2012-05-22 | pkgtools/packagekit: Fix permissions and directory creation | marino | 1 | -1/+2 | |
This package would fail when a non-privileged user would try to install it. That's because it was trying to create /usr/pkg/var/log directory. Another directory was getting installed into DESTDIR but no further. Added patch: 1) Removes attempt of Makefile to install ${VARBASE}/log 2) ..and directory ${VARBASE}/cache/PackageKit/downloads creation 3) ..which fixes non-root installations The INSTALL file was removed, instead of installing directories in ${VARBASE}, it was installing directories at /. The functionality was replaced with OWN_DIRS+= in the Makefile and verified to work as expected. | |||||

PackageKit is a system designed to make installing and updating software on your computer easier. The primary design goal is to unify all the software graphical tools used in different distributions, and use some of the latest technology like PolicyKit to make the process suck less. The actual nuts-and-bolts distro tool (yum, apt, conary, etc) is used by PackageKit using compiled and scripted helpers. PackageKit isn't meant to replace these tools, instead providing a common set of abstractions that can be used by standard GUI and text mode package managers. PackageKit itself is a system activated daemon called packagekitd. Being system activated means that it's only being run when the user is using a text mode or graphical tool, and quits when it's no longer being used. This means we don't delay the boot sequence or session startup and don't consume memory when not being used. |
