Pacman 5.1 removes the symlink to the current directory for built
packages. This causes Yay to break for people who have set an external
PKGDEST.
Pacman 5.1 also brings an improved --packagelist option. This makes
it much simpler to find where packages will be placed. Hence this fix
also simplifies the code.
Yay has an -Sc option to clear it's cache. If using an external PKGDEST
this is now mostly useful for clearing out old pkgbuilds and sources.
paccache should be used for cleaning build packages.
We do not offer a provider menu for already installed packages. For
example if you already have yay installed then yay -S yay will just
reinstall yay. No prompt will be given for yay-git or yay-bin.
Therefore it makes sense to disable provider searching for these
packages. Expecially because it is the slowest part of dependency
resolving and many already installed packages are going to be resolved
when using -u.
The previous warning system would show warnings recursivley for all
packages being resolved. While I like this, other have complained at it
being overly verbose.
Either way the main purpose of this is to allow warnings to be printed
before the upgrade menu shows. This is mostly just to get a usable
warning system.
This may change if a better solution is found.
Targets are used for tracking wether a package should be marked as
explicitly installed or as a dependency. This is not ideal because you
can have a target such as java-environment that resolves to a different
package.
Therefore Targets are now used only for the initial dependency resolving
and checking for missing dependencies. The Explicit set is now used to
mark what packages are explicit, seperate from the targets.
When upgrading multiple packages that are already installed we should
not conflict with already installed packages that are in the depPool.
This is because the version in the depTree is going to replace the
currently installed version of the package and may have different
conflicts.
If there is a conflict between stuff in the depPool these should be
handled by the innerConflicts check anyway.
The warnings were moved down to after the upgrade menu, mainly because
it is a lot easier to do this way, it may get moved back if it can be
done in a non hacky way,
Sort the provider menu alphabetically. Always ensure direct matches show
up first. This ensures hitting enter for the default value will always
be the same package that the user/dependency requested if an exact match
exists.
If a package is already installed pick that instead of providing a menu.
Ensure duplicates do not show up in the menu.
We dont check the dependencies of things already installed becuase,
well, they're already installed. But we should check the dependencies of
targets even if they are installed because they get reinstalled.
MakeOnly would be set to true when moving from normal deps to make deps
But would incorrectly stay set to true when moving to the deps of the
following packages.
depOrder.Aur now only holds one package from each base like
depCatagories does.
This is a rewrite of the dependency system, It aims to be cleaner
written, with a better idea of what is needed from the start, meaning
less new code being hacked on for things that were not thought about.
This version also aims to use as many small functions as possible, for
cleaner code and better testing.
Added dep.go:
general dependency functions
Added depPool.go:
Replacement of depTree, dependencies were never ordered so
a tree did not really make sense. Instead the term pool
makes more sense.
Added depOrder.go:
Replacement of depCatagories, This simply orders the
dependencies, dependencies are still catagorized as repo and AUR
but I believe this to be a better name
Added depCheck.go:
Replaces conflicts.go and also contains the missing dependency
code
This version is mostly the same as the old version with a few
improvments:
Missing packages will print the full dependency tree
Versioned dependency checking errors should be fixed
Make depends should be calculated properly
Experimental AUR provide searcher
This code has been added along side the old code for testing and is not
currently used by the install process. Once the install process is moved
to use this code, the old code will be removed.
