558e9179b8 Changed -O option to -P
Realized -P would make a better option letter.

c07caae18d Corrected a typo in the last revision (r786).
The last revision's commit message also should have ended with 'obsolete
packages' rather than 'obsolete sources'.

ff5d028f1f Renamed/revised remove_obsolete_packages() and added -O option
This revision converts remove_obsolete_packages() to
remove_uninstalled_packages() to better reflect what it currently
actually does and makes other minor revisions related to it. It also
adds a command line option (-O) to access this function. It's still
mnemonic with 'obsolete' because we're running out of option letters and
the function may yet be modified to remove obsolete sources.

0b89dd392f Modified get_source_names() to fix remove_obsolete_sources().
remove_obsolete_sources() uses data from get_source_names() to determine
whether a source is obsolete or not and was missing at least one atypical
package. Thanks to Chess for discussion and review.

Incidentally, this revision also finishes reordering the menu I started to
reorder in r771. It also tweaks the ChangeLog beyond just noting this
revision.

a314a8d37d tweak the logic to determine ARCH; modify some evals and conditionals for ARCH (including removing an unset ARCH) in check_for_updates and info_item; thanks to slakmagik for his help and suggestions with the patch, including adding the redirects to /dev/null 2010-05-20 18:03:55 +00:00

29f3ec72eb Added a '?' argument to the -V flag and modified manpage and help output
This allows the user to invoke sbopkg with '-V ?' to get a list of valid
repo/branches and allows us to suggest that in the manpage and help output.
This was we don't have to keep up with manually itemizing the valid options.
Part of this change pops out a pre-existing block of code and turns it into
list_repos().

79adfa16a7 add an explanation to sbopkg.8 man page about why 'su -' is strongly encouraged instead of just 'su'; we can change this to 'now required' if we make other changes requiring 'su -' but I wanted to at least get some sort of explanation we can point to if folks have issues with 'su'. 2010-05-12 20:31:21 +00:00

e12fea7b87 Fix issue 46 (and issue 44, hopefully this time for real).
"When in doubt use brute force." The timid line in r770 could result in rm
spitting errors. Thanks to Mauro for the right line. Corrected a typo while I
was at it.

1bda5605aa Fixed issue 45 (problem detecting packages with '+' in the name).
Converted an egrep in info_item() into a grep to avoid issues with '+' being a
metacharacter.

Also removed stale lines (since r631) from gen_search_package() and
string_search(). Also added a couple of credits to the ChangeLog.

904d98dd15 Modified "Build options" dialog. Misc minor fixes.
Changed the menu order of the "Build options" dialog to default to using
"Saved" options rather than "None" on the theory that, if a user has
saved options, he will more likely want to use them than not.

Removed a commented-out block and made an assignment more consistent.
Brought the add_item_to_queue() comments more in line with its code.
Changed the filename value of GSNFILE so it gets caught by cleanup().
Fixed a typo.

59ac74efb1 Fail gracefully when there's an error computing a pkg repo version.
Sometimes sbopkg can't determine the version of a package. For example,
the google-chrome script looks at the source archive to determine it, and
such archive can very well be unavailable.
This patch makes sbopkg intercept the error condition and notify it to
the user gracefully, while at the same time falling back to trusting the
version provided in the .info file.
Thanks to alkos333 for the bug report.

246d57fe2e queue_dir_lister() tweaks.
Small improvements:
- reduce the number of times the queue directory is scanned
- drop a wrong 'continue' in the error path
- allow having a QUEUEDIR that is a symlink to the actual directory
- improve file cleanup.

e75ec7e845 fix failure to remove sources in get_source_names() ( issue 34 )
This is a band-aid which explicitly enables all flash-player-plugin sources to
be removed by testing for its names. It also fixes more general issues with
some SRCNAMEs not containing the VERSION number and get_source_names()
sometimes emitting bare newlines in cases where it should emit nothing at all.

This patch also modifies a regex in remove_sources_for_app() and adds unrelated
comments to string_search().

Thanks to artourter for the report, Chess for review, and Mauro for review and
suggestions.
