        (pkgActionItem::SetAuthorities): ...this; incorporate call of...
        (pkgActionItem::DownloadArchiveFiles): ...this, within the loop, so
        that we retry failed downloads at least a second time.

2011-02-15  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Make package version comparisons more robust.

        Fixes an issue reported by Chris Sutcliffe: previously, version
        comparisons were evaluated solely on the basis of differences in the
        package version field itself.  Henceforth, if this field compares as
        equal, then the comparison is extended to also consider differences
        between development phase qualifiers, and, if these too compare as
        equal, to differences in the target subsystem version fields.

        * src/pkginfo/pkginfo.h (pkgSpecs::VersionComparator): New private
        method; declare it.

        * src/pkgspec.cpp (pkgSpecs::VersionComparator): Implement it.
        (pkgSpecs::operator<, pkgSpecs::operator<=, pkgSpecs::operator>=):
        (pkgSpecs::operator>): Use it, replacing...
        (version): ...this static function; now unreferenced; delete it.

        * src/vercmp.h (pkgVersionInfo::pkgVersionInfo): Make it inline; it
        now delegates the entire class construction operation to...
        (pkgVersionInfo::Parse): ...this new private method; declare it.  This
        is also used to facilitate implementation of...
        (pkgVersionInfo::Reset): ...this new inline method, also requiring...
        (pkgVersionInfo::FreeAll): ...this new inline method; also now used by
        the class destructor, it encapsulates separate calls to...
        (pkgVersionInfo::Free): ...this original inline method, renamed...
        (pkgVersionInfo::FreeEntry): ...as this.

        * src/vercmp.cpp (pkgVersionInfo::Parse): Implement it.

2011-02-13  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Merge from mingw-get-0.1-mingw32-alpha-5 bug-fix branch.

        * src/pkgdeps.cpp (pkgXmlDocument::ResolveDependencies): Promote
        "install" action on new prerequisites, where a previously uninstalled
        package is required to satisfy any "upgrade" dependency.

        * src/pkgexec.cpp (pkgActionList::Execute): Don't make misleading
        claims concerning package removal.

        * Makefile.in (GUI_LDFLAGS): New macro; it is required by...
        (gui$EXEEXT): ...this new build rule; add to prerequisites of...
        (all): ...this [default] build rule; redefine this in terms of...
        (BIN_PROGRAMS, LIBEXEC_PROGRAMS, LIBEXEC_DATA): ...these new macros;
        define them, and also use them as loop iterator objectives for...

        than calling exit().

        * src/climain.cpp (climain): Wrap entire function body in try/
        catch block. If dmh_exception is caught, return EXIT_FAILURE.

        * src/clistub.c (main): Capture return value of climain(). If
        non-zero, perform last rites and return EXIT_FAILURE.

        no longer included in the distribution manifest.
        (pkgXmlDocument::ResolveDependencies): Fix a block nesting error;
        catch and diagnose unresolved dependencies; don't look beyond the XML

        Improve scheduling of package processing requests.

        * src/pkgexec.cpp (pkgXmlDocument::Schedule): Inspect entire `actions'

2010-08-12  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Guard against a potential buffer overrun.

        * src/pkgreqs.cpp (pkgSpecs::SetProperty): Allocate an additional
        byte to accommodate an extra field separator, when inserting a new
        data value into a previously empty field.

2010-07-27  Cesar Strauss  <cestrauss@gmail.com>

        Handle the GNU long name tar header format.

        * src/pkgproc.h (TAR_ENTITY_TYPE_GNU_LONGNAME): New manifest constant;
        define it.
        (pkgTarArchiveProcessor::EntityDataAsString): New protected method;
        declare and...
        * src/tarproc.cpp: ...implement it.
        (pkgTarArchiveProcessor::Process): Before building the entry pathname,

        the entry data area, before fetching the following header, from which
        to retrieve the associated entity data.

2010-06-24  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Work around an autoconf bug (reported by Stefano Sabatini).

        * Makefile.in (VPATH): Use @top_srcdir@ instead of ${srcdir}; current
        autoconf incorrectly elides references to @srcdir@ and ${srcdir} when
        substituting within a VPATH specification for building `in-source'.
        Also, prefer colons to blanks as path name separators, for improved
        portability to non-GNU implementations of make; (recommendation by
        Ralf Wildenhues).

2010-06-24  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Include alias search, when matching component package name.

        * src/keyword.c (has_keyword): Rearrange argument declarations for
        more natural order; update all callers accordingly.  Simplify; compare
        keyword to be matched with each successive candidate from match-list,
        character-by-character and in-place, so avoiding memory allocation
        for any local duplicate of the passed match-list; thus...
        (safe_strdup): ...this static function no longer required; delete it.
        (string.h): No references remain; do not include it.

        * src/pkgfind.cpp (pkgXmlNode::FindPackageByName): Augment component
        package name matching to include potential matches of the look-up name
        with trailing component name stripped off, when that matches the class
        name of an identified component package, and the initial substring of
        the look-up name, after stripping, matches any specified alias name
        for the containing package.

2010-06-10  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Address FIXME relating to identification of distributable files.

        * install-sh: Move to...
        * build-aux: ...this new directory.

        it depend on, and ensure that it incorporates the expansion of...
        (PACKAGE_SUBSYSTEM): ...this new macro; defined as substitution of...
        (host_os): ...this autoconf variable, set by...

        * configure.ac (AC_CANONICAL_HOST): ...this; add it, requiring...
        (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): ...`build-aux' directory reference, providing...

        * build-aux/config.guess, build-aux/config.sub: ...these new standard
        files; import them from the standard `build-aux' repository.

2010-05-17  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        * xml/profile.xml: Update to use default referencing for...
        (package-list.xml.lzma): ...this repository master catalogue.

        * All files (r0-1-alpha-2): Tag assigned.

2010-05-12  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Make provision to protect user's profile settings during upgrade.

        * Makefile.in (install): Remove `profile.xml'; replace it with...
        (install-profile): ...this new prerequisite installation goal; it
        renames the installed copy of `profile.xml' as `defaults.xml', within
        the installed package image.

        * src/pkgkeys.h (defaults_key): New key; declare it.
        * src/pkgkeys.c: Some cosmetic formatting (tabulation) adjustments.
        (defaults_key): Implement it; it refers to the `defaults.xml' file.

        * src/climain.cpp (climain): Check `profile_key' for accessibility of
        the `profile.xml' file; if [! R_OK] emit a diagnostic warning, fall
        back on `defaults_key', and attempt to load configuration from the

2010-05-11  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Add preliminary support for future `-reinstall' option.

        * src/pkgexec.cpp (pkgActionItem::Execute) [ACTION_INSTALL]: Force
        installation if `-reinstall' option is selected, overriding state of
        any prior installation; temporarily assume that this option is always
        selected, to permit proper `upgrade' operation in the absence of any
        functional `uninstall' capability, and pending implementation of a
        mechanism for interpreting user specified options.

2010-05-11  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Correct handling for "%R" macro in relative sysroot path specs.

        * src/tarproc.cpp (pkgTarArchiveProcessor): In constructor, expand the
        sysroot path specification a second time, to capture the effect of any
        embedded macros, before computing the recorded `sysroot_len' value.

2010-05-05  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>

        Handle "%" wildcard matches in package and subsystem version strings.

        Revert 2010-04-04 refactoring of tarproc.cpp and tarinst.cpp

        * src/tarinst.cpp: File removed; its content merged into...

        for the invariant `build' argument.
        (pkgVersionInfo::Free): New private inline method; it provides a NULL
        pointer safe wrapper, calling the C library `free()' function, (since

        was handled by MINGW_AC_ASSERT_MISSING.

        * configure.ac: Qualify package component types, in prerequisite
        checks handled by MINGW_AC_ASSERT_MISSING; invoke MINGW_AC_OUTPUT
        in place of AC_OUTPUT.

        * m4/missing.m4: ...this; new file incorporated from build-aux module.

        * configure.ac: Add AC_CHECK_HEADER assertions for...
        (zlib.h, bzlib.h, lzma.h): ...these; invoke MINGW_AC_ASSERT_MISSING in
        respect of each failing assertion.

        * src/pkgbase.h (pkgXmlDocument::SyncRepository): Make it public.

        * src/pkgbind.cpp (pkgRepository): New locally defined and implemented
        class; it facilitates recursive loading and parsing of package lists,
        replacing much of the original non-recursive functionality within...
        (pkgXmlDocument::BindRepositories): ...this; use it.

2010-04-04  Keith Marshall  <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
