2021-11-15	pkg_install: Switch to posix_spawn() on newer macOS.	jperkin	1	-2/+65
	vfork() no longer works on Monterey and causes serious intermittent issues when upgrading pkg_install. Forking the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts can sometimes fail, due to the underlying pkg_add/pkg_delete binaries having been changed or removed, leaving the system broken with no package tools. The manual page suggests using posix_spawn() instead and that appears to work correctly. The code has been laid out so that it's easy enough to switch other platforms to posix_spawn() too if required, or for improved performance, and has been verified to work successfully on SmartOS. Bump pkg_install version to 20211115.
2009-08-02	pkg_install-20090727:	joerg	1	-3/+3
	Make pkg_install WARNS=4 clean and fix a number of lint warnings. Based on reports from veego about warnings with older GCC releases in pkg_delete, where a variable is potentially used uninitialized.
2009-02-02	Merge pkg_install-20090201 from pkg_install-renovation branch.	joerg	1	-8/+5
	- DB support is always included from libnbcompat if needed - pkg_view and linkfarm are not installed any more; they are not moved into the attic yet, so they can easily be installed as separte package - common configuration file to customise the behavior of various components; this supersedes the old audit-packages.conf - support for PKSC7 signatures (using X509 certs) and GPG signatures for packages in a secure way. See pkg_admin(8) for how to create them and pkg_install.conf(5) for the options to use them - audit-packages and download-vulnerability-list are wrapper scripts around pkg_admin. They try to mimic the classic options if used sanely. "pkg_admin audit" is now an order of magnitude faster than before - pkg_add uses libarchive and libfetch instead of external ftp and tar: - progress bar is currently missing for downloads - "pkg_add -" is no longer supported - no adhoc check for conficts between dependencies and already installed packages - "pkg_add -s" has been replaced with an option in pkg_install.conf, verification of plain detached GPG signatures is no longer supported - optional check for vulnerabilities before adding a package - if /var and /usr/pkg are on different fileystems it is twice as fast now - conflicts due to overlapping plists are checked before installation - pkg_add no longer plays with the process limits - pkg_add and pkg_delete have a new destdir option; scripts have to either be modified to use PKG_DESTDIR or should be disabled - pkg_add -u for now can't be used to update to the exact same version - internal "rm -rf" and "mkdir_p" code - all memory allocation failures are not explicitly fatal - if a file is not removed due to a failed checksum, still remove the entry from pkgdb
2008-04-29	Drop clauses 3 and 4 from TNF licenses	martin	1	-8/+1

2007-09-18	Don't cache the allocated argv in a local static variable, just allocate	joerg	1	-28/+16
	and free it.
2005-12-06	Specify the full path to tar when unpacking a package.	ben	1	-4/+4
	Modify pfcexec so the new process file name can be different from argv[0]. This fix is from Peter Postma, and it addresses PR#32228
2005-11-23	Remove unused variables, fix variable names to avoid shadowing globals,	ben	1	-3/+1
	and add PAX_CMD fallback macro.
2005-11-22	Reduce the use of the system() function in pkg_install to avoid quoting	ben	1	-23/+37
	problems. Instead, use exec*() functions. Replace PUSHOUT() macro and string buffers with a function that operates on data structures. If it is necessary to copy files into place from staging area, then use pax to copy them. Add functions in pexec.c to create a pipe for sending data to a child process. Replace pipe code in create/perform.c with these functions. Use these functions instead of command-line arguments when copying files into place from staging area. Three system() references remain: @exec, @unexec, and vsystem().
2003-10-29	Sync pkgtools/pkg_install with src/usr.sbin/pkg_install from 20031003.	jlam	1	-3/+5
	New features include fetching binary packages using HTTP (thanks wiz!) and some minor speed optimizations for pkg_delete.
2003-09-23	sync with NetBSD-current after updates from wiz.	grant	1	-5/+21

2003-09-23	sync with NetBSD-current's pkg_install-20030923.	grant	1	-1/+1

2003-09-02	Sync to latest pkg_install sources from the HEAD for pkg_delete	jlam	1	-2/+2
	optimizations and man page fixes. Also use recent src2nbcompat to reverse the order that "config.h" and <nbcompat.h> are included in *.[ch] files.
2003-09-01	Update pkg_install to 20030823, which has the changes to support	jlam	1	-0/+159
	package views. Pkgsrc changes include: * Convert to use pkgtools/libnbcompat so that it's easier to keep this in sync with src/usr.sbin/pkg_install. * Add a src2nbcompat script that converts src/usr.sbin/pkg_install into an appropriate start for pkgtools/pkg_install. The script removes the Makefiles, adds CPP inclusion guards around each #include <...> line, and includes <nbcompat.h> at the top of each *.c file. This should make it even easier to keep sources in sync with the HEAD.
