NAME

URPM::Resolve - Resolve routines for URPM/urpmi

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The property functions

The property2name* functions parse things like "mageia-release[>= 1]" which is the format returned by URPM.xs for ->requires, ->provides, ->conflicts...

property2name($property)

Returns the property name (eg: "mageia-release" in above example)

property2name_range($property)

Returns the property name & range (eg: "mageia-release" & ">= 1" in above example)

property2name_op_version($property)

Returns the property name, operator & range (eg: "mageia-release", ">=", & "1" in above example)

The state functions

Those are wrappers around $state (cf "The $state object" in URPM).

packages_to_remove($state)

Returns the ids of the packages to remove

removed_or_obsoleted_packages($state)

Returns the ids of the packages that are either to remove or are obsoleted

Strict arch related functions

strict_arch($urpm)

Is "strict-arch" wanted? (cf "man urpmi") Since it's slower we only force it on bi-arch

strict_arch_check_installed($db, $pkg)

Checks whether $pkg could be installed under strict-arch policy (ie check whether $pkg->name with different arch is not installed)

strict_arch_check($installed_pkg, $pkg) = @_;

Check whether $installed_pkg and $pkg have same arch (except for src/noarch of course)

Installed packages related functions

get_installed_arch($db, $n)

Returns the architecture of package $n in rpm DB

is_package_installed($db, $n)

Is $pkg->name installed?

provided_version_that_overlaps($pkg, $provide_name)

Finds $pkg "provides" that matches $provide_name, and returns the version provided. eg: $pkg provides "a = 3", $provide_name is "a > 1", returns "3"

find_required_package($urpm, $db, $state, $id_prop)

Find the package (or packages) to install matching $id_prop. Returns (list ref of matches, list ref of preferred matches) (see also find_candidate_packages())

Choosing packages helpers

_find_required_package__kernel_source($urpm, $db, $choices)

Prefer the pkgs corresponding to installed/selected kernels

_find_required_package__kmod($urpm, $db, $choices)

Prefer the pkgs corresponding to installed/selected kernels

_score_for_locales($urpm, $db, $pkg)

Packages that require locales-xxx when the corresponding locales are already installed should be preferred over packages that require locales which are not installed.

eg: locales-fr & locales-de are installed, prefer firefox-fr & firefox-de which respectively require locales-fr & locales-de

Misc helpers

pkg2media($mediums, $pkg)

Return the medium that contains the URPM::Package $pkg

Dependancy resolver related functions

find_candidate_packages($urpm, $id_prop, $o_rejected)

Find candidates packages from a require string (or id). Takes care of choices using the '|' separator. (nb: see also find_required_package())

whatrequires($urpm, $state, $property_name)

Return packages requiring $property_name

whatrequires_id($state, $property_name)

Return ids of packages requiring $property_name

unsatisfied_requires($urpm, $db, $state, $pkg, %options)

Return unresolved requires of a package (a new one or an existing one).

with_db_unsatisfied_requires($urpm, $db, $state, $name, $do)

This function is "recommends vs requires" safe: Traversing DB on 'whatrequires' will give both requires & recommends, but ->unsatisfied_requires() will check $p->requires and so filter out recommends

with_state_unsatisfied_requires($urpm, $db, $state, $name, $do)

# LOG: do not ignore dropped provide from updated package (mdvbz#40842) # (http://svn.mandriva.com/viewvc/soft/rpm/perl-URPM/trunk/URPM/Resolve.pm?r1=242655&r2=242656&) # TV: was introduced in order to replace one with_db_unsatisfied_requires() call by with_any_unsatisfied_requires()

with_any_unsatisfied_requires($urpm, $db, $state, $name, $do)

See above...

backtrack_selected($urpm, $db, $state, $dep, $diff_provides, %options)

Used when a require is not available

set_rejected($urpm, $state, $rdep)

Keep track of what causes closure. Set removed and obsoleted level.

resolve_rejected($urpm, $db, $state, $pkg, %rdep)

Close rejected (as urpme previously) for package to be removable without error.

resolve_requested($urpm, $db, $state, $requested, %options)

Resolve dependencies of requested packages; keep resolution state to speed up process.

A requested package is marked to be installed; once done, an upgrade flag or an installed flag is set according to the needs of the installation of this package.

Other required packages will have a required flag set along with an upgrade flag or an installed flag.

Base flag should always be "installed" or "upgraded".

The following options are recognized :

callback_choices : subroutine to be called to ask the user to choose between several possible packages. Returns an array of URPM::Package objects, or an empty list eventually.

keep :

nodeps :

no_recommends: ignore recommends tags

It actually calls resolve_requested__no_recommends() and resolve_requested_recommends().

resolve_requested_recommends($urpm, $db, $state, $selected, %options)

Select newly recommended package is installed as if (hard) required.

resolve_requested__no_recommends($urpm, $db, $state, $requested, %options)

Like resolve_requested() but doesn't handle recommends

disable_selected ($urpm, $db, $state, @pkgs_todo)

Do the opposite of the resolve_requested: unselect a package and extend to any package not requested that is no longer needed by any other package.

Return the packages that have been deselected.

disable_selected_and_unrequested_dependencies($urpm, $db, $state, @pkgs_todo)

Determine dependencies that can safely been removed and are not requested. Return the packages that have been deselected.

Dependancy related functions

_dep_to_name($urpm, $dep)

Take a string of package ids (eg: "4897|4564|454") that represent packages providing some dependancy. Return string of package names corresponding to package ids. eg: "libgtk1-devel|libgtk2-devel|libgtk3-devel" for ids corresponding to "gtk-devel"

$dep is a hashref: { required => $ID, requested => $requested->{$ID} } # CHECK IT REALLY IS AN ID HERE => WE SHOULD REALLY DOCUMENT $requested

_id_to_name($urpm, $id_prop)

Returns package name corresponding to package ID (or ID if not numerical)

_ids_to_names($urpm, @ids)

Return package names corresponding to package ids

_ids_to_fullnames($urpm, @ids)

Return package fullnames corresponding to package ids. identical to _ids_to_names() modulo short name vs full name

Size related functions

selected_size($urpm, $state)

Compute selected size by removing any removed or obsoleted package. Returns total package size

selected_size_filesize($urpm, $state)

Compute selected size by removing any removed or obsoleted package. Returns both total package size & total filesize.

Other functions

compute_flags($urpm, $val, %options)

Adds packages flags according to an array containing packages names. $val is an array reference (as returned by get_packages_list) containing package names, or a regular expression matching against the fullname, if enclosed in slashes. %options :

callback : sub to be called for each package where the flag is set

skip : if true, set the 'skip' flag

disable_obsolete : if true, set the 'disable_obsolete' flag

request_packages_to_upgrade($urpm, $db, $state, $requested, %options)

Select packages to upgrade, according to package already registered. By default, only takes best package and its obsoleted and compute all installed or upgrade flag. (used for --auto-select)

Graph functions

sort_graph($nodes, $edges)

Sort the graph

nb: this handles $nodes list not containing all $nodes that can be seen in $edges

check_graph_is_sorted($sorted, $nodes, $edges)

sort_by_dependencies($urpm, $state, @list_unsorted)

sorted_rpms_to_string($urpm, @sorted)

build_transaction_set($urpm, $db, $state, %options)

Build transaction set for given selection Options: start, end, idlist, split_length, keep
