possibly be a couple of bugs. Make sure to do your backups as always,
and have fun. :)
overall, pkgdb(3):
- The DEPORIGIN information is fully supported. Most stale
dependencies are automatically fixed based on that.
Hinted by: sobomax
- Disregard a package if it has a file named "+IGNOREME" in the
package directory.
PR: ports/41237
Hinted by: Jerry Murdock <j@jerrymurdock.com>, and some others
pkgdb(1):
- Add a new option -a/auto, used with -F/--fix, which turns on
automatic mode, in which pkgdb(1) only fixes discrepancies that can
be fixed 100% obviously and securely, and leaves the others.
- Make pkgdb(1) less verbose when -v is not specified.
portupgrade(1):
- Time the whole session also.
Requested by: nork
- Fix a bug in shellwords() where it wrongly interprets \ in '...' as
meta-character. This bug or maybe feature was inherited from Perl's
shellwords.pl / Text::ParseWords.
Reported by: Gabriel Ambuehl <gabriel_ambuehl@buz.ch>
- The DEPORIGIN information is fully supported. It fixes DEPORIGIN
when a package is upgraded with a different port using -o/--origin,
and "pkgdb -aF" is automatically called at closing. This makes
portupgrade a tad slower but greatly reduces the "pkgdb -F"
annoyance.
- Fix a race where it rarely failed in updating the pkgdb after
installation and the user had to run "pkgdb -fu".
- Do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling portsclean -L. Now
the pkgdb updater's indicator is displayed properly.
- Synchronize the build failure checker with the latest version of
ports/Tools/portbuild/scripts/processlogs.
- Do not bother with +REQUIRED_BY files when they are mechanically
generated from @pkgdep information by pkgdb(1).
pkg_fetch(1):
- Try .tgz first on FreeBSD 4.x and prior. Although .tbz is smaller,
there are few sites that prepare .tbz packages for FreeBSD 4.x.
pkgtools.conf(5)
- Prepare a new constant OS_PKGBRANCH, which is set to a
release/branch name that is suitable for specifying a FTP packages
directory, and make pkg_site_mirror() use it.

portsclean(1):
- Suggest using libchk(1) to help manually clean out lib/compat/pkg.
- Improve messages. Use the word "shadow" to say that a library hides
another one with the same name.
- Fix a bug where portupgrade creates packages in a wrong directory.
This was introduced in 20020921.
Submitted by: "Dmitry A. Panov" <redfox@Fluffy.Khv.RU>
- Make portcvsweb <pkgname> work when it is an obsoleted package.
- Update documents.
- Respect PKG_SUFX, which could be defined in /etc/make.conf or as an
environment variable.
- Drop the pkg_tarup(1) dependency in favor of pkg_create(1) -b, and
mark IGNORE for systems which pkg_create(1) does not support -b.
On those systems such as 4.4-STABLE and prior, users can either
a) update pkg_* tools or b) stick with portupgrade-20020920 +
pkg_tarup-1.2_3.
- Remove the workaround against somewhat old 5-CURRENT's buggy
bsd.*.mk.
- Improve zsh/bash/tcsh completion definitions. (not much for tcsh,
though..)
portupgrade(1):
- Time each build, install, upgrade, etc. and show times
when -v/--verbose is specified.
[Requested by: people on freenode:#freebsd]
pkgdb(1):
- Extend pkgdb(1)'s -o so it can also modify a port's origin.
[Requested by: dcs]
- Raise an error when an empty pkgname is given with -s.
pkgtools.conf(5):
- Make MAKE_ARGS accept a proc.
[Suggested by: alane]
miscellaneous:
- Now all the tools including portupgrade(1) should work on
lang/ruby_static as well as lang/ruby_static-devel again.
- Completion definitions for zsh and bash are even slightly
improved.
- Fix the regexp for uname output so it can parse such as
"5.0-CURRENT-YYYYMMDD-JPSNAP".

- portupgrade(1): Add more command failure checks in case sudo fails.

each upgrade.
o Fix wording and update the descriptions about portsclean -L.
portsclean(1):
- Fix wording and update the descriptions about -L.
portsclean(1):

added.
portupgrade(1):
- Call portsclean -L at the end of each upgrade.
pkg_deinstall(1):
- Show the results more precisely.
- -P: Only preserve real FreeBSD shared libraries, determined by
file(1).
- -P: Move preserved shared libraries to $LOCALBASE/lib/compat/pkg.

- Check the file/directory permissions on the INDEX file before
generating a new INDEX.

- Make automatic portsdb directory selection in the case of "portsdb
-fu" too.

- Add a note that a user must run portsdb -Ufu to reflect values of
EXTRA_CATEGORIES and IGNORE_CATEGORIES.
For the victims of the above bug, please run "portsdb -qu" and then
"portupgrade -q portupgrade".
20020225.
- Clarify that portupgrade -O is disregarded if -r or -R is given.
- Reflect the fact that INDEX.rbo no longer exists.
- Document portsdb(1) better regarding PORTS_DBDIR.
- Merge INDEX.rbo into INDEX.db, and remove INDEX.rbo on portsdb
rebuild if it exists.
- Reduce the size of INDEX.db by half. :)
- Introduce PORTS_DBDRIVER and allow specifying a db driver for the
portsdb (INDEX.db), and switch the default portsdb driver from
db1.85 hash to db1.85 btree.
Add more caching to improve the performance of simple commands.
Bump version to 2.7.0 (should have done this last time)
Belatedly update copyright dates.
- Fix a bug where it referenced the obsoleted PortsDB::PORTS_DIR.
- Depend on ruby-bdb1 and make bdb1_btree (db 1.85 btree) the default
pkgdb driver/format. This probably fixes the problem where pkgdb is
unexpectedly broken and rebuilt from scratch.
- Support pkgdb driver fallback. (bdb -> bdb1 -> dbm)
- Show the pkgdb driver (format) on updating/rebuilding.
