* daemon: Handle new request B_MESSAGE_COMMIT_TRANSACTION. It activates
and deactivates given sets of packages. The new packages must be
placed in a directory in the administrative directory. The daemon
moves them to the packages directory and the deactivated packages to
a subdirectory it creates. It also save the old activation state
there.
* Add private BActivationTransaction, describing an activation change
transaction.
* BDaemonClient: Add CommitTransaction(), which sends a given
BActivationTransaction as a B_MESSAGE_COMMIT_TRANSACTION request to
the daemon.
Completely untested yet.
Also add several checks in the package-info parser to enforce the
<alphanum_underscore> requirement of package/resolvable names and
version components.
* ... to avoid confusion with the preRelease property. It's also called
"revision" in the HaikuPorts recipes.
* Update libsolv package. Was necessary due to the BPackageVersion
change, but also includes a few more changes.
* Rename PackageDaemonDefs.h to DaemonDefs.h.
* Replace the MESSAGE_GET_PACKAGES by the new
B_MESSAGE_GET_INSTALLATION_LOCATION_INFO, which not only returns the
packages, but also other information about the installation location.
* daemon: Volume: Implement a change count which is bumped whenever
packages are activated/deactivated/added/removed. Cache the reply
for a location info request, using the change count to check whether
it is still up-to-date.
* Add private BDaemonClient for communication with the daemon.
* BRoster:
- Add GetInstallationLocationInfo() using BDaemonClient.
- Reimplement GetActivePackages(), using
GetInstallationLocationInfo().
* Implement copy-on-write support.
* Add copy constructor and assignment operator.
* Remove Init(). Initialize lazily instead. Since AddInfo() can fail
and we check initialization anyway, there's no point in having an
explicit Init(). Given that there was only one invocation of Init()
in the package kit and its users, it was very likely missing in some
places.
* Fix a few places where we ignored that the PackageMap actually
contains lists of PackageInfo objects.
There's now a Command class that must be derived and registered with
a CommandManager, all simplified by a REGISTER_COMMAND macro. That gets
rid of the print_command_usage_and_exit() function copy for every
command, moves the short usage texts to the command implementations,
and avoids any repetition of the command name. When implementing a new
command only a new source file needs to be created, nothing else needs
to be touched.
* It no longer consists of a BPackageResolvableExpression and a
repository. Instead it can now either refer to a package directly or
consist of a search string.
* SolverPackageSpecifierList: Add AppendSpecifier() convenience
versions.
* Adjust LibsolvSolver and pkgman accordingly.
* BSolver/LibsolvSolver:
* Add B_FIND_IN_NAME and make searching in the names explicit.
* Add B_FIND_IN_PROVIDES to search the packages' provides list.
* pkgman: Also search in provides.
* _Init() was a bit too enthusiastic, throwing really everything away.
So, after calling it at the beginning of _AddRepositories() there
wouldn't be any repositories anymore.
* Rename _Init() to _InitPool() to make its purpose clearer.
* Pull a _CleanupPool() out of _Cleanup() that only deletes the pool
and anything depending on it.
* RepositoryInfo::HasChanged(): Always consider changed when there's no
libsolv repo yet.
* daemon: Implement private message protocol to retrieve the active
packages.
* BPackageRoster::GetActivePackages(): Get the active packages list
from the daemon.
