Version 5.2 - 18 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi: o --buildrequires deprecate --src, --src is kept for compatibility but its behaviour is changed a little (it doesn't download src.rpm anymore) o --install-src as user now works for remote medium o --install-src will remove succesfully installed src.rpm from /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/* (unless post-clean is 0) - urpmf: o add special code for --files simple case, it makes urpmf 3x faster for this often used case o display a warning when searching "xxx(yyy)" since it is handled as a regexp and so the parentheses are useless. suggest using --literal - urpmq: o add --provides o fix option -a : display packages of all compatible archs (#36942) - all tools: o deprecate --curl and --wget in favor of --downloader curl and --downloader --wget o fix displaying error message when failing to lock (regression in 5.1) Version 5.1 - 16 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmf, urpmq: o fix using xml info files with spaces in medium name - urpmf: o fix --license - urpmq: o add --sourcerpm o deprecate "urpmq --requires", "urpmq -R" and "urpmq -RR" o fix --list (regression introduced in 5.0) (#36742) Version 5.0 - 11 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmf, urpmq: o use xml info instead of hdlist when possible o "urpmq -l" is faster (3x) o "urpmf -l" is slower (1.5x) o "urpmf --sourcerpm" is much faster o see "xml-info" option in urpmi.cfg(5) to see when those files are downloaded o new require: perl module XML::LibXML - urpmq: o use rpm file instead of hdlist/xml-info when file is local o use URPM::Package->changelogs (need perl-URPM 3.06) - urpmf o fix an *old* bug (since december 2002) making urpmf keeps parsed hdlist files in memory (was fixed for multitags, but not for simple tags) - all tools: o replace /var/lib/urpmi/MD5SUM with /var/lib/urpmi/MD5SUM. (this will allow checking xml media_info is up-to-date even if we don't update it at the same time as synthesis is updated) - urpmi.update, urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.removemedia: o drop hdlist support replaced with xml media_info (this imply file-deps are correctly handled, see genhdlist2(1)) o drop option "-c" which used to clean /var/cache/urpmi/headers o enhancement: only parse updated synthesis - urpmi.addmedia o do check md5sum of downloaded synthesis (the check was only done on urpmi.update) o new --xml-info option - urpmi: o do remove __db* on priority-upgrade (fix regression introduced in 4.10.15) o always prompt before doing a priority-upgrade transaction, even if there is only one priority upgrade package (since there will be more packages to install after restarting urpmi) Version 4.10.19 - 12 December 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi: o fix handling "post-clean: 0" in urpmi.cfg (#36082, regression introduced in 4.10.16) - library: o urpm::media::read_config() doesn't read urpmi.cfg global options anymore, use urpm->get_global_options or urpm->new_parse_cmdline Version 4.10.18 -

drop translated man pages (they are too old) - urpmi.addmedia: o exit code 1 when a medium can't be added o enhance parsing of urls with login:password for logins with "@" so that password doesn't end up in urpmi.cfg o adapt to perl-URPM 3.00 API to parse pubkey files (nb: $urpm->{keys} is not used anymore) Version 4.10.17 - 30 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi: o fix regression introduced in 4.10.15: "urpmi --force valid invalid" should warn about "invalid" but still install "valid" Version 4.10.16 - 28 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi: o small transactions should have at least 8 packages (ie --split-length is now 8 by default) o do not do a big transaction if installing less than 20 packages (ie --split-level is now 1 by default) - urpmq: o new option --requires-recursive (alias of option -d) o bugfix previous release: "urpmq --fuzzy foo" should display all "*foo*" matches Version 4.10.15 - 26 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - all tools: o exit with code 1 after displaying usage (instead of exit code 0) - urpmi: o with rsync, use --copy-links (to have the same behaviour as http/ftp, and so allow symlinks on the server) o fix "urpmi --install-src" (regression introduced in 4.10.9) (#35164) o fix --limit-rate (regression introduced in 4.9.12) o --auto-update is quite unsafe, but at least now it should be cleaner (ensure $urpm doesn't have media twice) (#36134) Version 4.10.14 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - library: o urpm::media::add_distrib_media: add option "only_updates" for rpmdrake Version 4.10.13 - 3 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi o remove prefix/var/lib/rpm/__db* after installing pkgs rooted Version 4.10.12 - 27 September 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpm::media::update_media: o ensure a second pass is done even if media has not been modified (useful for the %trigger trick done in urpmi to rebuild synthesis with suggests) -

13 August 2007, by Thierry Vignaud - gurpmi: o reuse common shared code of urpmi/rpmdrake o umount removable media as soon as possible o unlock RPM & URPMI dbs locks as soon as possible like rpmdrake - urpmi o when using --urpmi-root, load /etc/rpm/macros o enable GUIes to display already installed & not installable RPMs o enable GUIes to display uninstallations - urpmi.cfg o really add global option no-suggests Version 4.10.1 - 12 August 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - library o urpm::select: new function get_preferred() replacing sort_choices() (for drakx) Version 4.10.0 - 11 August 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - new major release (motivation: urpmi has many new features) -

Version 4.9.2 - 24 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - bug fix release: - /foo/@86875:bar.src.rpm is not a url with protocol /foo/@86875 - /foo/chroot_tmp/... is not a url with protocol /foo/chroot Version 4.9.1 - 23 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - cleanup locks handling, log locking, and don't say "urpmi database locked" when it's the rpm database that is locked - urpmi: o add --nokeep (which overrides urpmi.cfg global option "keep") Version 4.9.0 - 22 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux - urpmi: o don't fork on multiple transactions o fix buggy print "::logger_id::" (#27026) - gurpmi2 (tvignaud): o fix unvisible content o prevent a dialog to have a height of several scores of thousands pixels o add support of --root - urpmi.update: o don't write urpmi.cfg unless really needed o don't write md5sum in urpmi.cfg (bugfix) - urpmi.addmedia: o drop support for "list" file (now you must have a hdlist/synthesis on remote server) o drop support for searching recursively rpms when there is no hdlist/synthesis. Only search in given directory (ie $url/*.rpm) o do not use list. to store passwords, use /etc/urpmi/netrc instead. Also do have the url in urpmi.cfg, only the password is removed o change the format of list., it contains only rpm files relative to the medium url o deprecate "... with ". It is not useful anymore (nb: if you want to force using hdlist or synthesis, use --probe-hdlist or --probe-synthesis) o don't write urpmi.cfg twice o do not look for hdlist/synthesis in ../media_info/hdlist$suffix.cz (nb: with media.cfg, it will still use hdlist from media/media_info/, but it will simply use the hdlist$suffix.cz given by media.cfg ) o --norebuild is by default (and deprecated): when the local hdlist/synthesis is buggy, do not discard it and go searching for *.rpm. Make it an error instead o fix building synthesis when using *.rpm (ie no hdlist/synthesis) - urpmi.removemedia: much faster (since it doesn't parse hdlist/synthesis anymore) - handle "empty" hdlist/synthesis - generate names. only when the medium is created/updated - major splitting of urpm.pm in many modules - major splitting of functions in smaller functions (eg: update_media was 988 lines long, has been splitted in functions shorter than 105 lines) - big code cleanup/rework - perl_checker compliance (very useful for such big code rework)
