It's well-tested here, and works with the + slackpkg that's in -current now, but I don't know about slackpkg+ so that's + another reason to let it cool down here first. The purpose of this update + is to migrate the package database and directories from /var/log to + /var/lib/pkgtools. /var/log was never a good place for this data, as it is + considered by many to be a directory that could be wiped to free up some + space. Originally the package database was in /var/adm, but the FSSTND + (later FHS) group decided that directory should be a symlink to /var/log, + and I went along with that since it was years ago and I was a n00b and didn't + know any better. /var/lib/pkgtools will be a better and safer location. + The removed_packages and removed_scripts directories are really just logs + that aren't actually used for anything - those will remain under /var/log, + but moved into /var/log/pkgtools. Everything under /var/log will be + considered potentially non-permanent by the pkgtools - if any directories or + symlinks disappear from there, the pkgtools will automatically recreate them + as needed. In fact, the migration process will create symlinks from all the + old directory locations to the new ones, so anything that expects the old + locations (including slackpkg, for now) should continue to work. Once this + moves into the main tree, the plan is to fix other packages to use the new + installer script directory (/var/lib/pkgtools/setup) and change the installer + and slackpkg to use the new native locations for everything. When slackpkg + is changed over to use the new native locations, I'll also make sure to float + that in testing/ for a few days before moving it to the main tree to avoid + more unintentional disruption to slackpkg+ users. + Be aware that the package database migration is a one-way operation, but even + so if you later downgrade to an older version of the pkgtools it will still + work through the compatibility symlinks. + </pre>]]> + </description> + </item> + <item> <title>Tue, 19 Jun 2018 05:47:22 GMT</title> <pubDate>Tue, 19 Jun 2018 05:47:22 GMT</pubDate> <link>https://git.slackware.nl/current/tag/?h=20180619054722</link> |
