--HCdXmnRlPgeNBad2 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi all, We just released pkg 1.5.0 beta1 (in ports-mgmt/pkg-devel), Here is what happened since pkg 1.4.0: - pkg has grown with an initial support for provides/requires: this is a naive version but good enough to at least make major upgrade of php safer as well as making pear/pecl maintenance saner (note that this will need modifications in the ports tree) - Lots of new regression tests has been added, which allows us not less break your systems an unexpected way (do not worry there are still rooms for breakage) - Initial support for OS X - Initial support for NetBSD/EdjeBSD - Update most of the bundled third party software has been updated to their latest version - Improve the messages reported by pkg (and probably make some other worse) - Properly support file flags - Implement argument support for custom keywords - Extend setting credential via plist to allow to set file flags - Make credential syntax via plist more flexible allow to only defines the first fields and not latest for example @(user,,) can now be written just @(user) - pkg updating now supports case insensitive matching - pkg create now support a verbose mode - Add an option to change the default on question, until now the default answer was "No" with that option set it would be "Yes" - lots of fixes to pkg audit -r - Global memory usage reduction and speed up - Improvements and cleanup on pkg alias - pkg annotate --show --all has been fixed - Make pkg.h C++ friendly - Lots of improvements in the solver - Lots of fixes on 32 bits platforms - Add support for: pkg create -M ./plop.ucl -p ./plop.plist - New pkg -r <rootdir> that will install in the given rootdir without chrooting - Export PKG_ROOTDIR to scripts allow to make them as portable as possible - Stop trying to remove all installed package with the argument of pkg delete is a local file - Be more explicit about why the solver it going to reinstall, remove or upgrade (when possible) - Plenty of bug fixes - Plenty of new bugs Please test and report as much bugs as you can! We could be very grateful if regressions tests could be provided along with the bug reports :) Plan is to release 1.5.0 as soon as possible Best regards, Bapt --HCdXmnRlPgeNBad2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iEYEARECAAYFAlUa73sACgkQ8kTtMUmk6Ez5BwCbBc35ig3+qOqmpjisPCgYq384 wd8An1/W2kU5JZhNqR5Ldl66ni8XlmeG =uqMn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HCdXmnRlPgeNBad2--
