* No need to recurse @pkgdep search, really.
* Support the latest pkg_tarup.
* Backup +REQUIRED_BY a bit earlier, just in case.
* If it fails to copy the new +REQUIRED_BY to the package's dbdir,
emit a message and save the file in TMPDIR.
portupgrade:
- Fix a bug that -s/--sort didn't work. D'oh!
- Make -u/--uninstall fail-safe. It backs up old
installations with the help of pkg_tarup and restores on
installation failure.
- Show option errors more gracefully.
- Die on signals more gracefully.
portversion:
- Show option errors more gracefully.
- Die on signals more gracefully.
This is a milestone release for me. Enjoy. :>
portupgrade changes:
- Implement -s/--sort which sorts packages in the dependency order.
- Implement -R/--upward-recursive, and get -r/--recursive working for
upgrading as well. (Finally!)
- Add -DBATCH to the make fetch' commandline to prevent ports from
dumbly waiting for user input.
Greatly inspired by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it> (Thanks!!)
portversion changes:
- Make command output optimal by using portupgrade's -s option.
- Report possible ports' Makefile breakage.

(He suggested -e, but I prefered -F)
Show what version a package is upgraded to to help a user decide
whether to upgrade or not.

Resurrect portversion for what it's worth as a reference code. The
problems that kept it from working has been addressed and will
hopefully be fixed soon. :)
does handle versions correctly.
By the way, I'll have to find a workaround for the ruby's thread
vs. libc_r (stdio/malloc) problem exposed by portversion... Hmm.

* portupgrade: Change the timing of the invocation of the
beforebuild command so that "portupgrade -B'cvs update' foo" works.

2001-03-23 04:06 knu
* portversion: Fix the implication of a '*'. (portversion -v did
nothing ;)

* pkgdb.rb: Skip packages with illegal names showing an informative
message rather than dying of an error.
Reported by: Ollivier Robert <roberto@eurocontrol.fr>
the Porter's Handbook compliant version of pkg_version with a little
bit better performance and better usability.
2001-03-22 06:13 knu
* README, portupgrade, misc/zsh/_portupgrade: Add a couple of new
options: -A [command to run after each installation] -B
[command to run before each build]
2001-03-22 05:49 knu
* README, install.rb, portversion, misc/zsh/_portversion: Add
portversion.
2001-03-22 05:43 knu
* portupgrade: Use make(1) arguments specified with -m for "make -V
PKGNAME" too.
Ignore the difference of the name parts when it compares the
package versions.
2001-03-22 05:36 knu
* misc/zsh/_portupgrade: Add a missing closing bracket.
- Use Dir.entries(dir).each instead of Dir.glob(dir) so it does not
hit the just installed packages.
- Add -p option. [make package as well when each port is installed]
(Requested by: Ollivier Robert <roberto@eurocontrol.fr>)
- Sort options in alphabetical order.
It upgrades ports without reinstalling dependent packages by directly
modifying the package info recorded in the files under /var/db/pkg.
e.g.
portupgrade gtk
portupgrade -cC gnome\*
It currently has many design flaws (to me at least) but I am releasing
this because it's functionally stable enough to use. (I believe.. ;)
Use with care, at your own risk.
