pkgsync (1.26) unstable; urgency=medium * Remove the deprecated support for dpkg-style globbing (and thus also the --dpkg-glob and --aptitude-glob flags). * Better multiarch handling. In particular, pkgsync should now handle the case where you have an unused package (e.g. foo:arch) from a non-default architecture; previously, it would try to mark just “foo” as manual, whereas it should have used the full name, “foo:arch”. The handling probably still is not perfect, but it should be better. * Upgrade to Standards-Version 3.9.8 (no changes needed). -- Steinar H. Gunderson Mon, 13 Jun 2016 11:06:54 +0100 pkgsync (1.25) unstable; urgency=medium * When listing installed packages, filter out everything after the colon, so that we do not get commandlines that try to (e.g.) install libfoo and set libfoo:amd64 to manually installed at the same time, causing flip-flopping between runs. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sat, 18 Jul 2015 12:32:23 +0200 pkgsync (1.24) unstable; urgency=medium * Remove trailing whitespace from packages, fixing warnings like “Couldn't find package ""” from aptitude. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 07 Jun 2015 21:56:09 +0200 pkgsync (1.23) unstable; urgency=low * Properly anchor the kernel version regex when using aptitude globbing; patch from Tollef Fog Heen. (Closes: #731241) -- Steinar H. Gunderson Wed, 04 Dec 2013 00:29:33 +0100 pkgsync (1.22) unstable; urgency=high * Deal with changes introduced in aptitude 0.6.1.4-1: Add '?upgradable' first of all at dist-upgrade line, so all packages are upgraded, not just the one explicitly mentioned in mayhave/musthave/maynothave. * Update aptitude dependency to 0.6.1.4-1, sine it's not immediately clear when '?upgradable' was implemented. * Use full-upgrade instead of dist-upgrade. * Upgrade to Standards-Version 3.8.4 (no changes needed). * Upgrade to debhelper compat level 7. Update debhelper Build-Depends; no other changes needed. * Add ${misc:Depends} to Depends line, to keep lintian happy. * Remove empty prerm fragment. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sat, 20 Mar 2010 11:03:43 +0100 pkgsync (1.21) unstable; urgency=low * Use aptitude update instead of apt-get update. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Tue, 20 Nov 2007 23:21:44 +0100 pkgsync (1.20) unstable; urgency=high * Remove a few extra quotes from the aptitude options. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Tue, 20 Nov 2007 01:12:22 +0100 pkgsync (1.19) unstable; urgency=high * Instead of doing "yes n |" in nightly-pkgsync, which seems to confuse newer aptitude, give proper dpkg options to do sane things with conffiles. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sat, 17 Nov 2007 15:56:52 +0100 pkgsync (1.18) unstable; urgency=low * Update the manual page with the fact that --aptitude-glob is default. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 23 Sep 2007 16:33:14 +0200 pkgsync (1.17) unstable; urgency=low * Switch to aptitude globbing by default. * Add NEWS.Debian file describing the change. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Tue, 17 Apr 2007 13:34:18 +0200 pkgsync (1.16) unstable; urgency=low * Add "set -o noglob" to make sure wildcard patterns aren't attempted globbed. This is a bashism, so change the shebang to #! /bin/bash. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 27 Aug 2006 20:26:11 +0200 pkgsync (1.15) unstable; urgency=low * Support aptitude's globbing over dpkg's globbing. Unfortunately, this is not backwards-compatible, so we'll have to invent a new flag; after etch, this will probably become the default. * Update the man page and the --help output to know the new options. * Bump to Standards-version 3.7.2 (no changes needed). -- Steinar H. Gunderson Thu, 24 Aug 2006 19:49:40 +0200 pkgsync (1.14) unstable; urgency=low * Ship (empty) /etc/pkgsync directory. * Update version number in binary. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 9 Jul 2006 13:55:53 +0200 pkgsync (1.13) unstable; urgency=low * Make Build-depends-indep on debhelper into an ordinary build-depends, as we use it in non-indep targets. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Thu, 15 Jun 2006 21:50:28 +0200 pkgsync (1.12) unstable; urgency=low * Upload to unstable instead of experimental (1.11 was supposed to, but I forgot). * Mention the documentation in --help. * Update the man page with the new options. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Wed, 8 Mar 2006 17:13:07 +0100 pkgsync (1.11) experimental; urgency=low * Use getopt to take command line arguments: * Add run-time help (--help). * Add a simulation mode (--simulate). (Closes: #298459) * Add a flag to make removing optional (--keep-unused). (Closes: #240319) * Document the command line options in README.Debian. * Give -q to aptitude, to suppress the progress indicator. (Closes: #240882) * Version our dependency on aptitude, to make sure we have one that supports -q and -o. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Wed, 8 Mar 2006 16:22:28 +0100 pkgsync (1.10) experimental; urgency=low * Don't use COLUMNS=5000 anymore; it's redundant with newer dpkg. * Update a few comments in the script. * Documentation overhaul -- update with information about the new workings, old quirks that are no more, and new quirks that replace old quirks. * Document example cfengine setup. * Remove more explicit path usage. * Upgrade to debhelper compatibility level 5 (no changes needed). * Update versioned Build-Depends accordingly. * Use sort -u after reading all the package lists; duplicates could give odd effects with the filtering. * Added a GPL and copyright notice to the script itself. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Mon, 6 Mar 2006 16:35:30 +0100 pkgsync (1.9) experimental; urgency=low * Run everything in one large aptitude invocation instead of multiple small ones. This should make pkgsync more consistent across runs in corner cases (no flip-flapping if something is in both musthave and maynothave, for instance), as well as open the opportunity for much easier simulation. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 5 Mar 2006 16:47:27 +0100 pkgsync (1.8) unstable; urgency=low * In some points, add musthave and mayhave into a combined list without duplicates. This makes it possible to have a package both in musthave and mayhave (for instance, a kernel package both as linux-image-whatever in musthave and as meta:current-kernel in mayhave :-) ) without total blowup due to how filter() works. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:07:20 +0100 pkgsync (1.7) unstable; urgency=low * Add a special package "meta:current-kernel", which matches kernel packages for the currently used kernel. * Mention it in the documentation. * Moved the debtags documentation down into its own section. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 3 Mar 2006 17:18:30 +0100 pkgsync (1.6) unstable; urgency=low * Have the cron script check that /usr/sbin/pkgsync exists before trying to run it; patch from Reinhard Tartler. (Closes: #351280) * Don't use absolute paths everywhere in the cron script, as we already set the path explicitly, nobody else does it and it really doesn't serve any good use. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 3 Feb 2006 23:26:43 +0100 pkgsync (1.5) unstable; urgency=low * Don't compress README.Debian file, as the default error message doesn't mention a .gz prefix. (Closes: #323891) * Include example files. (Closes: #332438) -- Steinar H. Gunderson Mon, 10 Oct 2005 18:18:57 +0200 pkgsync (1.4) unstable; urgency=low * The Debconf 5 edition :-) * Run "apt-get update" instead of "aptitude update ; dselect update". * Support for debtags; see the README.Debian file for more information. * Updated README.Debian with information on signed apt archives. * Updated Standards-version to 3.6.2, no changed needed. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 15 Jul 2005 14:19:11 +0200 pkgsync (1.3) unstable; urgency=low * Support glob patterns in lists. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Tue, 18 May 2004 21:47:57 +0200 pkgsync (1.2) unstable; urgency=low * Added cfengine2 to Suggests: line. (Closes: #242263) * pkgsync no longer fails when a package list is empty. (Closes: #248978) -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 14 May 2004 13:25:31 +0200 pkgsync (1.1) unstable; urgency=low * Bump to a version number without a Debian revision number, as pkgsync is a native Debian package. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 14 Mar 2004 16:00:14 +0100 pkgsync (1.0-5) unstable; urgency=low * Initial upload to Debian. (Closes: #236496) * Added README.Debian file. * Added manpage. * Changed maintainer address to my @debian.org address. * Fixed a bashism ("function" for defining shell functions); dash should now run pkgsync properly. * Added "Suggests: cfengine | rdist" line. * Added a reference to the README.Debian file in the error message that is output if /etc/pkgsync is empty. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sun, 14 Mar 2004 15:13:23 +0100 pkgsync (1.0-4) unstable; urgency=low * Set explicit paths everywhere in the script. * Add /usr/bin and /bin to PATH in nightly-pkgsync. * Remove /etc/cron.d/pkgsync in postinst. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Sat, 6 Mar 2004 11:30:45 +0100 pkgsync (1.0-3) unstable; urgency=low * Set PATH in nightly-pkgsync. * Remove packages before adding new ones, in case we're a bit low on space. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Fri, 5 Mar 2004 13:57:56 +0100 pkgsync (1.0-2) unstable; urgency=low * Changed from a cron.d fragment to using cron.daily. * pkgsync.log is now not removed after running pkgsync, it is simply overwritten every night. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Thu, 4 Mar 2004 16:22:49 +0100 pkgsync (1.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * Initial release. -- Steinar H. Gunderson Wed, 3 Mar 2004 22:40:46 +0100
