255     o ensure download when updating media (with --auto-update) is quiet
256     - urpmi.update
257     o updated "ignore"d medium should not become non "ignore"d (#45457)
258     (regression introduced in 6.18)
259    
260     Version 6.18 - 28 October 2008

268     urpme --auto-orphans mozilla-firefox-ext-google-toolbar" which must not
269     remove firefox (cf #45058)

282     (esp. for urpmi.addmedia --distrib).
283     exceptions: "urpmi.update -a" and "urpmi.update --update"
284     for backward compatibility
285    
286     Version 6.17 - 14 October 2008
287    
288     - urpmi
289     o diskspace issues are now a fatal error (need perl-URPM 3.20)
290     (no use going on with the other transactions)
291     - gurpmi
292     o add support for --clean
293     - urpmi.update, urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.removemedia:
294     o do not check wether the media are valid,
295     it allows "mv /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg.{backup,} ; urpmi.update -a" to work
296     (nb: not equivalent with urpmi.addmedia, since pubkey will not be imported)
297     - aria2:
298     o do not use --max-file-not-found=3 when downloading rpms
299     (since rpms are "versioned")
300     o use it even if nearest mirror is rsync
301     - library:
302     o allow mdkapplet-upgrade-helper to force $MIRRORLIST distro version
303

311    
312     Version 6.15 - 7 October 2008
313    
314     - urpmi, rpmdrake:
315     o nice exit code for "bad signature" fatal error. Fixes rpmdrake continuing
316     on bad signature (#44575)
317     - urpmi, gurpmi:
318     o handle --replacefiles (will be used by mdkonline)
319     (require perl-URPM 3.19)
320     - gurpmi:
321     o do not exit in --auto mode at end of installation which prevents
322     restarting after priority upgrade
323     o fix using --rpm-root & --urpmi-root
324     o just do not ask for confirmation before removing packages in
325     --auto mode,
326    
327     Version 6.14 - 23 September 2008
328    
329     - use "versioned" media_info files
330     (needed for aria2 to handle mirrors not having some media_info/*)
331     - urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.update:
332     o for remote media, instead of first checking reconfig.urpmi, try MD5SUM.
333     If it fails try reconfig.urpmi
334     o only look for "descriptions" in media_info/
335     o do not get "descriptions" on non update media since it's useless and
336     potentially slow
337     - urpmi.addmedia:
338     o --distrib: do not skip "debug_for=" media
339     (debug media will be added with flag "ignore" if noauto=1)
340     o for remote media, do not probe for media_info files in "./", do it only in
341     "media_info/"
342     - aria2:
343     o use --ftp-pasv (as suggested by aria2 developer)
344     o use --connect-timeout 6 seconds (instead of 3)
345    
346     Version 6.13 - 18 September 2008
347    
348     - aria2:
349     o use new option --connect-timeout (need aria2 20080918 snapshot)
350     o abort download after not finding a file on 3 servers
351     o reduce from 16 to 8 servers for each file in metalink
352

372     - urpmi
373     o after installing in chroot, migrate back rpmdb db version to one
374     compatible with the rpm in the chroot
375     o fix orphans handling: an already installed pkg must not become
376     "unrequested" because a new version of it is required
377     - fix display of downloaded urls with aria2 and metalinks
378     - fix handling --downloader when using mirrorlist (it was forcing aria2)

389     o modify urpm::download::get_content() to work as non-superuser
390    
391     Version 6.7 - 3 September 2008, Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

409     installed-through-deps.list (#42167)

469     o statedir files are now in /var/lib/urpmi/<medium-name>/
470     for eg: /var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.<medium-name> is now
471     /var/lib/urpmi/<medium-name>/synthesis.hdlist.cz
472     it allows easier medium update without using urpmi.update (#31893)
473     (but with --urpmi-root, old statedir files are used to allow compatibility
474     with older urpmi)

482     "urpmi foo bar" and only installing bar (#41593)
483     (requires perl-URPM 3.18)
484     o set connection timeout for rsync as well (Anssi)
485     o fix --replacepkgs when a same package appears more than once in urpmi db
486     o fix displaying "files are missing" (regression introduced in 5.6)

502     o add missing mark in "Do you want to add media '%s'?" message (from Nikos)
503     - urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.update:
504     o fix checking synthesis MD5SUM
505     o check downloaded synthesis/MD5SUM is not invalid HTML code, and try
506     another mirror from mirrorlist (#39918)
507     (useful for servers not returning a valid HTTP error)
508    
509     Version 5.19 - 3 April 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
510    
511     - urpmq:

514    
515     Version 5.18 - 1 April 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
516    
517     - urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.update:
518     o correctly handle media with no xml-info when using "xml-info: always"
519     (#39521)
520     - urpmi.addmedia:
521     o --mirrorlist: if the retrieved media.cfg is broken, try another mirror
522     (#39591, it also workarounds #39592)
523     - urpmf:
524     o check usage of -a, -! and the like instead of displaying the ugly
525     "Internal error: syntax error ..."
526     o in some cases (iso on disk), the hdlist is not available in
527     media/xxx/media_info/, but we can use the statedir copy. So use it
528

620    
621     - all tools:
622     o cdrom:// replaces removable://

624     you can now use more than one cdrom drive (#37363)
625     o fix download progression using wget
626     o restore generation of /var/lib/urpmi/names.<medium>, but it is now done in

652    
653     - urpmq:

663     download dir to cachedir)
664     o handle variables $ARCH/$RELEASE in mirrorlist
665     - urpmi:
666     o display "%s of packages will be retrieved."
667     (need perl-URPM 3.10 and synthesis built with @filesize@)
668     o do not say "files are missing" when the downloaded rpm is corrupted
669     o --test: only display "Installation is possible" when it is the case (#29837)
670     o fix "using one big transaction" that occurs when using --keep
671     (#30198) (part of the fix is in perl-URPM 3.09)
672     - bash-completion:
673     o restore available-pkgs completion using "urpmq --list" (guillomovitch)
674     (but only if COMP_URPMI_HDLISTS is set since it's slow)
675    
676     Version 5.5 - 23 February 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

689     o drop /var/lib/urpmi/names.<medium> (was used by bash-completion)
690     - urpmi.addmedia
691     o don't fail on remaining statedir files (#36267)

695    
696     - bug fix release

718     Version 5.2 - 18 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
719    
720     - urpmi:
721     o --buildrequires deprecate --src, --src is kept for compatibility but its
722     behaviour is changed a little (it doesn't download src.rpm anymore)
723     o --install-src as user now works for remote medium
724     o --install-src will remove succesfully installed src.rpm from
725     /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/* (unless post-clean is 0)
726     - urpmf:
727     o add special code for --files simple case, it makes urpmf 3x faster for
728     this often used case
729     o display a warning when searching "xxx(yyy)" since it is handled as a
730     regexp and so the parentheses are useless. suggest using --literal
731     - urpmq:
732     o add --provides
733     o fix option -a : display packages of all compatible archs (#36942)
734     - all tools:
735     o deprecate --curl and --wget in favor of --downloader curl
736     and --downloader --wget

749    
750     Version 5.0 - 11 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
751

756     o "urpmf --sourcerpm" is much faster
757     o see "xml-info" option in urpmi.cfg(5) to see when those files are downloaded
758     o new require: perl module XML::LibXML
759     - urpmq:
760     o use rpm file instead of hdlist/xml-info when file is local
761     o use URPM::Package->changelogs (need perl-URPM 3.06)
762     - urpmf
763     o fix an *old* bug (since december 2002) making urpmf keeps parsed
764     hdlist files in memory (was fixed for multitags, but not for simple tags)
765     - all tools:
766     o replace /var/lib/urpmi/MD5SUM with /var/lib/urpmi/MD5SUM.<medium_name>
767     (this will allow checking xml media_info is up-to-date even if we don't
768     update it at the same time as synthesis is updated)
769     - urpmi.update, urpmi.addmedia, urpmi.removemedia:
770     o drop hdlist support replaced with xml media_info
771     (this imply file-deps are correctly handled, see genhdlist2(1))
772     o drop option "-c" which used to clean /var/cache/urpmi/headers
773     o enhancement: only parse updated synthesis
774     - urpmi.addmedia
775     o do check md5sum of downloaded synthesis
776     (the check was only done on urpmi.update)
777     o new --xml-info option
778     - urpmi:
779     o do remove __db* on priority-upgrade
780     (fix regression introduced in 4.10.15)
781     o always prompt before doing a priority-upgrade transaction, even if there
782     is only one priority upgrade package (since there will be more packages to
783     install after restarting urpmi)
784    
785     Version 4.10.19 - 12 December 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
786    
787     - urpmi:
788     o fix handling "post-clean: 0" in urpmi.cfg
789     (#36082, regression introduced in 4.10.16)
790     - library:
791     o urpm::media::read_config() doesn't read urpmi.cfg global options anymore,
792     use urpm->get_global_options or urpm->new_parse_cmdline
793    
794     Version 4.10.18 - 11 December 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
795    
796     - urpmi:
797     o handle --suggests (to override urpmi.cfg global option "no-suggests")
798     - urpmi.update:
799     o exit code 1 when a (selected) medium can't be updated (#35952)
800     o leave early with error if no medium were successfull updated
801     - drop translated man pages (they are too old)
802     - urpmi.addmedia:
803     o exit code 1 when a medium can't be added
804     o enhance parsing of urls with login:password for logins with "@"
805     so that password doesn't end up in urpmi.cfg
806     o adapt to perl-URPM 3.00 API to parse pubkey files
807     (nb: $urpm->{keys} is not used anymore)
808    
809     Version 4.10.17 - 30 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
810    
811     - urpmi:
812     o fix regression introduced in 4.10.15:
813     "urpmi --force valid invalid" should warn about "invalid" but still
814     install "valid"
815    
816     Version 4.10.16 - 28 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
817    
818     - urpmi:
819     o small transactions should have at least 8 packages
820     (ie --split-length is now 8 by default)
821     o do not do a big transaction if installing less than 20 packages
822     (ie --split-level is now 1 by default)
823     - urpmq:
824     o new option --requires-recursive (alias of option -d)
825     o bugfix previous release: "urpmq --fuzzy foo" should display all "*foo*" matches
826    
827     Version 4.10.15 - 26 November 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
828    
829     - all tools:
830     o exit with code 1 after displaying usage (instead of exit code 0)
831     - urpmi:
832     o with rsync, use --copy-links (to have the same behaviour as http/ftp, and
833     so allow symlinks on the server)
834     o fix "urpmi --install-src" (regression introduced in 4.10.9) (#35164)
835     o fix --limit-rate (regression introduced in 4.9.12)
836     o --auto-update is quite unsafe, but at least now it should be cleaner
837     (ensure $urpm doesn't have media twice) (#36134)
838    
839     Version 4.10.14 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
840

850    
851     - urpm::media::update_media:

854     suggests)
855     - urpmf
856     o fix -a and -o
857

866     - improve retrieving update descriptions API
867    
868     Version 4.10.9 - 13 September 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
869    
870     - urpmi, urpme
871     o default to selecting all the prefered packages according to installed
872     locales (need perl-URPM 2.00 to work)
873     o do not prompt questions if not waiting for user answer
874     (for urpmi --force or urpme --force)
875     - urpmf

1052     (should make it more understandable by users)
1053     - urpmi.addmedia
1054     o [bugfix] fix removable://... (#30257)
1055     o [bugfix] look for media/$media_dir/media_info/pubkey instead of
1056     media/$media_dir/pubkey
1057     o [bugfix] with --distrib, don't use previous media's pubkey if a pubkey is
1058     missing (eg: use pubkey_main for media "Main Updates" when

1067     in perl-URPM 1.61
1068     o fix displaying README.*urpmi when using --root or --urpmi-root

1291     o now inserting non-remote medium after first non-remote medium
1292     (instead of adding it as first medium)
1293     - urpmi, urpme, urpmq:
1294     o add option --probe-synthesis (allowed with --use-distrib)
1295    
1296     Version 4.9.3 - 24 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1297    
1298     - bug fix release:
1299     - fix handling multiple virtual hdlist files
1300     (the second pass was not done...)
1301    
1302     Version 4.9.2 - 24 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1303    
1304     - bug fix release:
1305     - /foo/@86875:bar.src.rpm is not a url with protocol /foo/@86875
1306     - /foo/chroot_tmp/... is not a url with protocol /foo/chroot
1307    
1308     Version 4.9.1 - 23 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1309    
1310     - cleanup locks handling, log locking, and don't say "urpmi database locked"
1311     when it's the rpm database that is locked
1312     - urpmi:
1313     o add --nokeep (which overrides urpmi.cfg global option "keep")
1314    
1315     Version 4.9.0 - 22 November 2006, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1316    
1317     - urpmi:
1318     o don't fork on multiple transactions
1319     o fix buggy print "::logger_id::" (#27026)
1320     - gurpmi2 (tvignaud):
1321     o fix unvisible content
1322     o prevent a dialog to have a height of several scores of thousands pixels
1323     o add support of --root
1324     - urpmi.update:
1325     o don't write urpmi.cfg unless really needed
1326     o don't write md5sum in urpmi.cfg (bugfix)
1327     - urpmi.addmedia:
1328     o drop support for "list" file
1329     (now you must have a hdlist/synthesis on remote server)
1330     o drop support for searching recursively rpms when there is no
1331     hdlist/synthesis. Only search in given directory (ie $url/*.rpm)
1332     o do not use list.<media_name> to store passwords, use /etc/urpmi/netrc
1333     instead. Also do have the url in urpmi.cfg, only the password is removed
1334     o change the format of list.<media_name>, it contains only rpm files
1335     relative to the medium url
1336     o deprecate "... with <relative hdlist/synthesis>". It is not useful anymore
1337     (nb: if you want to force using hdlist or synthesis, use --probe-hdlist or
1338     --probe-synthesis)
1339     o don't write urpmi.cfg twice
1340     o do not look for hdlist/synthesis in ../media_info/hdlist$suffix.cz (nb:
1341     with media.cfg, it will still use hdlist from media/media_info/, but it
1342     will simply use the hdlist$suffix.cz given by media.cfg )
1343     o --norebuild is by default (and deprecated): when the local
1344     hdlist/synthesis is buggy, do not discard it and go searching for *.rpm.
1345     Make it an error instead
1346     o fix building synthesis when using *.rpm (ie no hdlist/synthesis)
1347     - urpmi.removemedia: much faster (since it doesn't parse hdlist/synthesis anymore)
1348     - handle "empty" hdlist/synthesis
1349     - generate names.<media_name> only when the medium is created/updated
1350     - major splitting of urpm.pm in many modules
1351     - major splitting of functions in smaller functions
1352     (eg: update_media was 988 lines long, has been splitted in functions shorter
1353     than 105 lines)
1354     - big code cleanup/rework
1355     - perl_checker compliance (very useful for such big code rework)
