restriction
now adds a red F to the pretend output. Made the blockers message better.
Added 'local' to rsync excludes to allow the category to be added for admins.
22 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed a TB
caused by a missing 'strict' reference --- Needs to be fixed better. Fixed
a typo in the populate code for bintree/getbinpkg.
*portage-2.0.49_pre11 (16 Jul 2003): GRP, General, VIDEO_CARDS/INPUT_DEVICES
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> quickpkg: SpanKY's
friendly edition now included.
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: USE_EXPAND
support for expanding bash variables into USE --- VIDEO_CARDS="blah"
USE="video_cards_blah". Added a notice about fetching metadata so you
can see that it's happening.
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.globals*: Added
default CHUNKSIZE for binhosts. Added defaults for USE_EXPAND which is
used to expand variables into USE from the give names.

16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: add
LDFLAGS and ASFLAGS. Exports are only done if vars are already set.

--getbinpkg and --getbinpkgonly --- GRP complement. Fixes for blocking-
not-working bug
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Patch to detect
incomplete digests.
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: ebuild fetch
now checks md5sums (run from ebuild). Support for getbinpkg.
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak.py: Added more in-
memory operations support.
16 Jul 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> getbinpkg.py: Supporting
code for binary package retrieval.
*portage-2.0.48-r2 (29 Jun 2003): Fixes and Multiple Overlays
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fixed the
commands for tar.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Mode the chdir
to fix the spanky bugs down to post_emerge to fix the "can't merge an
ebuild file with an absolute path" bug.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added function
suffix_array(array,suffix) which takes an array and adds suffix to the end
of each element. Added 'cd / ;' into the getstatusoutput() calls to ldconfig.
Added a check so that portage doesn't try to add files/dir from a non-cvs
directory. Added 'manifest' target to ebuild/portage to only adjust the
manifest. Added Multiple overlay support -- Should be fairly thorough --
needs more debug though. Fixed portdbapi::new_protect_filename().
*portage-2.0.48-r2 (29 Jun 2003): Cleanups and Fixes (testing)
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Lots of
consistency cleanups. Added more files to the var/db data for future
use. Added more die conditions to failure points. Fixed/Hacked a fix
into the inherit-not-dieing problem. Set TMPDIR and TMP globally. Added
notice for multiple inheritance. Fixed inheritance problem with multiple
inheritance clobbering previous list of eclasses. Basic support for
multiple overlays added to ebuild.sh.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: SRC_URI fix for
'rm /etc/*' problem. Spanky bug: chdir to / to avoid problems when merging
from inside a builddir that gets deleted.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: Added notice
for symlinks in cfg_prot setups.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: complain if
FEATURES=cvs not set.
29 Jun 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added in
a work around for the 'USE=+useflag' users. Added support for nouserpriv
via RESTRICT. Fix the bug with ROOTs with no previous file causing a TB
from counter_tick(). Make symlinks follow config_protect just like normal
files.
10 Jun 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh, portage.py,
various commands in bin/, cnf/make.conf.mac, cnf/make.globals.mac:
Added preliminary Mac OS X/BSD support.
06 Jun 2003; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: new eclass
dependency implementation to totally isolate eclass dependency tweaks
from in-ebuild dependency tweaks. eclasses now absolutely do not touch
DEPEND and RDEPEND. Any dependencies added by eclasses are transferred
to another variable and added in to DEPEND and RDEPEND after the entire
ebuild has been processed, and after RDEPEND has optionally inherited a
value from DEPEND due to it being unset. The result of this change is
that inherit statements no longer need to be placed strategically in an
ebuild so that they are after the DEPEND and RDEPEND, and fix a host of
other eclass mis-use/side-effect bugs.
*portage-2.0.48-r1 (29 May 2003): Touchups.
29 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Quick fixes
to a couple of rare bugs. Added some quoting to $S. Removed the DISTCC
hosts variable. Moved build-info's creation around so that it actually
works for non-portage-compiled merges.
29 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Quick fix for
the files-dir-not-added lack of notification. Added in a fix for a possible
security problem with the repoman commit messages and symlink-attacks.
29 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: Added in a diff
from 'Danny' that contained a SYNC cleanup and expanded explanation. :)
29 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> output.py: Fixed the
TitleBar and unset TERM issues.
29 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added new
functions to aid in determining virtuals. cpv_all() added to dbapi -- it
displays all versions instead of just package names -- cp_all() now calls
this function to gain it's data. get_provide() and get_all_provides() added
to collect PROVIDE info from vartree packages. getallcpv() added to vartree
to reference the dbapi call. Always set ignoring errors on findname now.
Cleaned up the virtuals-trimming code. Don't mention the fixpackages script
if the user doesn't have any packages.
*portage-2.0.48 (20 May 2003): Cleanups Release.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Tiny cleanups.
Fixed the profile information in emerge -V for symlinks that have a
trailing '/' in them. Fix 'emerge -s' filesize lookups to use a new
function finddigest() from dbapi.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emergehelp.py: Updated.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: Small
fixups for pager issues. Made the nothing-to-do exit message 'happier'.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> extra-functions.sh:
Beat the debian-utils requirement out of the functions. Prefers them,
but falls back to already-existing tools otherwise.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> fixpackages: 75%
overhaul to match the new handling of update code.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> quickpkg: Understands
"--help" as an option now.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> man/*: Simple updates.
20 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: fetch()
now calculates md5sums when doing a fetchonly. finddigest() added for
finding digests -- gets overlay digests if existing. Binary packages
are only updated when explicitly requested via fixpackages as a command
or a FEATURES setting. Clear the dircache after portage initializes to
reduce memory consumption.
*portage-2.0.48_pre6 (12 Apr 2003): General cleanups and fixes.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Additions
to better handle overlay ebuilds with regard to metadata cache. aux_get
calls findname2() which returns (location,in_overlay) -- findname() is
a wrapper for findname2(). Extra debugging fixes for findname() issues.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Code
cleanups and a chgrp/chown pass to move all portage-owned files to
root ownership -- Two pass to leave specific-group and specific-owner
settings alone.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: code cleanups
and comment touchups.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emergehelp.py: Updates
for --debug, --digest, and --skipfirst.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> g-cpan.pl: Added more
arches to the KEYWORDS. Made it copy files back to distfiles.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: Removed ${D}
from the outputted filenames during stripping.
12 May 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> man/* cnf/*:
documentation updates.
*portage-2.0.48_pre5 (29 Apr 2003): Cleanups and polish.
29 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Another
typo fix.
*portage-2.0.48_pre4 (28 Apr 2003): Cleanups and polish.
28 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Quick fix
for a traceback/typo in the 'emerge -C' code.
*portage-2.0.48_pre3 (28 Apr 2003): Cleanups and polish.
28 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: listdir()
now takes care of non-existance errors instead of propagating them --- can
take EmptyOnError=1 as a param to return [] instead of None. All calls to
portage's listdir() have been updated to the new conventions. listdir()
ignores .# files from cvs now when ignorecvs=1 is set. Fixes for another
world-depleting bug. If findname() is passed a virtual, it now informs
the user to report a bug, instead of weird tracebacks. Added code in
dblink::unmerge() to remove stale virtual entries when set under trimworld.
28 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: enabled the
diff pager again.
28 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: --changelog
implies --pretend. Spelling fixes. Added --skipfirst to allow the first
package in a resume operation to be skipped over --- allows -e to rebuild
almost everything, even under weird circumstances. Located another missed
world-file-depleting bug in unmerge() calls. Included a patch to fix an
off-by-one bug in depclean.
27 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fix for
listdir() running on a non-existant dir -- returns None. Sets generated
files to the portage group -- Manifest & digests. Some coloring additions.
Handling of 'strict' features added. TEMPORARY addition of 'manifest' USE
flag so this can go mainstream now. Fixes in doebuild() to get unmerge
working again for ebuild. Debug code added to findname to help figuring
out the seemingly random tracebacks -- suspect is pkgsplit(). Unmasking
code for package.mask added in -- works just like mask, and can override
specific versions or ranges -- One per line: /etc/portage/package.unmask.
Security fix for python cPickle code -- mtimedb could create arbitrary
execution of code bug. Global update notices/info. Fixes for loops over
listdir() that depended upon raised errors to determine code flow.
27 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cvstree.py: Added in
'removed' status checks.
27 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Added in more
cvs checks. /space/cvsroot is now complained about.
27 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added in
PORTAGE_CALLER support to identify it as a 'do_update()' candidate.
27 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> dodoc: Check sizes to
prevent 0 byte files from being added.
*portage-2.0.48_pre2 (10 Apr 2003): Digests & Repoman
16 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Added CVS/Root
checks to ensure Manifests will be correct. Fixed local use-flag bug.
Commented out the no-stable code, as it can't be implemented well as is.
16 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: Fixed a
problem where files were not being stripped.
16 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added in
a call to 'make -n' when under the --debug flag.
*portage-2.0.48_pre1 (10 Apr 2003): Digests & Repoman
10 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: fix it so
that it actually strips and provides reasonable info.
10 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Added short
option for pretend. Added pretend capability to the majority of the
commit code. Bug fix for local IUSE code. Added in support for removed
cvs files.
10 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Changed
'manifest' to 'Manifest'. Removed the requirement that Manifests exist --
complain about it, but only die if 'strict' is set.
*portage-2.0.47-r15 (09 Apr 2003): New digests/manifests, touchups.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/*: Fixes for Cross-
compiling.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Quick touchups
in the category- and repository-level manifest calls.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: Added/sync'd
PORTAGE_NICENESS.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed hole
in the listdir code that occured on cache expiration in the -r14 changes.
*portage-2.0.47-r14 (09 Apr 2003):
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/*: Removed DEBUGBUILD
in favor of FEATURES/RESTRICT settings of nostrip.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild: Removed root
restriction so that digests can be made as non-root.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added niceness
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Added the
nostable/allmasked check in. Small cleanups. Move to 'manifests' instead
of enhanced digests. Added filters on $Id and $Id. Fixed commitmsg
and added short options.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cvstree.py: More features
added. pathdata() provides dir or file info. isadded() gives cvs status.
09 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: listdir()
enhancements. Debug removal. Broke up the digest creation functions to
make them a little more generic. Added manifest code into the digest
calls. Moved code in doebuild() around to allow for non-root calls for
devs and repoman. Added 'PORTAGE_CALLER' env var to prevent repeated
running of unnecessary functions.
*portage-2.0.47-r13 (02 Apr 2003): Fixes & Security -- Repoman+Digests
02 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added debug to
the dep selection code in depgraph.
02 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cvstree.py: Added new
module to handle cvs information without having to ask 'cvs status' many
times to determine file locations.
02 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Major fix ups
to ease the introduction of enhanced digests. Intelligent cvs queries
and use of the new cvstree module for information about files in the tree.
Auto-digests, auto-fetches trivial cvs changes, detects changelogs that
exist but have not been added to cvs, and detects '*' in KEYWORDS.
02 Apr 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: A typo fix or two.
prepstrip: fixup for sed's issues with '\000' (made it \001).
*portage-2.0.47-r12 (27 Mar 2003): Fixes & Security -- Repoman+Digests
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Moved all
initialization error messages to stderr.write() calls so that the output
doesn't get mixed will called data. Added a warning about not being in
the portage group. Color touchups. Digest path fixups.
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Significant
additions to the commit code to nicely handle the changes for enhanced
digests. Added --commitmsg and --commitmsgfile flags to allow easier
scripting. Added a REPOMAN environment variable to prevent portage from
running do_updates(). Added 'grouplist' which makes groupings of subparts
from a list of parts. Added do* functions to manage the recursion into
the dirs of the repository.
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak.py: Change from
lstat to stat... We're not concerned with links. Return 0 on not found.
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portageq: added new
functions: best_visible, mass_best_visible, all_best_visible.
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added '--digest'
to force recreation of digests from the command line. Fixed portage version
comparisions for the 'update portage please' notices.
27 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added an
extra rm of the 'successful' file.
26 Mar 2003; Alain Penders <alain@gentoo.org> portageq: added
mass_best_version method to help GUIs resolve best versions.
*portage-2.0.47-r11 (22 Mar 2003): Fixes & Security -- Winding up 2.0 series.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: listdir()
now is capable of recursive calls and listing only files. Used in new
additions to digestgen() and digestcheck() for ebuilds and files/* --
listdir(dir,recursive=0,filesonly=0). Digests now must contain all files
from files/ and also the ebuild -- non-archives are prefixed with '/'.
Full tbz2 fixes are now implemented... They can take a while to perform
so status thingies are provided. update_ents() provides a batch-update
as it would take rediculous amounts of time otherwise.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> : fixpackages calls
portageexit() to save the mtimedb state so it actually works. :)
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added
'xtermTitle' calls to emergelog to set the title during phases of merging.
Added more emergelog calls to provide more specific information.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> : Added two scripts to
aid portage. 'fixdbentries' takes (old, new, path) and does an inteligent
sed on all the db entries that should be changed. Used by global moves and
in the tbz2 fixes. 'fixpackages' expires the updates timestamp and reloads
portage to force do_updates() to run. Added missing Header lines.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak.py: Correct off-by-8
bug in last commit. infosize does not contain the full size... Offset
begins _after_ the marker -- Added xpaksize for complete offset from EOF.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fix for
die-on-wheel-group-missing bug. The logfiles don't cause the counter
to be incremented and now match the merged package's COUNTER value.
get_counter_tick_core(root) does not increment the counter. Sandbox is
now working in all enabled cases, instead of just usersandbox. /var/db
and binaries (assuming they are RW) are now updated to contain the proper
info --- Added a 'fixdbentries' script to perform the updates to the data,
and added a 'move_ent' function to class binarytree (not fakedbapi). Added
a 'ebuild does not exist' error for the case of ebuilds in a wrongly named
directory. Added a notice for invalid tbz2's. Removed the 'make.defaults'
missing notice :-/. Duplicated the bintree creation so that it would be
available for do_update(). Catch when 'updates' is missing from mtimedb.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> output.py: Added xterm
title bar function to set the titles... xtermTitle(mystring). Only set
if using color and terminal is [axE]term.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: Additions
courtesy of Gerk and Vladamir... Checks all portage variables. Runs
a check against invalid (but still parsable) syntax errors in names.
Checks for invalid IUSE from use.desc and use.local.desc. Checks that
licenses are valid. Checks for legal keywords with a default set or
keywords.desc, if available. 'missingvar' tests moved to aux_get() calls.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepstrip: Added test
to allow cross-compile-stripping to work properly. Rewrite the script to
be whitespace-aware and recursively process directories at level 1.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepallstrip: Removed
all code from this script and made it a call to "prepstrip $D".
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> g-cpan.pl: Add in chomps
for the portageq calls.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Allow
--fetchonly of block'd packages.
22 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Cleanups and
corrections for sandbox which has been disabled and broken for a couple
revisions now. use_{enable,with} die messages removed as they are in sub-
shells when used and won't kill the merge --- Moved to echo >&2.
21 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> xpak.py: Updates to make
the xpak code self-sustaining. Added basic documentation to the functions
and a description of the format in the comments at the top of the module.
*portage-2.0.47-r10 (13 Mar 2003): Fixes -- Winding up 2.0 series.
13 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Less strict
check of permissions when fixing permissions for userpriv -- only requires
02070 and group portage instead of 02770 for check.
13 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> g-cpan.pl: Fix to the
call to portageq.
13 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: Fix for
deleted files in a CONFIG_PROTECT situation.
13 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: fix for keepwork
and keeptemp ** MUST ENSURE THAT CLEAN CLEANS BEFORE A FULL MERGE.
12 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added more
conditions on rsync -- Proper error detection. Rsync failures will not
cause a cache regeneration. Portage no longer considers masked portages
candidates for 'An update to portage'.
*portage-2.0.47-r9 (10 Mar 2003): Fixes -- cvs-src, ebuild.sh, repoman
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.conf*: Adjusted
the LOGDIR message and change the default location to /var/log/portage.
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: One more fix
for the PORTDIR setting -- '/usr/portage' was matching '/usr/portage.cvs'.
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: Added the
capability to automerge all files in the list -- with out without prompts.
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added messages
on failure to create a depgraph -- Helps with bad DEPEND detection. Made
'emerge sync' stop if it fails, and not update cache.
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: added an
external extra_functions.sh file with extra functions for portage --
it is flag-o-matic and pieces of eutils presently. Removed libdir/incdir
from einstall(). Added 'keepwork' to keep the source code after a package
is merged. Removed the 'local' declaration of ROOT in dyn_install() --
this fixes has_version in src_install(). Fixed the sourcing of environment
so that variables are peristent across stages of a merge. Removed the
SANDBOX vars from the environment file, as that upsets SANDBOX.
10 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixes to
permission problems with cvs-src and ccache (removed nested try's). Log
counter fix -- One log per package now.
*portage-2.0.47-r8 (02 Mar 2003): Fixes -- cvs-src, ebuild.sh, repoman
02 Mar 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Fixes to eclass
errors and messages -- raise on not found. emerge --debug works for
ebuilds with syntax errors now -- needs better implimentation though,
debug=0 in params can't be used due to scope limits.
28 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: reorg ebuild.sh again
to ensure that aliases are expanded properly. Repoman now determines the
proper PORTDIR to set when loading portage to scan the cvs tree. portage.py
fixes for cvs-src permission problems with userpriv.
*portage-2.0.47-r7 (27 Feb 2003): Quick fix for eerror() problem.
*portage-2.0.47-r6 (26 Feb 2003): Drop deprecated warnings for new syntax.
26 Feb 2003; Alain Penders <alain@gentoo.org> emerge: Drop deprecated
warnings for new syntax. Don't make people switch to the new syntax
until it's agreed on by everyone.
*portage-2.0.47-r5 (26 Feb 2003): Wicked Fast, BugFree v3.1, UserPriv
26 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Update docs and help
again to drop --system and --world, and pull them from emerge's command
line. General cleanups.
26 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge/portage.py: Fixes
to the cache directory permissions -- all dirs are properly owned by group
portage now. Add CCACHE_SIZE setting so we set a value for ccache. If the
dirs are set to the wrong perms, make sure they get changed recursively.
26 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Rearraged the
code blocks so that they are easier to follow -- no more code in between
functions. All code follows function definitions now.
*portage-2.0.47-r4 (25 Feb 2003): Wicked Fast, BugFree v3, UserPriv
25 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Update docs and help
to match the deprecation of actions without '--' preceding them.
25 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Message
updates. Fix secpass for portage user. Set PORTAGE_GID for ebuild.sh to
use regardless of GID in use (wheel/portage). Only try and delete things
in PORTAGE_TMPDIR if we have perms to do it... see secpass note. Moved the
cachedir creation after settings in created so that we can use spawn instead
of system for the calls to 'chown/chmod -R'. Fix the note on make.defaults.
Fix for the 404 catcher in the fetch code.
25 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Move all actions
into '--action' form -- Notify of deprecated usages. Moved the functions
from the top of emerge down below the command line parser for readability.
Kill FEATURES=noauto if we're running emerge -- it can break things. Make
-U imply -u so people aren't confused. --debug now enables all debug
variables in portage. Fix wheel/portage group requirements messages. Get
the current portage version when doing rsync via the portage tree's files
and not the loaded cache so that it is aware of changes immediately instead
of the next run.
25 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Try to change
to good a good path at the start of the ebuild to prevent operations from
happening in places like home. After the ebuild's install phase, check to
see if any unsafe perm combo's exist and die if they do. Fix permissions
on the cachedir as we're changing them to root:portage. &> on environment
file prevented it from actually creating the file -- changed to 2>. Change
'true' to 'exit 0' to be a bit more explicit about what we're doing.
24 Feb 2003; Alain Penders <alain@gentoo.org> repoman: Added nested/sub-shell
die testing.
23 Feb 2003; Alain Penders <alain@gentoo.org>: Added bin/portageq tool to
provide access to portage internal information without using APIs that
are changing. All tools that currently access portage information by
importing portage.py and poking around in it should switch to using this
tool instead. Changed some tools in bin/ to use it, so those won't break
either.
*portage-2.0.47-r3 (17 Feb 2003): Wicked Fast, BugFree v2, UserPriv
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/: added dispatch-conf
and db-fix.pl to the bins. Looking at dispatch-conf to replace etc-update
written by Jeremy Wohl (bug 14079). db-fix.pl is a rescue tool that Blizzy
wrote up to recreate/repair counter files in the DB -- shouldn't be needed
anymore as portage fixes the counter at every load of the counter, but we
will hang on to it just in case.
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: moved the
wheelgid references to portage_gid references. Wheel is being deprecated.
Added notice to baselayout message that group portage controls everything
now. Killed the BASH_ENV settings -- moved the reference to /etc/portage/
in case it's desired in some way -- This fixes AROUND ONE HUNDRED reports
on 2.0.47-r2. Try/catch invalid tbz2's -- should fix a couple bad tarball
bugs. Make the prelink call spawn'd without sandbox. buildpkg/userpriv
fix via actionmap (Jasmin Buchert; bug 16106).
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: --upgradeonly
added from jrray's patch; added some slot handling. --deep got a short
flag 'D'. 'info' can be run by non-root. '--quiet' kills all but package
names on searches. Basic slot detection added to the pretend output so
that it doesn't always say downgrade. Ignore block list when fetching.
Can use RSYNC_EXCLUDEFROM to select a from for rsync to --exclude-from;
(Michael Sterrett; Bug 15882). 'emerge rsync' deletes the dbcachedir
before it begins updates. Catch exceptions during rsync cache regen.
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: General fixes
to the spelling of things. 'cd $PORT_TMPDIR' corrected to the actual vars
name. Stripping distcc from PATH if it is there before portage sets it.
Same with ccache. If we try to compile with out unpacking, complain. Make
sure to chown files to user portage.
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: CFLAGS notes,
pentium4 breaks things. Added more descriptions for FEATURES. Added
RSYNC_EXCLUDEFROM description.
22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Updates to the
copyright headers.
*portage-2.0.47-r2 (17 Feb 2003): Wicked Fast, BugFree, UserPriv
18 Feb 2003; Alain Penders <alain@gentoo.org> portage-2.0.47-r2.ebuild:
If $PORTAGE_TEST is set, skip the beeps/delay messages. Needed to make
the regression test scripts bearable :-)
17 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed the
depcache code once again -- ebuild and cache were never set to the same
mtimes. Removed last os.system() call.
17 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> repoman: catdir fix.
Added 'emerge-webrsync' from gentoolkit so users can use snapshots on
initial installs.
17 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emergehelp.py: Updated
it to the current calls and conventions. Added comments about etc-update
and emerge-webrsync.
17 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Changed the
search code around to use compiled re's instead of .lower() searches.
Trivial touchups in spacing. Only write worldfile if not --pretend. Fix
losing-packages-to-be-merged during merge bug. Allow options to change
in a --resume call so that --buildpkg and such may be added.
17 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added a
PREROOTPATH to allow special paths to be added prior to root and ebuild's
required pathes. ${S} is now generated prior to sourcing an ebuild so
that it is available in the ebuild at source-time, as opposed to in the
phases.
*portage-2.0.47-r1 (16 Feb 2003): Wicked Fast + UserPriv
16 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Changed a
few os.system calls to spawn calls. Added userpriv in features check to
spawn. HOME is now placed in BUILD_PREFIX/homedir when userpriv is enabled.
Valid command for doebuild() moved to the top of the function. Reorganized
the directory creation code in doebuild(). HOME is cleaned for every merge
if in userpriv. LOG_COUNTER fix for the per-ebuild logs -- Only one value
is used per $PF now.
16 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Adjusted options
to remove --autoclean and make it on-by-default unless killed in FEATURES
with 'noclean'. Removed debug for --resume. Added RSYNC_TIMEOUT as some
dialup and other users are experiencing problems with rsync never finishing
a connection. Added check at the end of an rsync to notify the user when
a new version of portage is available. Added --pretend capability/fix to
the --resume code. No resume data and a --resume is no longer a failure.
16 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Updates to
logic of ${T}/successful handling to allow proper cleaning. dyn_clean()
will do a recursive dir removal after cleaning specific files. Recursive
chown removed. CCACHE_DIR handled in portage.py now. Removed a few comments
and unnecessary checks.
16 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: added comments
on FEATURES=noclean,noauto,userpriv,usersandbox
15 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Alain changed
the .config() call in the search class to a .settings[] -- Speedup.
14 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added
resume to mtimedbkeys.
14 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: --columns
flag to support column output in --pretend. --resume support added
to restart portage with the package list with which it stopped -- data
is stored in mtimedb. Added '--verbose' to 'emerge info' to display
all variables in settings.
13 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fix to
distcc and ccache to prevent them from calling themselves if they
catch themselves in the path -- double path problem.
13 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixes to
the aux_get() code for metacache updates to eclass deps. Debug output
removal.
13 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: More fixes
to the calls to aux_get() for metacache code. Rearranged the option and
action arrays. Added --nospinner flag.
13 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Reorg of flags.
Addition of --noconfmem to prevent portage from yanking already-merged
config files. Extra message in --version about missing gcc and sourcing
/etc/profile to get it. Yanked the majority of the rsync cachedb update
code -- Moved it to aux_get.
13 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Typo fixes.
aux_get() now has a metacachedb param for using metadata cache over the
initial call to doebuild() -- Should speed up rsync users regen time.
Added support for --noconfmem via settings["NOCONFMEM"] in treewalk().
Added sys.exit(1) on failure to move files during merge. Comment
realignment.
11 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fix the
depcache code by adding in a missing stat call after regeneration.
Call portageexit() in exithandler() so that mtimedb gets written out
on cancelled runs. Add in --quiet option. Currently only kills the
processing messages on emerge regen.
11 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fix the
eclass code to remove the double inherits cause by eclasses managing
that on their own.
*portage-2.0.46-r12 (07 Feb 2003): Fixups
07 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Move
logdir check/generation code so that it's created before 'clean'. Fix
the usemask/archkeys bug and a related bug with the var enabled. Fix
to movefile() code to ensure symlinks are handled properly.
07 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Make per-
ebuild logs use the counter to get a chronological list instead of a
timestamp based one.
07 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: If a package
is requested to be updated but is not merged, still add it to world.
07 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *: Update to help.
Mostly comments on --verbose. Clarification on make.conf* mirrorselect.
*portage-2.0.46-r11 (04 Feb 2003): Fixups
04 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: distcc
fixups along with ccache fixups from the bug 13897 effort. Added more
varaibles to the build data output. Allow CC/CXX to be set if they are
not set in environment.
04 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Removed an
unnecessary call to os.unlink() in movefile that resulted in it failing
when moving files across devices. HTML 404 catcher -- if the distfile is
a reasonable size, and it's got <title>.*(not found|404).*</title> in it
it will be deleted and the next mirror persued.
*portage-2.0.46-r10 (03 Feb 2003): Feature/Function Cleanups
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added
quotes to fallback checksum code to ensure it works on space-containing
filenames. Error message added in writedict. Worldfile-depleeting bug
fixed -- 'emerge -e world'+AUTOCLEAN would cause every package in world
to be removed from the worldfile to be removed.
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.conf: updated the
commentary about AUTOCLEAN.
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> etc-update: Added in
automerge functionality for trivial changes. Comments and whitespace
are just merged without asking when it's enabled.
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: redundant cmd
line flags warning. Show enabled/disabled USE flags on -vp (Masatomo
Nakano). Missing changelog fix for --changelog. Added an rsync timeout
of 60 seconds and a message on fail due to timeout.
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: CC/CXX fix
to override profile.env settings. FEATURES=distcc support to get past
profile.env's CC settings/lockdown. If CBUILD is defined, it is appended
to econf's output in a --build= statement. Added .unpacked marker to
the unpack code to ensure a proper unpack phase.
01 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Adjusted
the arch.list code to be a general masking setup. /etc/make.profile/
and /etc/portage/ have use.mask files that are concatenated. On fetch,
if downloader reports failure, then check that filesize<digestfilesize
and continue onto the next mirror before dying.
27 Jan 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh/portage.py:
eclass fixups for newdepend issues where newdepend operates on RDEPEND
prior to it being set to default by ebuild.sh. Repoman fix for multi-
arch failures by excluding /usr/portage/profiles/arch.list entries from
consideration, excluding $ARCH.

Added from bug 3450 -- Creates and merges perl module ebuilds on-the-fly
from cpan and merges them.
08 Jan 2003; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf.ppc:
updated make.conf.ppc to remove G3 options for CFLAGS and other
small tweaks
*portage-2.0.47 (06 Jan 2003): UserPriv
06 Jan 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:

back into the make.conf* files so that users are aware that they need to
specify ibiblio. Killed the linefeeds in the sparc conf.
06 Jan 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: options and
actions fixup. Added new short options and long options. --buildpkgonly
now works and restricts the process to deplists of zero depth. Updated
the help for portage, and created a seperate shorthelp function with
the terse, options-only, versions of the regular help. Fixed the env_update
call after --fetchonly runs.
06 Jan 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
touchups to the user priv and logging code to kill the invalid user
messages when portage:portage doesn't exist on the system.

Tokenizer fixup courtasy of Evgeny Roubinchtein. unalias -a in ebuild.sh.
Moved the help() to emergehelp.py. prepallman fixup for missed symlinks.
More info provided for portage-user-missing message. FEATURES=sandboxuser

exception should actually be caught now.
*portage-2.0.47_pre1 (21 Dec 2002): Feature: userpriv compiles
21 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *:
ebuild.sh: portage user setup. dyn_setup is always run before calls to
unpack,compile,install. emerge: infodirs cleanup, traceback on invalid
dir fix. Proper regen on info change. portage.py: uid/gid discovery and
check code. PRELINK_PATH and PRELINK_PATH_MASK added and renamed. Made

17 Dec 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> bin/ebuild.sh:
Regenerate /lib/cpp and /usr/bin/cc in pkg_setup if they are not
files to ease the broken pkg_postrm() some gcc have.

fixups. Prelink code.
15 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/f*: Made them
loop over multiple files instead of just doing one.
13 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge/portage.py:
Added disabled prelink code. Needs a little more work. Gave portage the
ability to restart on upgrades to the portage version. Ebuilds for prior
versions will intentionally die on upgrade. USE=build disables it so
bootstrap isn't affected.

Added support for PDEPEND. Rewrote some dep handling variables for
readability and ease of use.
*portage-2.0.45-r3 (09 Dec 2002): Touchups.
09 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fixed
use_enable() and use_with() so that they actually work -- also don't
have to specify 2nd parameter, 1st is assumed.
09 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Added previous
version/downgrade messages to --pretend. Extra message to notify of dep
calculation failure as bad deps can exit portage without error.
09 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Attempt
at fixing the sandbox-crashes-missing-HOME bug. Added a try/catch around
the virts/'del x' code to prevent tracebacks on boxes without a virtuals
file.
06 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed 'xfrom'
variable-used-before-assignment message on masked ebuilds.
06 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Disabled
writes to DBs when sandbox is enabled.
03 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed a
nice bug where python was writing 'L' at the end of long() types for

02 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py, output.py:
Added several color options and functions to output.py. 'DO NOT EDIT'
notices added to .env generated profile settings files. Touchups and
nofetch() call for restricted fetches. Moved some file IO code for
SLOTs into a try/catch. { mtimedb fixups. Eclass aux_get() error fix.
aux_get() error fix via try/catch with magically-missing ebuild when
doing stat on it. Enabled full eclass()/inherit code. Added code to
flushmtimedb() entries by key name. } <-- aux_get() fixups. Made
starttime into a long... time.time() is apparently overflowing int().
02 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/*:
prep*: Fixed missed man pages and corrected loops to be fairly complete
in the included files. quickpkg: Loop to do each in $@ (Peter Sharp).
02 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Yank '++' from searches and make it '\+\+' so that it works. Reformated
'all ebuilds are masked' message to be a little more obvious. env_update()
AFTER autoclean... not in autoclean -- Fixes ldconfig issues. Typo fixes.
02 Dec 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
Added has(), general use()-like function -- 'has this_thing $VAR' returns
shell true or false. Added has_version(), portage call to determine if
a specified DEPEND-atom is installed -- 'has_version ">=mozilla-1.2"'
returns shell true or false. Added best_version(), portage call to
get the best/most-recently-merged version of a DEPEND-atom statement --
'best_version ">=mozilla-1.0"' prints a string. pkg_nofetch() displays
SRC_URIs by default on RESTRICT -- Can be redefined to display custom
messages. die() on unpack() failure added. Courtasy of SpanKY: Added
use_with() and use_enable() for --with-thing and --enable-thing.
'use_with gd libgd' would print --with-libgd if gd was in USE and
--without-libgd if not.
19 Nov 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> cnf/etc-update.conf:
Add 'menu' config item and note about it needing dev-utils/dialog, as
a lot of users do not know about this nifty feature.
14 Nov 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> man/emerge.1:
Cleaned up the more recent edits to the man page to more closely
match the previous format, fix various typos, and so on. Expanded
the REPORTING BUGS section, and made the PACKAGE MASKING part of the
NOTES a stand-alone section.
*portage-2.0.44 (11 Nov 2002): bug fixes and 1.2 rescue/install setup
11 Nov 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> *:
bin/*: fixes for spaces-in-filename issues, lots of quotes added. conf/*:
touched up comments and warning. Added RSYNC_RETRIES. ebuild.sh: exit now
reports the failing ebuild's $CATEGORY/$PF. Added EXTRA_ECONF to econf().
emake: added EXTRA_EMAKE. emerge: RSYNC_RETRIES curtasy of Christopher
Sharp. Random comment fixes. portage.py: Random touchups. KV extraction
fixup for new ROOTs. ARCH missing in profile fix. Fix for packages/All
missing dir traceback. INFOPATH/INFODIR fix. Added INFOPATH to specials.

Fix for missing-glibc-bug in --version.
08 Nov 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Fix for cfgdictfile traceback when ROOT != '/'. Fix for missing kernel
headers -- checks usr/src/linux, then /usr/include, then if merging
from sys-kernel ignore error.
07 Nov 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Fix (part 2) for the USE="-*" arch-missing problem.
03 Nov 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
eclass() function uses a caching and cPickle storing method to determine
currency of eclass-derived depcache entries. All previous methods are
already removed. eclass_save() is called via store() now. Stripped some
cruft from aux_get(). Error message touchups.
03 Nov 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
A couple message touchups.
29 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Moved the autoclean section under the --pretend check so it doesn't flip
out when running '-f'. Preliminary support for binary-only methods.
--usepkgonly (implies --usepkg) to force errors is binaries don't exist.
27 Oct 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> new*: changed "&&" to "||"
to provide even better protection against mis-use of these commands.
*portage-2.0.43 (27 Oct 2002): Bug fix release
27 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
AUTOCLEAN="yes" on by default. Added in a clean phase after the merge
phase so clashing library versions do not remain installed when ldconfig
is run. This should close up the symlinks-being-removed bugs.
27 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*:
Miscelaneous typo fixes. Added PORTDIR_OVERLAY description in make.conf.
26 Oct 2002; J Robert Ray <jrray@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Don't act like the download failed if after successfully downloading
a file its size doesn't match the file size in the digest. Treat
this as a mismatched digest condition instead.
26 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Reversed the defaults on env_update() so it does a full ldconfig instead
of a non-symlink ldconfig. Fixed the typo in the 'invalid conf' notices.
*portage-2.0.42 (24 Oct 2002): Bug fix release
24 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.defaults.5:
Removed this file. It is horribly out of date and completely
wrong to boot. Users shouldn't be modifying the 3 lines in this file
anyway. They are obvious if you understand conf and defaults.
24 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Added missing return statements to select_dep() that caused unmet packages
to be ignored. Touchups to 'emerge info' and 'emerge --version' output.
Added --delete to --delete-after so that it actually deletes in rsync.
24 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Warning touchups. Replaced constants (9) to index("INHERITED").
23 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/new*:
Fix for "running as a root user" bug... code does 'rm -rf /' if
variables aren't defined in environment... That's a bad thing.
23 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Possible fix for the aux_get() issues and IUSE.
22 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
noauto got lost in some weird conflicts of .38, added it back.
22 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Primitive logging via emergelog(). countdown(N,str) function does N second
countdowns of the action 'str'. Error messages on dependency traceback
via try/except on select_dep(). Removed the 'unavailable' warning. Message
updates. Added logging of basic actions to /var/log/emerge.log. Added
package/to-go counter. 'emerge info' displays a number of useful variables
that is good for bug reports.
22 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> prepallstrip:
Bug 9508, fix for MSB architectures strip. Previous check assumed only
LSB objects could/should be stripped. (*LSB -> *SB) [Joky@#gentoo-sparc]
*portage-2.0.41 (20 Oct 2002): Bug fix release
20 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
stickies=[] lists the variables that will be kept/used as sticky vars,
not yet implimented. Fixed several relative symlink bugs by adding
abssymlink() to portage to determine real/absolute targets. env_update()
modified to fix bug 9308 symlinks bug. Bug 8348, request for error messages
instead of tracebacks/dies on parse errors, now caught on a per file basis
for system config files, includes descriptive messages. Fix for missing
profile traceback in new prepend'd-arch code. Typo fixes in symlink code.
DISABLED 'KEYWORD="" == available' code, DEFAULT IS MASKED NOW. Major
update to masking code, CONFIG_PROTECT can be layered with _MASKs, and
update_protect() now sets the self.protect* variables. Condensed and
reordered the unmerge code, now checks existance, cfgprotect, then mtimes.
20 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Bug 8767: Added 'buildpkg' to FEATURES to specify always-buildpkg.
Updated the --version output to display profile and gcc version.
Bug 8083: Eliminate spinner when terminal is not a tty. Bug 7688:
fixed search vs. searchdesc differences by adding 'cat/pack' split.
Bug 9308: Symlinks were being killed by ldconfig, fixed by changing
how/when ldconfig was allowed to set symlinks. rsync command touchups,
--delete-after so that a failed rsync won't leave a user
without/with-few packages in portage. More warnings to depclean.
20 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
Added die to gzip in unpack()
20 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.conf*:
Added in useful variables and descriptions+warnings of their uses.
20 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.globals*:
Added in large "do not edit" message.
16 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Fixed an mtimes issue. --update on a package might yank non-cfgprot
files during the clean-phase because they didn't have mtimes updated.
15 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Added 'IUSE' to the auxdbkey list. Fixed random aux_get() errors
caused by random empty files in the dep cache.
15 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh
Actually committed the --host portion of econf.
15 Oct 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py, missingos.c:
Remove testsandbox.sh, and comment code in portage.py that still
used it to no real use. Add another '\' to the 'missingos_mknod__doc__'
string in src/python-missingos/missingos.c to fix failure with gcc-3.3.
*portage-2.0.40 (13 Sep 2002): Bug fix release
15 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge:
emerge depclean -- Removes all packages that are not explicitly or
dependency merged.
15 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
depend now prints IUSE. Doesn't do anything with it yet.
unpack() -- unzip silently overwrites files ().
econf() -- now specifies '--host=${CHOST}'
15 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make.globals:
Touch ups + warning.
15 Oct 2002; Brandon Low <lostlogic@gentoo.org> etc-update:
Make etc-update find all the same CONFIG_PROTECT files as portage
by importing it's settings from portage.
*portage-2.0.39 (13 Sep 2002): Bug fix release
13 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Bug 5926 -- If the fetchonly AND pretend flags are specified, then
portage should give a list of all the SRC_URIs so that they can be
downloaded or sent into another app. Made sandbox display name in
'ps' as '[$PF] sandbox'.
13 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Bug 5926 -- See portage.py for today. (emerge -pf)
Typo fixes.
13 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
Added -q to unzip to make it quiet like the others.
Bug 6033 -- Fix for infinate loop in eclasses in portage overlay.
12 Oct 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fix for
doebuild() so that our rsync mirror will contain full digests and not just
partial digests for x86.
12 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Added --progress to rsync. This puts the file progress meters
back on. Users have requested this, and it's not detrimental.
Just creates a lot of output, as the man page says: "It gives
bored users something to look at."
12 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Bug 6361 -- Added checking on directories to ensure that we can
write to them before we try and traceback. Also added pieces to
functions so that return conditions are propagated back to emerge
so that it actually dies on errors. Message on condition details
restart process.
11 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> make*globals:
Removed the tomcat configs from CONFIG_PROTECT
11 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> doman:

Added not-an-man-page message.
11 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> dohtml:
Bug 8208 -- Added 'js' to the include list, and added '-A' as an
append flag. '-a' was a filter-down-to.
11 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Bug 8964 -- Fix for read-only traceback in digestgen().
Bug 8949 -- Fix for read-only traceback in doebuild()
Bug 8284 -- Prepend ARCH _after_ use order processing. Prevents -*
from killing the ARCH flag. Bug 7596 -- Set an mtime of 0 into
CONTENTS if the file already exists on the FS. Allows the entry
to be in the CONTENTS file. Condensed the protect/protect-mask
code into one function in class dblink. Revised code to allow
multi-level protects and masks.
10 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge:
Bug 8552 -- typo fixes
10 Oct 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf.ppc :
Fixed type in reccomended CFLAGS for generic ppc (was 02, corrected
to O2)
09 Oct 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Fixed a bug where files less than 2 characters in /etc/env.d
weren't checked correctly, and tracebacked env_update()
07 Oct 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
Also set $TMP, as MDK among distros sets this, and it causes
breakage during bootstrap. This should close bug #8101.
07 Oct 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> man/ebuild.5 :
Updated the man page to include missing functions in portage
05 Oct 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf cnf/make.conf.ppc:
Fixed typo (missing "/") in make.conf and make.conf.ppc, bug #7944
28 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: remove
deprecated "ld.so" from newdepend.
*portage-2.0.38 (25 Sep 2002): Bug fix release
25 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: now "emerge world"
and "emerge system" don't replace packages. This closes bug #8282.
21 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage-2.0.38.ebuild:
Added additional perm check for /var/cache/edb/dep dirs and fixed perm
settings in the ebuild's pkg_postinst(); this should close bug #7719.
21 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added
carpaski's patch to add PF to the sandbox's argv[0], closing bug #8141.
19 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: tweaked emerge so
that "--pretend" displays don't show "N" all the time.
19 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: tweaked help to
not list deprecated options.
25 Sep 2002; Maik Schreiber <blizzy@gentoo.org> cnf/make.globals,
cnf/make.globals.ppc: Added /opt/jakarta/tomcat/conf to CONFIG_PROTECT. Note
by drobbins: this will be removed soon when this gets moved to an /etc/env.d
file in the tomcat package.
*portage-2.0.37 (19 Sep 2002): Gentoo Linux 1.4_rc1 version
10 Sep 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf.ppc : Backed down
CFLAGS from -O3 to -O2 on ppc as -O3 has proven to be unreliable on all
PowerPC-based machines
09 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: new parameterized
create() engine, security pass fixes ("emerge" as non-root doesn't print
"root access required" but shows help instead), emerge --pretend output fixes
("to /" lines are dropped and only displayed if installation root != "/".)
New (and currently unofficial and undocumented) "--deep" and "--selective"
options that correspond to their respective create() parameters. Using
"--deep" will enable "deep emerging" -- updating all deps even if the parent
doesn't need updating. The new parametrized create() is also much cleaner
than the previous incarnation.
09 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: os.chdir() ->
chdir() fix, enhanced fetch() digest corruption handling.
06 Sep 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.globals.ppc :
Updated make.globals.ppc to reflect new CFLAGS for 1.4 release
*portage-2.0.36 (04 Sep 2002): Gentoo Linux 1.4_rc1 version
04 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: "--onlydeps" was
mostly broken since the most recent emerge code restructure. Now fixed,
closing bug #7442.
04 Sep 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> etc-update.conf: added
missing etc-update config file.
04 Sep 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: removed error
detection based on return value for pkg_preinst() and friends when called
from merge() and unmerge(), since the value can be unreliable due to the &&
shell construct, depmod -a returning a non-zero value, etc. Also fixed
env_update() to treat CONFIG_PROTECT and CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK correctly.
*portage-2.0.35 (03 Sep 2002)
03 Sep 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> etc-update,
man/etc-update.1: new program for updating config files.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: upgraded
inherit() to support $PORTDIR_OVERLAY, closing bug #6033.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: calls to "cvs" now
use "-z3" compression option, closing bug #5982.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: symlinks to
.tbz2's in the $PKGDIR/All directory (from $PKGDIR/$CATEGORY) are now
relative, closing bug #6881.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: einstall now
sees "GNUmakefile", closing bug #4895.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: typo fixes,
closing bug #7263.
03 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: /var/tmp
creation now works even if /tmp already exists, closing bug #7376.
02 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed a logic error
that resulted in non-root emerge failure. This closes bug #7389.
*portage-2.0.34 (01 Sep 2002)
01 Sep 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py, ebuild.sh:
Azarah's ebuildsh() removed, various other little fixes like pkg_preinst and
friends not dying on non-zero return codes.
01 Sep 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: add a custom
version of the esyslog() function to fix the "Red Star" bug if no logger is
running.
*portage-2.0.33_p1 (30 Aug 2002): urgent fix
31 Aug 2002; Dan Armak <danarmak@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: comment out the if
clause that only executed inherit() conditional on $PORTAGE_RESTORE_ENV. It
didn't work and broke portage 2.0.33 as far as inheriting ebuilds goes.
*portage-2.0.33 (30 Aug 2002)
30 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> : some additional clean-ups
for the make.conf(.ppc) files.
30 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: emerge search would
die when aux_get() raised a KeyError; we now catch and handle this exception.
This closes bug #7280.
29 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed typo in
move_ent() code that messed up moving packages into previously non-existant
category directories in /var/db/pkg.
30 Aug 2002; Mark Guertin <gerk@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf.ppc : Updated
cnf/make.conf.ppc with new CFLAGS for 1.4 release
*portage-2.0.32 (29 Aug 2002)
29 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: favorites weren't
working since 2.0.30; they're working again now. This closes bug #7225.
29 Aug 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Added a small
blurb regarding what to do when emerge --update [world|system] fails because
of new features such as || and ?. Hopefully this will assuage the fairly
common questions regarding this.
*portage-2.0.31 (29 Aug 2002)
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed a config
file protection logic bug detected and identified by Azarah. It basically
broke most config file updates and has been broken for around six months.
Very surprised no one had encountered this issue before.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: improved error
messages when an unsatisfiable dependency is encountered. Now lets you know
if there are masked packages that would satisfy the dep.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: emerging .tbz2
packages and .ebuilds by name now works; this was broken in 2.0.30.
*portage-2.0.30 (28 Aug 2002)
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: rewrote
gettimeval() as cpv_counter() and updated it to handle corrupt COUNTER files,
closing bug #6763.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: "emerge search" now
displays information for masked packages if possible, closing bug #6823.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed an old gbevin
bug where "emerge search" wouldn't show packages whose version string was
only one character long, ie. "foo-3". This closes bug #6800.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: added a missing
call to flatten() in dep_check(), allowing recursive sublists in dependencies
and SRC_URI variables to work; this closes bugs #7104, #7116, #7122.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> doman: fixed some typos,
closing bug #7152.
28 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: major
work to emerge: reworked the internal code organization to make depgraph code
easier to understand; unified two code paths so that ebuild/.tbz2 choices
when "--usepkg" should now be eternally consistent; tweaked portage.py so
that dep_expand()'s dbapi argument is optional. In the process of all this,
isolated and fixed bug #4508.
27 Aug 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py: if the dep
cache is stale, it is possible that aux_get() will call doebuild(depend) to
regenerate it again. This call will cause $T to be set to "", which will
break anything that needs $T to be set to a writable location inside the
sandbox, so we need to set $T to a valid value again.
27 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: improved error
handling/detection of bad pkgsplit() and catpkgsplit() calls; should close
bug #6803, #6853.
26 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fix so that "emerge
prune rsync" doesn't complain that you are trying to rsync and prune at the
same time. This closes bug #6785.
26 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> doman fixes; should work
for pre-gzipped man-pages and man-pages with multiple "."s in their name.
Closes bugs #6770, #6917
25 Aug 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed an
indentation problem of the 'else:' at line 1304.
20 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: removed stray
"DEBUG:" output, closing bug #6732.
*portage-2.0.29 (18 Aug 2002)
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py,
ebuild.sh: making some effort to make output cleaner and less cluttered,
particularly with error handling.
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: updated so that
"emerge --inject foo-1.0" fails instead of injecting "null/foo-1.0"; fixed
error in help; "emerge --inject" and "emerge" with no specified files or
package classes prints out a small warning and exits. Closes bug #6353.
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: movefile()
didn't like bind mounts due to a peculiar quality -- according to their
ST_DEV stat() information, they are on the same filesystem, so rename()
should work, but it doesn't. We now fall back to copy if rename() doesn't
work. Closes bug #6468.
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: made significant
enhancements and fixes to ebuild.sh's error-handling code. Errors in
src_unpack(), src_compile(), src_install() and others should now be correctly
detected. Also downgraded our use() function since we are not implementing
extended USE functionality. Closes bug #6393.
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: portdb's
cp_all() now skips "CVS" directories, closing bug #6662.
18 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: aux_get():
exception handler to print informative message when encountering wacky cache
entries that we just can't fix (for some reason.)
17 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: removed
deprecated "ld.so" dependency from Dan Armak's newdepend() function.
17 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: doebuild()
running in "depend" mode will set $T to "" to prevent a parent's $T from
being inherited; this is important when we run custom portage code from
inside an ebuild (such as pkg_postinst)... it allows dep caching to not
break. Closes bug #6484.
*portage-2.0.28 (17 Aug 2002)
16 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: return errors when
two actions like "world" and "system" are specified on the command-line, or
when "system" or "world" are combined with package names. Closes bug #6492.
16 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: bad string was
causing pkg_prerm() and pkg_postrm() to not be called; now fixed. This
closes bug #6493.
16 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: now calls
env-update() after an unmerge() run (to fix library paths, links, etc.)
Closes bug #6511.
16 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> doman: now handles already-
gzipped man pages correctly, closing bug #6544.
16 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed a bug where a
dep specified on the command-line with --usepkg would use an old package if
it happened to match the dep. Now, it will use the ebuild instead, just like
how deps of deps are treated.
*portage-2.0.27 (06 Aug 2002)
07 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: removed some
beta extended USE functionality to speed up regenerate(); as we are likely
not going to need extended USE for a good while.
07 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: ebuild.sh now
supports "config" (pkg_config) again.
06 Aug 2002; Dan Armak <danarmak@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: change debug-print()
to exit if $T is not defined, i.e. if emerge is running in dependency
detection mode and isn't actually emerging everything. This fixes bug #4932
(the "eclass-debug.log is created in /" problem).
06 Aug 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fixed a
case-check problem that prevented tar.Z from being un-tar'd. This closes bug
#6126.
06 Aug 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py, ebuild.sh:
Remove "setup" from 'sandboxactive' in portage.py, as we are not running
pkg_setup() in a sandbox anymore. Move the restoring of the old env code
to be the first thing in ebuild.sh, just to ensure we dont mess anything
up when greping/awking during saving it.
*portage-2.0.26 (06 Aug 2002)
06 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: on unmerge,
entries are now removed from the world file if 1) the dependency refers to
the cat/pkg being unmerged, and 2) the dependency matches the current version
being unmerged, and 3) unmerging this package will leave no other packages on
this system that will match this world entry. This closes bug #3409.
06 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: new global
update support. You can now add an entry to a file in
/usr/portage/profiles/updates/, something like "move x11-base/xfree
x11-base/xfree86". Portage will then update the /var/db/pkg db on user's
boxes so that any xfree packages are renamed to xfree86; it will also update
the world and virtuals files appropriately. We are naming the update files
"3Q-2002", etc. -- for third quarter in 2002. This way, we don't bog
Portage down by having it run through all our directives. It will only look
at update files whose mtimes have changed. Closes bug #4753, #5463,
06 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: tweaked Azarah's
environment-saving patch to not be enabled when $T is not defined -- this
closes bug #6070 and should speed up dep calculations too. Also tweaked
ebuild.sh so that pkg_setup() is run *outside* of the sandbox. This is
important because piping stuff around tends to require temp files to be
created; pkg_setup() being in the sandbox prevents this from happening.
06 Aug 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh : Unset
esave_ebuild_env in esave_ebuild_env(), otherwise the sourced copy messes
saving of the environment.
05 Aug 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Updated the man
page to match the current version of 2.0.25.
05 Aug 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Updated the man
page to match the current version of 2.0.25.
*portage-2.0.25 (05 Aug 2002)
05 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> src/sandbox/Makefile:
removed -march=i386 added in Azarah's patch; breaks things for PPC, Sparc.
05 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: logic error fix for
description searching, closing bug #6031.
*portage-2.0.24 (04 Aug 2002)
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> output.py, emerge: rewrote
our output.py module (it was weird) and tweaked emerge so that colorization
will be disabled if NOCOLOR is set to "yes" or "true" *or* if sys.stdout isn't
a tty. This means that if you pipe things to "less", colorization will get
automatically disabled. Yay! This closes bug #5714,
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: default
src_compile now properly uses "die" instead of "return 1." This closes bug
#2981.
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: "=foo/bar-1.0*"
now matches "foo/bar-1.0_{alpha|beta|pre|rc}{int}" but not
"foo/bar-1.1_{alpha_beta_pre_rc}{int}". This closes bug #5874; gcc-3.2_pre
is now considered a "3.2" rather than a very late "3.1" when doing "*"
matching.
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Applied
carpaski's patch to allow "unpack" to also handle regular .gz or .bz2 files;
in which case the unpacked files are placed directly in ${WORKDIR}. Closing
bug #5867.
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: tweaked
exithandler() to only do its sandbox clean-up if we happen to be the root
user. Closes bug #5859.
04 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: search now lists
masked packages correctly. Closes bug #5854 (pending QA verification.)
04 Aug 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@lsu.edu> emerge.1: The emerge man page
now reflects the fact that emerge sync|rsync always does a --clean now. Also
bumped the release number to 2.0.23.
03 Aug 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge.sh,
sandbox.c libsandbox.c: Updated sandbox.c and libsandbox.c to use an internal
env variable, $SANDBOX_ACTIVE to determine if sandbox should really be active
or not. With it only checking $SANDBOX_ON, some instances NOT running in a
sandbox, but that set SANDBOX_ON while an actual sandbox was running, caused
the sandbox to activate for this process. Added in support for a more phased
calls to ebuild.sh again. This is this time done with support to save the
current environment of ebuild.sh to the next call that should handle problems
with pkg_setup() setting env variables. Closes bugs #5853, #5817, #5950.
*portage-2.0.23 (01 Aug 2002)
01 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py:
${ROOT}var/cache/edb and friends will get created if they don't exist,
closing bug #5813.
01 Aug 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: rewrote the emerge
search code, making it fully API-compliant and much more streamlined and
compact. This rewrite should fix the problem where emerge search doesn't
support Portage overlays (bug #5783.)
31 Jul 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Documented the
fact that emerge clean does not remove unslotted ebuilds. Bumped the man
page revision number to 2.0.22.
*portage-2.0.22 (29 Jul 2002)
29 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fetch() didn't
handle resuming downloads properly when the first attempt aborted
prematurely. The fall back to the alternate location would not resume the
download. This should now be fixed. Closes bug #5655.
29 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, ebuild.sh: I
had some code in spawn() from one of Azarah's patches that I forgot to
remove; it caused the sandbox to be disabled all the time. I removed this
code, and then I tweaked ebuild.sh so that the sandbox runs in a "deny by
default" configuration. Before, you could add lines to the main ebuild
(outside of a function) and it would bypass the sandbox; no more. Closes
bugs #5740, #5744.
29 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: --help and
--version now work for non-root users as they should. --clean has been
deprecated. This closes bug #5658.
*portage-2.0.21 (28 Jul 2002)
28 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: Added
beta "Portage tree overlay" support. By setting PORTDIR_OVERLAY to point to
a local directory tree, you can cause Portage to look for ebuilds in
PORTDIR_OVERLAY first before consulting the regular PORTDIR. Using this
feature, it's possible to have your PORTDIR set up to rsync but still be able
to have locally-created ebuilds in your PORTDIR_OVERLAY tree. For example,
you would place your ebuild in PORTDIR_OVERLAY/sys-apps/foo/.
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: another
dep_opconvert() USE-handling bug-fix. Working OK for Azarah now.
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: small logic
error fix in dep_opconvert() to fix up USE handling.
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: security modes now
work correctly; root access now required for merging. The new security pass
code was missing a check that is now present.
*portage-2.0.20 (27 Jul 2002)
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge,
repoman: Rewrote a good deal of our dependency-checking code, including all
of dep_opconvert(). Results? repoman will now auto-enable all USE variables
(even ! use variables will get enabled) resulting in thorough checks of all
specified dependencies. DEPEND="foo? bar : oni" and DEPEND="foo? ( bar oni )
: ( meep barf )" now works correctly. DEPEND="|| ( foo bar oni )" now works
correctly and will try to satisfy "foo" (the first package) if none are
installed. DEPEND="!foo? ( bar )" now works correctly; it was not working
before. This should generally mean that our dependency system is now working
as expected.
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: changed
counter_tick() method so that bulk of code is in the counter_tick_code()
helper function; then created a new method for fakedbapi that calls
counter_tick(). This fixes "--emptytree" issues with emerge, since emerge
still expects counter_tick() to exist as a method.
27 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: removed
a DEBUG: print and a stray "raise IndexError" that I used for debugging.
*portage-2.0.19 (26 Jul 2002)
26 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Portage is now
eclass-friendly when it comes to regenerating cache entries. This closes bug
#4843.
26 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: Closed
bug #5524. Packages "emerge inject"ed will no longer get auto-cleaned
indiscriminantly. Injected packages now have an official COUNTER so that
emerge clean doesn't get confused and schedule the package for removal. Also
modularized and improved the counter-handling functions and changed the
counter update method so that systems with XFS filesystems that die
unexpectedly will no longer get corrupted COUNTER files. This should solve
the an entire class of "my counter is corrupt" issues for XFS users.
26 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: added exception
handler to getcontents() so that it will gracefully ignore (with a warning)
corrupt CONTENTS file lines. This closes bug #5464.
26 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed a single-line
indentation error that resulted in "emerge clean" ignoring some files. This
closes bug #5597,#4364.
25 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: --noreplace is now
off by default and works again; --onlydeps appears to be working again; and
merge() will merge things as specified in display(), which was not the case
before (I rolled 2.0.18 before fixing a few things I forgot about)
*portage-2.0.18 (25 Jul 2002)
25 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Close bug
#5580; pkg_setup() now gets called during all build-related stages.
24 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: rewrote
create() function, closing bug #5469. Also added freeze() and melt() methods
to portdbapi to enhance performance. create() is now extensively commented
and even understandable.
24 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: the "rsync --clean"
option has been deprecated. Cleaning is now on by default, closing bug
#5527.
24 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, make.globals:
It should now be safe to do what Spider did in the gconf ebuild and add
CONFIG_PROTECT and CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK to /etc/env.d entries. Both variables
are now incremental, just like USE, and you can use "-path" to turn a path
off, or add CONFIG_PROTECT{_MASK}="path" to *add* a path to the list (this
will not overwrite "parent" settings. Also added "/etc/env.d/" to
CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK in /etc/make.globals. Also, very importantly, /etc/env.d
is now hard-coded into CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK as it was in earlier versions of
Portage and cannot be removed.
24 Jul 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py: two
fixes; first, I removed xcache.p support from portage.py. The code was
designed based on the false theory that directory mtimes are updated whenever
an object inside that directory is modified. That is not the case -- it
happens when the directory listing itself changes. Also fixed overly verbose
emerge merging error.
23 Jul 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Updated the man
page to match some changes in the latest version of portage, along with some
fixes recommended by drobbins.
*portage-2.0.17 (23 Jul 2002)
23 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed a bug
pointed out by trance -- dep_nomatch() was still using the old (deleted)
match() function. Now it's using a new match() method.
*portage-2.0.16 (22 Jul 2002)
22 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: changed xcache
behavior so that the cache gets totally thrown away when the masks are
updated. Also revamped carpaski's code so we can avoid loading xcache from
disk if we simply plan to throw it away. This necessitated the creation of a
new file in /var/cache/edb: mtimes. This file stores mtimes for various
important filesystem objects. Also added support to not regenerate the GNU
info directory index if the mtime on /usr/share/info has not changed since
previous invocation.
22 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: moved
security handling code from emerge to portage.py; also moved group "wheel"
check to portage.py. Added additional security checks and permissions fixes
to the cache handling functions.
22 Jul 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed a bug
reported by woodchip related to merging packages. When using --usepkg, a
package wouldn't be used if there was a newer unmasked version of the ebuild
available, even if the package in question was the right selection.
22 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed create() code
and consolidated some functions. My goal is to simplify the emerge code
until it's clean, at which point we can begin adding new features to emerge
like more SLOT-friendly decision making.
22 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: was able to
remove 130 or so lines of code by depreciating the match() function (replaced
by the match2() method.) I also rennovated the binarytree code to take
advantage of fakedbapi.
22 Jul 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: added the
xcache.p fix and updated the version to 2.0.16pre (from 2.0.12) -- Also added
in a try/except inside the store() (atexit) for xcache.p to give hints
instead of tracebacks.
22 Jul 2002; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: added the
description searching code and added a spinner to the search.
21 Jul 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Finished the
rewrite of the emerge man page.
21 Jul 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge: Readded the sync
help to the list of help options now that emerge --help sync works again.
*portage-2.0.15 (16 Jul 2002)
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emake: no longer falls back
to plain old "make" if parallel make fails. I believe it's best to fix the
problem (turn parallel make off in the ebuild) rather than tweak emake to
avoid it.
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: rewrote some code,
cleaning things up and removing redundant functions. Starting to
de-cruftify.
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fix for permissions
when updating the cache using server-generated entries.
*portage-2.0.14 (15 Jul 2002)
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: ccache bug fix;
removed extra "!". Ccache should now get enabled properly. Also, INHERITED
variable is now getting added to the dep cache entries for future
eclass-friendly caching.
15 Jul 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Portage now
*persistently* caches xmatch() calculations. This appears to speed things up
but we will need to limit the size of the new xcache.p in future versions of
Portage.
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: Portage
now has keyword-based masking enabled. It also has server-side caching
enabled to eliminate "emerge pre-Calculating dependencies... delay" for
end-users. There is now an undocumented "regen" option for emerge that tells
Portage to ensure that all entries in /var/cache/edb/dep are up-to-date.
This is intended mainly for developers, as the server-side caching feature
should ensure that all dep cache entries are up-to-date for end-users.
15 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> repoman: repoman now checks
for ebuilds that generate output as well as ebuilds that return a non-zero
error code when sourced. For this test to detect all failures, you need to
wipe out your /var/cache/edb/dep/* before running repoman. This design quirk
is necessary to preserve existing emerge behavior.
13 Jul 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Removed
Azarah's ebuildsh() function as it breaks pkg_setup() again. pkg_setup()
needs to be called as part of the same process as any other ebuil.sh command
so that environment vars set in pkg_setup() are preserved through the rest of
the build process.
13 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: changed calling
convention for doebuild("depend").
13 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: removed
erroneous "local dbkeys" that was outside of a function. This fixes some
cache update problems. Added INHERIT to our cache entries so we can
correctly update the cache for eclass ebuilds.
12 Jul 2002; Dan Armak <danarmak@gentoo.org> make.globals, make.globals.ppc:
remove default KDE2DIR, KDE3DIR settings and comments. The kde eclasses will
now handle the case where they are not defined. This will be used with kde
3.1 and later, and the difference between their default value and them not
being defined is important.
*portage-2.0.13 (11 Jul 2002)
11 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> tarball.sh: our tarball
script didn't clean the src/sandbox directory before creating our distribution
tarball. This resulted in src/sandbox/sandbox (the executable) being distributed,
and the "make" in the ebuild thinking everything was up-to-date. The result?
Everyone in the world got a sandbox compiled with gcc 3.1. This has been
fixed, closing bug #4867, #4851.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: removed some
bogus code that snuck in. pkg_setup() is no longer called when installing a
tbz2. All tbz2 stuff should be done in pkg_pre/postinst().
*portage-2.0.12 (10 Jul 2002)
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ccache support is now
controlled via a "ccache" FEATURES variable, which is enabled in make.globals
my default. ccache support can now be turned off by adding a
FEATURES="-ccache" to /etc/make.conf. Also, CCACHE_DIR correctly detected
and utilized.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: "emerge --help
rsync" now works correctly and displays rync help rather than rsyncing. This
closes bug #4438, #4629.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Portage now
prints a friendly error if PORTAGE_TMPDIR doesn't exist or is not a
directory. This effectively closes bug #4360.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: the "inject",
"sync" and "rsync" actions no longer allow "--pretend" or "-p" to be
specified. This closes bug #4352.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> sandbox.c: use realpath()
to expand the PORTAGE_TMPDIR, /var/tmp, /tmp paths. This allows write access
to these directories even if /var or /var/tmp is a symlink, for example.
Without this fix, access to these directories will be denied by the sandbox,
creating a bunch of problems. Closes bugs #4256, #2379, #4625, #2931, #4829.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> megadigest, megadownload,
megatouch, pkgsearch: removed from the bin/ directory; deprecated.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge, quickpkg: remove
hard-coded references to "/usr/portage" in "emerge search", quickpkg. Now
correctly uses PORTDIR instead. Closes bug #4836.
10 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: emerge now checks
to see if the "wheel" group exists before running; if it doesn't, it exits
with a polite error message. Closes bug #4736.
08 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: changed the
unmerge() code so that it doesn't use mtimes to test whether a symlink
should be unmerged, since mtimes and symlinks are weird partners. Instead,
we save unmerging of our symlinks until the end of the code, and unmerge
them only if their target no longer exists. This closes bug #4491.
08 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: check whether
ebuild actually exists immediately before running pkg_postint() and
pkg_preinst() from the dblink merge() method. Also change all PKG_TMPDIR
references to PORTAGE_TMPDIR plus suffix, closing bug #4447, #4853.
*portage-2.0.11 (07 Jul 2002)
07 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: rewrote
portdbapi's xmatch() and visible() to fix significant bugs. Logic errors in
both methods caused ~ deps to not work correctly. After the rewrite,
dependency checking is now 44% faster.
07 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> repoman, portage.py: Added
new DEPEND and RDEPEND.badmasked categories to repoman. repoman now checks
dependencies of masked packages using *all* ebuilds, rather than trying to
match them against all visible ebuilds. DEPEND.bad and RDEPEND.bad (used to
be ".unsolvable") now only tally visible ebuilds, not masked ones.
*portage-2.0.10 (06 Jul 2002)
05 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, repoman: Added
new capabilities to repoman -- the ability to detect unsolvable DEPEND and
RDEPEND variables, missing DESCRIPTION, LICENSE, KEYWORDS and SLOT. Fixed
repoman so that adding a comment with quotes in it doesn't break things.
Added a few tiny extensions to portage.py to support the new repoman
features.
03 Jul 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: some ebuilds
like gcc do not use $S to build the package in, and this causes generated .la
files (libtool) to contain $WORKDIR in them. We thus export $WORKDIR in
ebuild.sh as well, to go along with fixes to the libtool-portage patch.
02 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: pkg_setup() now
gets called before a tbz2 is installed, and pkg_preinst() and postinst() get
called at the right times as well.
01 Jul 2002; Phil Bordelon <sunflare@gentoo.org> emerge: "emerge --help
rsync" does an rsync instead of printing help. Until this is fixed, I
removed it from the list of detailed help options.
*portage-2.0.9 (01 Jul 2002)
01 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> Added missing .match()
method to portdbapi.
01 Jul 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added new
operator for dependencies: DEPEND="foo? bar : oni" will use oni if foo isn't
set. Added "||" support back after removing it from my working copy; looks
ok.
29 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, make.globals,
make.globals.ppc: internalized definitions of BUILDDIR and PKG_TMPDIR in
order to make things work as expected when one sets PORTAGE_TMPDIR. The new
config file var expansion algorithm made this change necessary.
29 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fix doebuild()
so that pkg_setup() gets called when a .tbz2 package is being built. This
closes bug #3673.
29 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: tweaked the
aux_get() code to automatically regenerate cache files if they have the
incorrect number of entries. Added an additional fix to this code on 01 Jul
2002.
29 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py: merge in some
of the missing ld.so.preload fixes again.
29 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: new version
with highly-optimized dependency calculation caching, particularly for
portdbapi. Includes new three-level caching portdbapi xmatch() method.
27 Jun 2002; Grant Goodyear <g2boojum@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added keepdir()
function so that it no longer has to be hardcoded in ebuilds.
*portage-2.0.8 (27 Jun 2002)
27 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: in an attempt to
provide a predictable release of Portage, I'm reverting the "emerge
--pretend" "fix" in Portage-2.0.6. It ignores custom USE settings when
calculating child deps, which makes things tricky for users. We'll use the
"expected" (old) behavior for now until we have a solution for this USE
issue.
27 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed handling
of ! deps in match(), closing bug #4219. Thanks Spidler!
27 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: disabled USE
regeneration on reset() for performance purposes.
*portage-2.0.7 (26 Jun 2002)
26 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: add a friendly
error handler for aux_get() so that flaky ebuilds don't cause it to trip up
with a cryptic traceback; users will get a friendly error message instead.
Also, temporarily disable keyword-based masking, since it currently slows
down Portage by quite a bit since it causes a much greater set of ebuilds to
be cached.
*portage-2.0.6 (25 Jun 2002)
25 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: rewrote the
config file code to make things more sane, consistent, and made infinite
loops during variable expansion a thing of the past. This closes bug #3952.
25 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py,
ebuild.sh: "emerge --pretend" and "emerge search" now work for the root user
as well as any users in the "wheel" group. emerge will now gracefully exit
if "emerge search" is run by someone not in the "wheel" group. This closes
bug #4121.
25 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> bin/{dolib.so,preplib.so}:
Also change "strip --strip-unneeded" to "strip --strip-debug" for these.
Look at bugs #2702,#3929,#4027 for more info.
25 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: "emerge -u" now
correctly scans dependencies of packages, even if they are up-to-date, to
determine if any of their dependencies need updating. Previously, up-to-date
packages were not scanned in this way, which was a bug.
24 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Portage will now
automatically take advantage of ccache if the >=dev-util/ccache-1.9 ebuild is
installed. Removing /var/cache/ccache hole in the sandbox.
*portage-2.0.5 (24 Jun 2002)
23 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: basic keyword-
based masking is now active. New support for KEYWORDS in ebuilds and
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in profiles.
23 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> conf files: removed
references to non-functional FTP_PROXY and HTTP_PROXY and added a note about
how to use the correct vars (ftp_proxy and http_proxy.) Closes bug #1664.
Also added note about RSYNC_PROXY, closing bug #2332.
23 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: removed
"dependency too short" checks which weren't working and were causing deps
like "mc" and "ed" to be rejected as invalid rather than being expanded.
23 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: upgraded "clean"
code to be more robust, consistent. Closes bug #3967.
*portage-2.0.4 (20 Jun 2002)
20 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> in the 2.0.4 ebuild itself:
added back tbz2tool symlink which was mistakenly removed. Also changed the
way we compile portage.py stuff so that we remove the previously compiled
files, just in case clock skew cause them to seem more recent than they
really are. Python byte-code compilation moved to pkg_postinst()
20 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed up the
fetch() code so that invalid digests don't cause a traceback.
20 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: some of the new
transplanted virtuals code assumed that profiledir was set, which is not
required. This code has now been fixed to not make that assumption.
*portage-2.0.3 (20 Jun 2002)
20 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed two typos
pointed out by stroke and g2boojum. These fix unmerge and some aspect of
virtuals handling, which was previously causing a traceback.
19 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: emerge -eup world
now will ignore world entries if it isn't really installed locally; in 2.0.1,
--emptytree would auto-enable all world entries, leading to inconsistent
package lists between --emptytree and without.
*portage-2.0.2 (19 Jun 2002)
19 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.conf.ppc,
make.globals.ppc: integrated these files into our sources.
19 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed a bug
where ROOT="" would not get properly converted to ROOT="/".
18 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: Portage 2.0+ has
fixed "!" depend matching support, but some code in emerge was designed to
anticipate the incorrect behavior. This emerge code has been fixed to work
correctly. This closes my part of bug #3834.
18 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: fixed
bug #2444, where emerge fails when "--emptytree" and "--onlydeps" are used at
the same time.
18 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: new
fakedbapi for doing emptytree calculations; emptytree upgrades in emerge.
"emerge -upe world" now works correctly, accounting for items in the world
profile. Yay! Bugs #3832 and #1911 fixed.
18 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge:
Integrated new aux_get() method into our portdbapi. aux_get() provides a
standardized way to get cached information about ebuilds, and is now fully
integrated into Portage and emerge search.
18 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed a bug
where dep_nomatch() was testing for None rather than a "zero" condition,
causing dep_nomatch() to choke on match()'s [] return value.
17 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: added an exception
handler to catch invalid regular expressions and avoid a traceback.
17 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> sandbox.c: added
/var/cache/ccache to sandbox "write ok" list, closing bug #3028.
*portage-2.0.1 (16 Jun 2002)
16 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: fixed a
virtuals expansion bug that would cause virtuals to be consulted too early.
*portage-2.0 (16 Jun 2002)
16 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, ebuild.sh,
emerge: turbo-ified Portage, new Portage db API and many other fixes.
Unmerging now works again (bug introduced several releases ago.) I
originally wanted to hold off on releasing 2.0, but since several major bugs
are fixed, we need to get these fixes out to our users ASAP. We will be
releasing 2.1 in about a week which should include additional refinements.
16 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> repoman: New repoman
commit/check QA tool for developers.
10 Jun 2002; Dan Armak <danarmak@gentoo.org> make.conf: Update the ibiblio
mirror path; it is now www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo.
10 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh : Some users have
$TMPDIR to a custom dir in their home ...this will cause sandbox errors with
some ./configure scripts or libtool, so set it to $T.
10 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> portage.py : Merge in the
ld.so.preload changes. Also updated spawn() to only run sandbox if
buildphase is one of clean, unpack, compile or install. This should fix the
handler not detecting some instances of sandbox running. Updated ebuildsh()
to set buildphase="" on spawn exit.
10 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>
portage.py.ldsopreload,testsandbox.sh : Add support to test if another
sandbox is running, if so dont delete /etc/ld.so.preload on kill. I did not
commit this to portage.py, as it is a bit more changes than we originally
though.
05 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: doebuild() now
has proper logic for digest generation. Digest will now get regenerated if
"ebuild digest" is run, even if "digest" is in FEATURES.
04 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed typo in
"inject" documentation.
02 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> bin/dosym: changed the
command used from "ln -sf" to "ln -snf" as it created a symlink in the target
directory if the linkname already existed (only if the target is a
directory). Im guessing this should be fixed in the python merged code if
symlinks are not unlinked before the new is merged into place .. will add a
bug later.
*portage-1.9.14 (01 Jun 2002)
01 Jun 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: when a file to
be merged is identical to the one currently on disk (using the md5 test), we
now at least correctly update the target's mtime and atime so that cleaning
will work correctly.
27 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> bin/do*: changed "return"s
to "exit 1". Closes bug #3078.
*portage-1.9.13 (21 May 2002)
21 May 2002; Grant Goodyear <g2boojum@gentoo.org> emerge.1: Updated man page.
Thanks to carpaski@twobit.net.
20 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: a fix for dep
regeneration; stale dep cache entries should now be properly regenerated.
*portage-1.9.12 (16 May 2002)
16 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: the settings
for A and AA were swapped; this has now been fixed, closing bug #1634.
15 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed up some
quirks in the new fetch code which were reported by Wout Mertens. Thanks
Wout!
*portage-1.9.11 (13 May 2002)
13 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: addition of
third-party mirroring code. "mirror://sourceforge/foo.tar.gz" will use the
/usr/portage/profiles/thirdpartymirrors file to define the mirror it will
download from. Multiple mirrors for a single keyword can be specified on a
single line. This code was based on the good work of Ryan Phillips.
13 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: (entry on behalf
of jnelson) -- we now have new KV detection/setting code that uses
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h to determine the kernel version -- the
right way of doing things. KV is set to "" if the kernel is not available or
not configured.
13 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: "abspath[x]" =>
"abspath(x)" typo fix. Also added 2-liner to allow for "emerge unmerge" to
specify "foo/bar-1.0" rather than requiring "=foo/bar-1.0." Also fixed
problems when specifying the names of actual ebuilds in /var/db/pkg to
unmerge.
*portage-1.9.9 (06 May 2002) ??
08 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: An empty
USE_ORDER (due to an out-of-date /etc/make.globals) would cause USE to always
be empty. I added a reasonable default USE_ORDER if USE_ORDER is not found
in any of the config files, fixing this problem.
06 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: post bug #1841
cleanups; converted from .hasnode() to .dep_match() (correct) in
getworldlist().
*portage-1.9.8 (06 May 2002)
06 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: 2 fixes that seemed
to get fried/zapped: bug #1841 and fixing an emerge sync error code to be
more understandable.
*portage-1.9.7 (06 May 2002)
06 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: initial
bunch of robustness/error-handling fixes. Emerge should now report a
comprehensible error message for errors in DEPEND and RDEPEND rather than
giving a traceback. Fixed dep_depreduce() to catch errors rather than
passing them on to dep_bestmatch() (which doesn't check for errors and
assumes correct input)
02 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: typo fix for
S_ISFIFO call; thanks woodchip!
*portage-1.9.6 (02 May 2002)
02 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.conf: SYNC variable
correctly set to use our DNS round-robin system (rsync.gentoo.org).
*portage-1.9.6_pre2 (01 May 2002)
01 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: config file
protection upgrade; we now record md5sums of previously-merged config protect
files in /var/cache/edb/config; we use this information to avoid merging
files that have been merged by us before (if it is safe to do so). This
doesn't solve the problem of rolling back to a previously-merged version of
a config file; we need to add cvs headers to every config file to get that
to work.
*portage-1.9.6_pre1 (01 May 2002)
01 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: added "inject"
capability to artificially satisfy a dep -- for situations when you don't
want Portage to do it for you because you've taken care of it already.
01 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: totally
rewrote emerge's unmerge code. The original code (added by Bevin) was a bit
too cryptic and "big" for my taste. Also added two new capabilities to
portage.py's vartree: .getslot() and .gettimeval(). getslot() returns the
slot value of a cat/pkg-v, if any, and gettimeval() returns a "time value"
(based on mtime/COUNTER value) that can be used to determine the order in
which packages got merged. The purpose of these improvements were to revamp
the existing Portage code that could only unmerge a db entry if there was a
corresponding ebuild file. This conflicted with the ability to "inject"
packages (see above), so it needed to be changed. Also fixed some bugs along
the way.
01 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: einstall now
accepts arguments, closing bug #2275. Thanks seemant! :)
01 May 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.globals: switch SYNC
var from cvs.gentoo.org to rsync.gentoo.org, and gentoo-x86-portage to
gentoo-portage.
30 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: now checks for
errors (caused by bad deps) returned by create() and syscreate().
*portage-1.9.5 (29 Apr 2002)
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: added jnelson's
KV_extract.awk script which extracts the kernel version from the actual
kernel sources Makefile, making our KV setting much more robust! Thanks Jon
:)
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: correctly fixed
emerge search examples to use single quotes (to turn off globbing.) This
closes bug #1609.
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: virtual entries
for no-longer-installed packages now get automatically removed on unmerge.
This closes bug #2255 and #1891 (Thilo Bangert's comment on #1891 is also
fixed.)
*portage-1.9.4 (29 Apr 2002)
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added support
for RESTRICT="nomirror". If "mirror" is defined in FEATURES and "nomirror"
is defined in RESTRICT, then files will not be fetched.
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: Fixed docs for
"unmerge", added docs for "--oneshot". Closes bugs #2156 and #2182.
29 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Fix for USE
troubles; confirmed by Azarah as working :) Also, we now strip the path
from "KV" as we should.
*portage-1.9.4_pre1 (26 Apr 2002)
26 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> tarball.sh: no longer
necessary for VERSION to equal "@portage_version@" to get the version
auto-set. VERSION can now be set to anything and tarball.sh will get it
right.
26 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: I've started work
on revamping/improving the "blocks" system to get ready to fix bug #1891.
Already fixed a bug where "blocks" ("!" deps) print out the wrong blocking
package name. This is now fixed. Blocks need additional testing.
26 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, ebuild.sh, use:
"use" is now a bash builtin function rather than an external python-based
command. This appears to fix the USE inconstencies, as it should, thereby
closing bug #2000.
*portage-1.9.3 (24 Apr 2002)
24 Apr 2002; Jon Nelson <jnelson@gentoo.org>: portage.py, chkcontents:
Emulate fchksum's md5 checksum routine. Closes bug #2787.
23 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: emerge: invalid
short options result in an exit. Closes bug #2025.
22 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: emerge: rsync zlib
compression enabled by default.
*portage-1.9.2 (21 Apr 2002)
21 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: signal
handler now zaps /etc/ld.so.preload if it's there -- this prevents it
from hanging around and causing sandbox badness.
21 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: emerge: fixed an
error where --emptytree mode wouldn't really have a fully empty tree,
due to the emptytree.inject() coming before the emptytree.root=None;
the inject() caused a recalc of the USE vars, which caused the tree
to become partially populated and it wasn't cleared. This closes bug
#1897.
21 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: package
building now executes the "setup" stage along with the unpack, compile,
install stages so that global variables can be shared. This fixes an issue
with woodchip's new apache ebuild and closes bug #1813.
*portage-1.9.1 (16 Apr 2002)
16 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: tiny (and forgotten)
quick fix.
*portage-1.9.0 (16 Apr 2002)
16 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: fetching
should now try *all* alternate download locations, closing bug #1544.
Yay!
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: emerge: "emerge R" now
works correctly, closing bug #1094.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: ebuild.sh: *'s and ?'s in
DEPEND and SRC_URI syntax should no longer get glob-expanded to files in
/usr/portage. This fixes some cryptic bugs. It also closes bug #1473.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: emerge --debug
now works again. Closes bug #1437.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: moved argument
check to the beginning of the doebuild() function to prevent "ebuild
foo.ebuild fart" from causing the md5sums to be checked before recognizing
that "fart" is not a valid command. Closes bug #1823.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: 'USE="-foo"
emerge bar' should now work correctly and consistently. Fixes to the config
class. Closes bug #1455.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: applied
jnelson's patch to properly kill all children when interrupted with ^C
15 Apr 2002; Donny Davies <woodchip@gentoo.org>: make.conf: added a
RESUMECOMMAND for lukemftp.
15 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: fixed up some
"zing" logic inside the merge code (fixing variable being used before
assignment errors)
15 Apr 2002; Jon Nelson <jnelson@gentoo.org>: src/sandbox/Makefile,
src/sandbox/problems/Makefile, src/sandbox/problems/sandbox_dev_fd_foo.c,
src/sandbox/sandbox.c: Cleaned up Makefiles somewhat to take advantage of GNU
Make, added '/dev/zero' and /dev/fd/' (<- note trailing slash) to the list of
items accessible safely from the sandbox. Added sandbox_dev_fd_foo.c to test
for /dev/fd/<xx>. The test is almost verbatim from the autoconf test suite.
13 Apr 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org>: ebuild.sh:
Export $S and $D in dyn_compile and dyn_install, as our patched
version of libtool uses these to fixup .la files.
*portage-1.8.19 (09 Apr 2002)
08 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org>: emerge: Removed --all switch to
emerge unmerge and clea. Added emerge prune which is the same as old emerge
unmerge. Emerge unmerge removes all instances again without any proctedtion,
as before. Added reporting of Omitted versions due to dep selectors.
Renamed Removing and Keeping to Selected and Protected
08 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org>: emerge, portage.py: Better
unmerge and clean reporting. Added homepage output to emerge --search.
Bugfix when specifying a package without category that doesn't exist.
*portage-1.8.18 (07 Apr 2002)
07 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org>: make.globals, emerge:
Simplified unmerge functionality. Deprecated the CLEANMODE var,
emerge clean now removes both revisions and slots automatically,
emerge unmerge now removes all versions and revisions by default.
Both understand world and system targets, and the --all option which doesn't
check which packages are old and outdated.
Documentation fixes.
AUTOCLEAN var addition and added the autoclean functionality.
*portage-1.8.17 (05 Apr 2002)
05 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: no longer
print out the counter number after a merge. This information should not
need to be known by end-users.
05 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: sandbox.c: patched to
allow access to /dev/vc from sandbox, allowing vim and screen to compile
correctly from console.
05 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: fixed a bug
that prevented md5 digests from being compared on archives.
04 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: portage.py: Parse errors
in /etc/env.d files no longer cause a traceback.
*portage-1.8.16 (04 Apr 2002)
04 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge : Forgot to
commit my changes, this is an assembled version of both drobbins's and my
changes
*portage-1.8.15 (04 Apr 2002)
04 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed a
semi-long standing bug where I was comparing atimes rather than mtimes when
seeing if dep caches were stale. This fixes a bug originally reported by Dan
Armak.
*portage-1.8.14 (04 Apr 2002)
04 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge:
Fixed short options for --all, --safe and clean.
*portage-1.8.13 (04 Apr 2002)
04 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge:
Added emerge --all clean and emerge --safe unmerge.
Made the counter updates atomic so that multiple merges can happen without
risking counter clashes.
Updated --help.
Fixed short options bug that prevented two seperate short options to be
specified successively.
*portage-1.8.12 (04 Apr 2002)
04 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge:
implemented "emerge clean" with oldrevs, oldversions and oldslots options for
the make.conf/make.globals CLEANMODE variable.
03 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added an
indentation fix to prevent merge from dying if a file attempts to install
itself on top of an existing directory. Closes bug #1498.
*portage-1.8.11.1 (03 Apr 2002)
03 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py: important fixes
for movefile() -- changed the order of ownership / permissions settings since
suid/guid bits were overwritten, added support back for 'ebuild config' since
it was accidentally left out
*portage-1.8.11 (02 Apr 2002)
02 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: important fixes
for movefile() -- ownership now preserved across filesystems, mv -f fallback
for special files, other optimizations and robustness improvements. Important
fixes all-round.
02 Apr 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge:
fixed bad indentation of a part of the code that made unmerging multiple
packages behave badly
*portage-1.8.10 (01 Apr 2002)
01 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.globals: removed USE
settings from make.globals.
01 Apr 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: In trying to fix
the glibc merge bug, we rewrote movefile() and it now runs blazingly fast. I
also tweaked the code to remove the need for an ">>> Updating mtimes..."
stage. This is all done dynamically now. *Much* faster. And hopefully
solid for glibc upgraders.
*portage-1.8.9.4 (01 Apr 2002)
31 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: adapted
movefile() which should preserves timestamps and ownership on files and
symlinks it moves.
*portage-1.8.9.3 (31 Mar 2002)
31 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: promising
rewrite of movefile() not only will probably fix glibc merge bug but also
speeds up merging at least 20x! Calling "mv" for every file really make
things super-slow!
*portage-1.8.9.2 (31 Mar 2002)
31 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: desperate attempt
to fix movefile() bug... a hack really. glibc merges still dying.
*portage-1.8.9.1 (31 Mar 2002)
31 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: it appears that
movefile() (using "/bin/mv") can still die if moving a new symlink on top of
an existing library symlink. Upon failure, we now use a fallback mechanism
to use "/bin/sln" to create the new symlink safely.
*portage-1.8.9 (30 Mar 2002)
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: tiny cosmetic
fix for digest generation.
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: entries in the
world profile will be ignored if at least one version of the package in
question isn't already merged. Prevents "--update world" from remerging
packages that have since been unmerged.
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> various: changing all
references from /usr/bin/python to /usr/bin/python2.2.
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> db-update.py: moving this
script here from FILESDIR.
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: stuff doesn't
get added to the world profile if it is already an essential ("*") package in
the system profile. Keeps things clean and flexible.
*portage-1.8.9_pre38 (30 Mar 2002)
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: resolve_key()
didn't call load() on mapped virtuals, resulting in inconsistent resolution
of virtual keys. Now fixed; thanks to woodchip for the bug report.
*portage-1.8.9_pre37 (30 Mar 2002)
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: specific
provides (dev-lang/python-2.2) will be converted to their generic form
(dev-lang/python) before being recorded.
*portage-1.8.9_pre36 (30 Mar 2002)
30 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: new
virtuals fixes and a db-upgrade.py script in the ebuild to solve another
virtuals problem.
*portage-1.8.9_pre35 (29 Mar 2002)
29 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: digest
generation fixes; emerge --update will now update dependents even if the main
package hasn't been updated. getdict() fix, fixing a traceback.
*portage-1.8.9_pre34 (28 Mar 2002)
28 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added an indent
fix for the new virtuals code, eliminating a traceback. Tweaked digest handling,
fixing a cosmetic error.
*portage-1.8.9_pre33 (28 Mar 2002)
28 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: tweaked digest
creation in doebuild() to hopefully avoid creating digests twice. I hope I
didn't break anything in the process.
28 Mar 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: "emerge
update" is now "emerge --update"; "world" added back. New world
implementation that works like this ... if you type "emerge media-gfx/gimp",
media-gfx/gimp will be added to the "world" favorites file in
/var/cache/edb/world. This world file is added to the system profile in
order to create the set of "world" packages to merge. You can manually put
specific deps (for pinning) in /var/cache/edb/world and they won't get
overwritten. To prevent a package that you specify on the emerge
command-line from being added to the world profile, use the "--oneshot"
option, which tells emerge that it should be merged once but not updated.
28 Mar 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: New virtuals
implementation; new virtual info is recorded in /var/cache/edb/virtuals;
virtuals data is created by merging the profile virtual info with the new
edb/virtuals file. Note: We no longer add virtual package entries to
/var/db/pkg. This change solves the bug where virtual files get auto-updated
by pkg-update, and also solves the bug where doing an "emerge --update world"
will cause ssmtp to be merged in order to satisfy the virtual/mta dep (which
you already have satisfied by postfix, for example). Now, postfix will be
updated if necessary, but that's it. :)
*portage-1.8.9_pre32 (22 Mar 2002)
22 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed a bug
related to scanning for available binary packages, which would cause emerge
to die.
21 Mar 2002; Dan Armak <danarmak@gentoo.org> portage.py: added ECLASSDIR
(=$PORTDIR/eclass) to settings exported by python side to bash side.
ebuild.sh: remove ECLASSDIR setting to use the one now provided by
portage.py. Also, clean inherit() and make it use debug-print().
*portage-1.8.9_pre31 (21 Mar 2002)
21 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: Added Dan
Armak's patch to enable eclasses. :)
21 Mar 2002; Grant Goodyear <g2boojum@gentoo.org> portage.py:
Added a drobbins patch to at line 469. Should fix emerge rsync
problem when /etc/make.profile doesn't exist.
*portage-1.8.9_pre30 (20 Mar 2002)
20 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: emerge
--emptytree now works again and I added a new --nodeps option to emerge as
well.
*portage-1.8.9_pre29 (20 Mar 2002)
20 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: CONTENTS files
now record the correct path when ROOT!="/".
*portage-1.8.9_pre28 (20 Mar 2002)
20 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: an
/etc/make.profile dir is now optional and portage will work if it's missing
or is a broken symlink.
20 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fix load()
method in packagetree() class.
*portage-1.8.9_pre27 (19 Mar 2002)
19 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py:
/etc/make.profile/packages wasn't correctly masking core system packages;
fixed.
*portage-1.8.9_pre26 (18 Mar 2002)
18 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: configuration
settings don't get loaded from ${ROOT}/etc anymore, just /etc. This
simplifies the creation of a new build image.
18 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Don't expect a
digest file if SRC_URI is set to "" or undefined.
18 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: RDEPEND was getting set
to DEPEND even if there was an RDEPEND="" in the ebuild. This has now been
fixed and RDEPEND will only get to DEPEND if RDEPEND has unset (not "unset
or null", as it was before this fix.)
18 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: emerge: circular
dependencies error will result in the digraph dependencies being printed to
stdout, greatly simplifying debugging.
18 Mar 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org>: src/sandbox/problems: Added
several sample implementations to reproduce reported bugs.
18 Mar 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org>: libsandbox.c: All paths are now
checked for multiple successive slashes anywhere, this closes bug 827.
Performance should be slightly improved for other apps on the system for who
the sandbox is not turned on.
14 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: output.py: quick fix to
turn off white color output -- not good for terminals with white background.
This closes bug #1135.
11 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: Applied karltk's version
information patch. Portage.py now contains version information, and this
info is reported by "emerge --version". Thanks Karl! :)
*portage-1.8.9_pre25 (11 Mar 2002)
10 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge: roll
back portagetree incremental db optimizations to fix an important bug (no
package.mask calculations being done.) Emerge will now abort if a dependency
can't be satisfied rather than printing just a warning.
*portage-1.8.9_pre24 (09 Mar 2002)
09 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: fixed missing
"--clean" option so "--clean rsync" should work again. Also converted emerge
to work with our new db layout (db objects are in the portage module now).
09 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Added USE
ordering, a concept envisioned by Vitaly Kushneriuk. The idea is to allow
customization of how Portage resolves USE variables. The default is
"env:conf:auto:defaults" (set in the USE_ORDER variable -- this default is
now in make.globals but as always you should set your custom USE_ORDER in
make.conf if desired.) So, my default, USE settings will be calculated as
follows. The USE variables will be grabbed from the
/etc/make.profile/make.defaults file (this is "defaults".) Then, the
/etc/make.profile/use.defaults file will be consulted. This file lists (one
per line) a USE variable and a corresponding dependency. If the dependency
is satisfied, the USE variable is auto-enabled and added to our working list
(this is "auto"). Then /etc/make.conf is consulted, so that the user has the
option of force-enabling (with USE="foo") or force-disabling (with
USE="-foo") any USE variables as desired (this is "conf".) Then, the
environment is consulted, allowing easy modifications from the command-line
(this is "env"). Also added is the ability for USE settings to be
dynamically regenerated in an efficient way as packages are merged. So,
right after xfree is emerged, the "X" use variable can be immediately
auto-enabled. Thanks to Vitaly for providing the vision for this.
*portage-1.8.9_pre23 (08 Mar 2002)
09 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: our portage
tree and /var/db/pkg tree now uses incremental caching rather than doing
an exhaustive scan on startup. This should speed up this respective code
by 2-30x depending on how many packages you're emerging. This involved
quite a few changes to the code, and there could be some bugs, although I
tried to be very careful. These changes could also break code that access
internal .tree[] dictionaries directly.
08 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: SRC_URIs with
USE-enabled ( ) clauses in them weren't working because I was iterating
through multi-level lists without flatten()ing them. Now fixed.
07 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: We no longer
depend upon a file being unmerged. We try to unlink during unmerge() in a
"try" clause, with an exception for OSError. If the directory is immutable
then Portage continues gracefully. This closes a bug reported by Verwilst --
unmerging an old baselayout would die when it tried to delete /dev/shm.
Fixed in Portage to eliminate these kinds of problems in the future.
*portage-1.8.9_pre22 (07 Mar 2002)
07 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: I had
sys.exit() in doebuild()'s fetch section. Converted to "return 1" and
"return 0" to be emerge --fetchonly friendly. Thanks to Dan Armak for the
bug report.
*portage-1.8.9_pre21 (07 Mar 2002)
07 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: fixed symlink
merge bug related to "safe" emerges. This should fix problems of Portage
dying when merging certain things. I'm hoping that this fix will give us a
solid merge implementation. It should. Thanks to Bart Verwilst for tracking
down a merge problem that I could reproduce.
*portage-1.8.9_pre20 (06 Mar 2002)
06 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh, others: users
can now forcefully disable stripping of their ebuild binaries by adding a
RESTRICT="nostrip" to their ebuild. Additionally, the DEBUG variable has
been renamed to DEBUGBUILD to prevent namespace collisions. This closes bug
#868.
06 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Fixed a
long-standing bug where the pkg_preinst() and pkg_postinst() functions being
called came from the existing package ebuild in /var/db/pkg rather than the
new ebuild being merged. pkg_prerm() and pkg_postrm() still use the ebuild
in /var/db/pkg, which is correct. Thanks to Dan Armak for tracking down this
bug.
*portage-1.8.9_pre19 (05 Mar 2002)
05 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Fixed two bugs
reported by Dan Armak relating to incomplete (not missing) message digests.
They should now get regenerated automatically is "digest" is in FEATURES and
not confuse the fetch code.
*portage-1.8.9_pre18 (04 Mar 2002)
04 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Bug fix in
dep_bestmatch(); rev comparison now works correctly and dep_bestmatch will
properly handle 2-digit revisions in particular. This closes bug #952.
04 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Thanks to a
bug report by Bruce Locke, the long-standing bug where symlinks with
different mtimes would still get unmerged is now fixed. This allows glibc
(of all things) to be unmerged safely. We needed this fix. Closes bug #964.
03 Mar 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : KDEDIR ->
KDEDIRS (fixing my typo)
*portage-1.8.9_pre17 (27 Feb 2002)
27 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge : --help
documentation is now up-to-date; short options tweaked.
26 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Fixed an
unmerge error caused by digests now being recorded in lowercase. unmerge now
compensates for 100% backwards compatibility. Moved "continue" outside of
"try" block since this is disallowed in Python. This fixes a python warning
during fetch.
26 Feb 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> bin/dohtml : Added support for
installing .gif files too since quite some docs still ship with those instead
of .jpg or .png.
*portage-1.8.9_pre16 (25 Feb 2002)
25 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge : emerge syntax
changed back to "classic" style; replaced dots with spinner, did a major code
cleanup and removed pieces that will be rewritten for 1.8.9 final. emerge
documentation isn't up-to-date at all; I'm holding off on the --help rewrite
until after 1.8.9 features have been finalized (soon!)
25 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> : Added RESTRICT variable
to ebuilds. If RESTRICT="fetch" is set in the ebuild, it means that the
files listed in SRC_URI are simply filenames and that the real files must be
downloaded manually. This allows us to deal with realplayer, since
overriding dyn_fetch is no longer an option now that we have the fetch code
in python. Also added a cosmetic tweak to emerge during info file
regeneration.
25 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> cnf/* : updated ${x} ->
${URI} in $FETCHCOMMAND.
24 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> Fixed another fetch bug
where the download wouldn't cycle to alternate mirrors (it'd get stuck on
the first download location)
*portage-1.8.9_pre15 (24 Feb 2002)
24 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: some fixing of
the merge code; added automatic digest generation when "digest" is in
FEATURES; made the fetch() code not depend on a pre-existing digest. This
should fix all known digest/fetch issues.
*portage-1.8.9_pre14 (23 Feb 2002)
23 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: If you have a
file that's hosted directly on our master ibiblio mirror, you can specify
it in SRC_URI as "http://mirror/myfile.tar.bz2". "http://mirror" will be
expanded to the first mirror defined in GENTOO_MIRRORS, or our master ibiblio
mirror if no mirrors are defined. Groovy. This closes bug #627.
23 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.globals, emerge,
portage.py: wget is no longer hardcoded; FETCHCOMMAND is enabled again, but
uses ${FILE} and ${URI} instead of ${x} and ${y} now. Added download
resuming, which requires the definition of RESUMECOMMAND (added to
make.globals). Updated spawn() so that when it's called as spawn(foo,free=1)
as an argument, sandboxing is turned off. Replaced all calls to
os.system(foo) with spawn(foo,free=1), since os.system() messes with signal
handling. Added a default SIGINT signal handler to portage.py so that ^C
interrupts are handled correctly (portage will immediately exit with a return
code of 1). This has been tested and works for ebuild and emerge. These
additions should also close bug #407 and #760.
23 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: spython -> python
fix; resolution of cvs merge conflict. Removed edepend assignment bug
reintroduced in Geert's commit; added comment explaining why the new code is
needed so it doesn't get removed again ;)
22 Feb 2002; Geert Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge: removed spurious cvs
conflict lines fixed bug in the cleanup code where different slots weren't
handled too well
*portage-1.8.9_pre13 (22 Feb 2002)
22 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> various: fix /bin/sh
symlink merge problems and massively simplified movefile() code. Added back
some emerge code so that "emerge --search rsync" doesn't run rsync.
*portage 1.8.9_pre12 (22 Feb 2002)
22 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: everything
should now generate *lowercase* md5sums, fixing problems with digest
backwards compatibility.
22 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: changed
position of digest generation call so that "ebuild digest" now works if the
sources have not yet been downloaded.
*portage 1.8.9_pre11 (22 Feb 2002)
22 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: unmerging now
works correctly.
*portage 1.8.9_pre10 (22 Feb 2002)
22 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: "emerge" didn't like the
new portage.py (fixed); A merge database bug (fixed). Fixing the merge bug
should also result in merges happening much faster than before, maybe up to 3
times as fast. We no longer resolve symlinks when testing protection paths.
*portage 1.8.9_pre9 (21 Feb 2002)
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: moved entirety of Portage
download/digest code from ebuild.sh (bash) to portage.py (python). No
support for custom FETCHCOMMANDs yet, but that's coming soon. Good news is
that it appears to work well and allowed some cleanups and optimizations to
doebuild(). SYNC support added. See cnf/make.conf for more info --
basically, "emerge rsync" (now callable via "emerge sync" as well) supports a
configurable "Portage server" that begins either with "rsync://" or "cvs://".
"emerge sync" is now not only a clean front-end, but a configurable front-end
to the Portage update process. I also removed dependency checking from
'ebuild'. This allowed me to removed some redundant code from portage.py,
and seemed fine to do since 'ebuild' is more and more becoming a low-level
developer tool.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org>: rewrite of cumulative USE
setting code so that the new FEATURES (what used to be called MAINTAINER) is
now cumulative and supports "-" and "-*" options. FEATURES is expanded using
all config files, while USE ignores make.globals but uses everything else.
Optimization of a couple parts of doebuild(). Upgraded expandpath() and used
it in one place where it was removed accidentally (in the new merge code.)
Master category list is now stored externally in
${PORTDIR}/profiles/categories for ease of maintenance.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge: now supports the
EMERGE_OPTS make.conf variable for enabling emerge options by default.
Closes bug #605.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: dep_match() now
works with * deps (again? Looks like the code got ripped out somehow); this
closes bug #490.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> global change from
"spython" -> "python", now that Portage is slick enough to update shared
libraries correctly.
21 Feb 2002; Grant Goodyear <g2boojum@gentoo.org> bin/chkcontents,
man/chkcontents.1: New script to compare what's in a package's CONTENTS file
with what's actually on the filesystem. Useful for discovering that a
package "collision" has occurred.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh, portage.py:
Dependencies should be no longer checked during the "unpack" stage. This
closes bug #231. Added the $KV kernel version variable to ebuild.sh so that
it's available for all ebuilds. This closes bug #599.
21 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: S now defaults
to ${WORKDIR}/${P} if it isn't defined. That's right. Defining S is now
optional :) This should eliminate around 1000 lines from our ports tree.
20 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py: Fixed some
major bugs in the new merge/config protect code. Merging and config
protection should now work.
18 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge,
ebuild.sh : Rewrote merge code. Should merge symlinks only *after* the
target has been merged (needs testing). Added lots of comments. Split
dblink.merge() into 2 new functions -- .walktree() and .mergeme().
Cleaned/optimized merging a good deal. Added special "-*" USE variable to
unset *all* USE variables defined up until that point.
18 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py, emerge,
ebuild.sh : Fixed USE bug (config.reset() threw away our cumulative USE),
streamlined turbo dep calculations by moving edb cache entry creation to
ebuild.sh. Started coding new dblink.merge() method that should be much
cleaner, faster and merge symlinks safely.
17 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py : Added
cumulative USE variable support. The final USE var is calculated
cumulatively starting with make.profile, then make.conf, and then the
environment. Any "-foo" option in USE will turn off a previously-defined USE
setting. So, if you want to use the profile-default USE settings except turn
"X" off, you add 'USE="-X"' to /etc/make.conf and that's it. This greatly
simplifies USE variable maintenance since developers can now easily add new
USE variables that default to 'on'. Simply add the USE variable and then add
it to make.profile. It will then be included in everyone's USE variables
automatically unless they explicitly "-newvar" in /etc/make.conf or in the
local environment. This also enables easy one-shot disabling of USE
variables. For example, to merge xchat without GNOME support (when "gnome"
is in your /etc/make.conf USE variable), simply type "USE="-gnome" emerge
net-irc/xchat". This is a lot easier than temporarily tweaking
/etc/make.conf.
17 Feb 2002: Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge : Added a quick hack
to cache ebuild dependency info using extended attributes on XFS filesystems.
Gives a factor of 10 speedup for dependency calculations. Will look into a
generic caching solution that should offer similar performance increases on
all filesystems. Note: the fact that this hack is on CVS means that emerge
is currently in a hyper-experimental state and shouldn't be used right now.
16 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge : added support for 'emerge
cat/pkg-version' instead of always having to require 'emerge cat/pkg'
15 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge : reimplemented the display
of cleaned packages to clearly show all versions that are about to be removed
and which versions are going to stay
13 Feb 2002; D.Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge :
added --emptytree option
13 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py :
fixed little bug where emerge --clean rsync wasn't correctly handled anymore
implemented all new functionalities of emerge --clean, this adds --slots,
--versions and --all options together with world and system modes
12 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py :
changed emerge --zap to emerge --clean
removed parts of the already implemented slots functionality to be able to
fall back to a more flexible implementation. Binary compatible slots will now
mostly influence emerge during the --clean operation
12 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added fallback check in case UNMERGE_DELAY hasn't been defined in
make.globals or make.conf
*portage 1.8.9_pre8 (18 Feb 2002)
12 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
changed the rebuild code to use depgraph instead, dramatically reducing code
duplication
11 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
changed indentation of a code part that wasn't at the right level. It got the
count of the non slot packages during --zap completely wrong
*portage 1.8.9_pre7 (11 Feb 2002)
11 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
fixed bug in packagetree.dep_match() where a ~ dependency is returned as a
string instead of as a list
11 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
- removed support for --all and world in 'emerge --unmerge', by default now
all matching packages are removed since with the new slots functionality
old package versions should not exists anymore
- colored package name red too when a blocking package is found during
pretend operation
- changed emerge invocation arguments to be in a new universal interface
format this has been decided to be :
'emerge --action --option --option [packageset]'
some features however don't respect this, but that's since they are not
package installation related and are easier to use as straight commands
eg: emerge rsync
- added UNMERGE_DELAY var to make.globals and support it in emerge to obtain
the number of seconds to wait
- support for NOCOLOR="yes" as wel as NOCOLOR="true"
- major speedups for emerge -search
- added formatted package descriptions of the matches from emerge --search
that nicely wrap at 80 chars
- rewrote retrieval of package descriptions to support descriptions that are
specified on multiple lines
- added support for 'noslot' to --zap, --update and --rebuild
11 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> sandbox.c, libsandbox.c :
added checks to see if the files where information is written to are really
regular files and not symlinks
*portage 1.8.9_pre6 (10 Feb 2002)
10 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added support for 'emerge --unmerge world' which removes all old package
versions from the system
made 'emerge --unmerge' take binary compatibility slots into account, this
prevents that packages with different versions but also different slots, are
being unmerged
added support for "--verbose" in "emerge rebuild" and "emerge world" to
provide details about packages that aren't in the local tree anymore and to
notify the user about which packages don't support slots
9 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added support for the rebuild mode which rebuilds all the packages on your
system for which a corresponding package could be found in to portage tree
9 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
renamed getEbuildPaths() or vartree to getebuildpaths()
fixed bug in the merging of binary packages
7 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> xpack.py :
added additional argument to tbz2.getfile() which allows default content to
be provided when the requested file couldn't be found in the tbz2 archive
7 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh :
added SLOT information as the third entry in the temporary deps file that is
generated during ebuild depend,
7 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
obtain SLOT information from the deps file instead of using the slotgrab()
function, removed slotgrab() function, updated some comments
7 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added SLOT information to the generated edepend var for binary packages
*portage 1.8.9_pre5 (6 Feb 2002)
6 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
fixed bugs where the old instance wasn't unmerged correctly if slots are
identical, but ebuild version numbers not
6 Feb 2002; Grant Goodyear <g2boojum@gentoo.org> cnf/make.conf :
Copied proxy lines from make.globals (bug 431).
6 Feb 2002; Vitaly Kushneriuk <vitaly@gentoo.org> portage.py :
added missing SLOT param to merge(...).
*portage 1.8.9_pre4 (6 Feb 2002)
6 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
fixed some bugs in the handling of PROVIDES and virtual packages together
with slots, they used code that wasn't upudated to the new dblink constructor
virtuals now use "" as slot, resulting in normally to same behaviour as what
has been done before.
5 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
sorted the packages to unmerge since this makes package names with revision
endings appear before plain version numbers. This makes the unmerge code
first remove the old and non slot aware packages before removing the newer
alternative which is in fact exactly the same apart from the revision
identifier.
*portage 1.8.9_pre3 (5 Feb 2002)
5 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
only let the backward compatibility algorithm kick in during unmerge since
it's impossible to correctly detect is in general.
*portage 1.8.9_pre2 (5 Feb 2002)
5 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
fixed bug in the backward compatibility algorithm
*portage 1.8.9_pre1 (5 Feb 2002)
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh, emerge, portage.py :
added binary compatibility slots, this also contains additional code to keep
the unmerging of packages backwards compatible.
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
added back support for the "ebuild help" command which seems to have
disappeared somewhere along the updates
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> make.conf, make.globals :
added description and default entry for the imlib USE variable
added flag to prozilla to disable prozilla's waiting for a user's keypress
when a failure occurs
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> output.py :
bugfix, write read() function instead of red(), doh !
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge, portage.py :
implemented the ! dependency which prevents incompatible packages to be
installed on the same system at the same time
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
most emerge invocation options now have alternative short flags
4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
emerge now doesn't unmerge the last version of an installed version by
default anymore, to really remove all instanced of packages the --all flag
has to be used, the --safe flag is deprecated
3 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> output.py, emerge,make.globals :
all output can now be turned to black and white by using the functions in
output.py, this determines the mode by checking to NOCOLOR variable in
make.conf or make.globals
3 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
made it possible to run emerge --help and --search as non root
*portage 1.8.8-r1 (1 Feb 2002)
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py, ebuild.sh, ebuild.5 :
added support for a pkg_setup() function which is executed before anything
else and can be typically used for package configuration actions or required
system checks
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
implemented the noauto MAINTAINER flags for all relevant ebuild commands
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
make env-update disregard backup files
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added --pretend support instead of interactively asking to proceed,
also added a delay before unmerging though to be sure
*portage 1.8.8 (1 Feb 2002)
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added --safe switch to complement the --unmerge option
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
rewrote the packagename without category support to also graceously handle
deps specifiers at the beginning, this shouldn't be used in the ebuilds, but
are very handy when using emerge --unmerge
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added emerge --unmerge support
1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
added packagename without category support in the dep_match function
*portage 1.8.7 (30 Jan 2002)
30 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
integrated and slightly adapted Brent Rahn's code to support package names
without category
30 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh :
integrated and fixed Azarah's patch to fix the wrongly generated archive size
in the digests
*portage 1.8.6-r3 (28 Jan 2002)
28 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
disabled warnings about non existant config file paths
28 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> emerge :
added verwilst pkgsearch code, which was turned into a seperate class and
refactored for clarity and execution speed
28 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> portage.py :
renamed _xxx vars to _prepart in Vitaly's code addition
*portage 1.8.6-r2 (27 Jan 2002)
24 Jan 2002; Vitaly Kushneriuk <vitaly@gentoo.org> portage.py :
Fixed version compare code Also added test script to test future versions.
*portage 1.8.6-r1 (24 Jan 2002)
24 Jan 2002; Karl Trygve Kalleberg <karltk@gentoo.org> dojar:
Fixed typos.
*portage 1.8.6 (23 Jan 2002)
22 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> libsandbox.c :
added an additional check for SANDBOX_ON to optimize the speed in the execvp
function call. Also removed error messages being printed when the PATH var
isn't set.
20 Jan 2002; Karl Trygve Kalleberg <karltk@gentoo.org> dojar :
added dojar shell command as a java JAR handler
17 Jan 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
The package chosen by "emerge sys-apps/shadow" now matches that chosen in an
emerge update or emerge system. I forgot to add some "*" dep code to the
dep_nomatch() method; this is now fixed.
*portage 1.8.5 (13 Jan 2002)
13 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> ebuilds.sh, portage.py:
added fine grained maintainer settings
*portage 1.8.4 (13 Jan 2002)
12 Jan 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
"emerge sys-apps/bash/" now works. (trailing "/" stripped to make
tab-completion users happy) This fixes bug #119
12 Jan 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
Portage should no longer bomb out if the current working directory doesn't
exist (has been deleted from underneath).
12 Jan 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
added "--world" option for "emerge update". This tells Portage to update
the base system *as well as* upgrade any packages that are currently
installed but have new versions available. This is your standard full system
update command. This fixes bug #122
12 Jan 2002; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
Added an expandpath() cache which speeds up merging dramatically.
*portage 1.8.3 (11 Jan 2002)
11 Jan 2002; Mikael Hallendal <hallski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh:
added functions econf and einstall. Also made src_compile having a default
implementation.
*portage 1.8.2 (07 Jan 2002)
07 Jan 2002; G.Bevin <gbevin@gentoo.org> :
sandbox included in portage
*portage 1.8.1 (30 Dec 2001)
29 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
"emerge update" is now functional! Although the algorithm really should be
sound, it is still considered in testing since we may need to tweak some
dependencies.
27 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
Removed objprelink from the default USE variable.
*portage 1.8.0 (22 Dec 2001)
22 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> :
I messed up the "transparent .so library" update. Included is the correct
fix, which seems to allow glibc to update on my system without any tricks.
I just merged a new glibc while in X, without using any of glibc's old
pkg_postinst/pkg_preinst hacks.
21 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> make.defaults.5, make.conf.5 :
Moved make.defaults.5 to make.conf.5 and updated contents.
*portage 1.7.8 (21 Dec 2001)
21 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
ebuild install doesn't throw away the compile directory if ebuild has been
changed and MAINTAINER is set; we now use mv -f to move files into location
on the filesystem, making our library install method even more robust. It
should now be totally safe to upgrade glibc while in X and playing music
with xmms and surfing the Web and compiling 20 applications at once :)
* portage 1.7.7 (14 Dec 2001)
14 Dec 2001; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org>: portage.py :
movefile() now unlink()s the destination file first which solves shared
library install problems.
* portage 1.7.6 (13 Dec 2001)
10 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
env_update() now generates an /etc/csh.env file in csh shell format.
* portage 1.7.5 (13 Dec 2001)
10 Dec 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
added a little fix so a ~ dep isn't satisfied by a *much* later installed
version; i.e. ~media-libs/freetype-1.3.1 satisfied by
media-libs/freetype-2.0.5 being installed.
30 Nov 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild :
added a KeyboardInterrupt handler so ^C'ing a running ebuild process doesn't
produce a Python traceback.
* portage 1.7.4 (29 Nov 2001)
29 Nov 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
removed an unnecessary quirk in the code preventing virtual packages from
being in any other category but "virtual".
25 Nov 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> emerge :
info file detection code has been improved.
* portage 1.7.3 (20 Nov 2001)
20 Nov 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> pdb, pdb.cgi, xpak :
used /usr/bin/python instead of /usr/bin/spython. Fixed.
* portage 1.7.2 (13 Nov 2001)
13 Nov 2001; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org> :
emake will now try to build in parallel, and if it fails, will retry in
non-parallel mode.
13 Nov 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh :
an ebuild that used an archive with a name that was part of another archive
would cause Portage to mess up the digest check. No longer.
31 Oct 2001; Donny Davies <woodchip@gentoo.org> make.conf, make.globals :
comments about merging the fetch programs before trying to use them.
* portage 1.7.1 (30 Oct 2001)
30 Oct 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
I accidentally broke "=" deps by being sloppy when I added "*" deps. Trivial
fix applied.
* portage 1.7 (29 Oct 2001)
29 Oct 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
strange typo fix in the empty() digraph method.
* portage 1.6.12 (29 Oct 2001)
29 Oct 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
"*" deps now implemented. "=sys/foo-1*" matches the latest 1.x version/rev of
sys/foo, but will not match a 2.x version.
26 Oct 2001; Daniel Robbins <drobbins@gentoo.org> portage.py :
various new categories added.
Portage 1.6.11, released 18 Oct 2001
====================================
*portage.py; device nodes are now not unmerged at all.
Portage 1.6.10, released 18 Oct 2001
===================================
*ebuild.sh: A and AA fix; now any A="foo" lines in the ebuild are ignored,
allowing ebuilds with them to continue working.
*portage.py: remove gnome-apps, gnome-office, gnome-libs, add gnome-extra
categories.
*ebuild.sh, portage.py: You can now use USE variables in SRC_URI to
conditionally include archives. In MAINTAINER mode, all archives are
automatically included so that maintainers can check SRC_URIs and also
generate complete digests. A new file-based DEPEND and RDEPEND-passing
mechanism has been added.
*ebuild.sh Now adds filesize to the digest files
Portage 1.6.9, released 15 Sep 2001
===================================
*portage.py
unmerge() now does not touch device nodes. Unlinking them or touching them
in any way is bad practice.
Portage 1.6.8, released 12 Sep 2001
===================================
*portage.py
movefile() will now unlink() destfile if it is a symlink. Should fix
problems where file gets created at symlink target rather than replacing
the symlink.
*queryhost.sh (agriffis)
Parallel pinging and other fixes.
Portage 1.6.7, released 05 Sep 2001
===================================
*portage.py
(last-minute fix)
CONFIG_PROTECT unmerge protection is now observed for symlinks, fifos and
device nodes.
*portage.py
Fixes for unmerging CONFIG_PROTECTed files. Protected files are now *not*
unlinked from the filesystem. Messier but safer, and simplifies package
upgrades.
*emerge
Emerge output cleanups for GNU info directory generation. New --verbose
mode; new CONFIG_PROTECT scanning feature to let people know when there are
config files to be updated. New "--help config" docs to explain how to
do it.
Portage 1.6.6, released 01 Sep 2001
====================================
*portage.py
Upgraded directory merging over existing objects. Existing symlinks that
point to existing directories will be kept and used as is; directories will
be used as-is; any other objects (broken symlinks, files) will be copied
to origfilename.backup and a ne directory will be created in its place.
Portage 1.6.5, released 31 Aug 2001
====================================
*emerge
Fixes for handling multiple ebuilds, packages and/or dependencies on
the command-line.
*portage.py
An optimization to the digraph class so that the firstzero() method finds
matches in close to the order that keys were added to the digraph.
