As noted in the fakechroot(1) man page, fakeroot and fakechroot
might wrap the same C library functions. Arch Linux hit this
recently with calls to stat(). It is important to start the fake
environment in proper order - fakeroot should be started inside
fakechroot.

Using meson.source_root() and meson.build_root() are deprectated in
meson-0.56. Using current_source_dir() or current_build_dir() (which
have been available in all Meson versions) would require manually
adding "../" in some places. Instead, use project_source_root() and
project_build_root() and require meson-0.56.

This allows architecture to be multivalued. On x86-64 machines, this
could be something like:
Architecture = x86-64-v3 x86-64
We use the first specified Architecture value in mirrorlist $arch
variable replacement, as this is backwards-compatible and sane.

Running the testsuite using "PACTEST_VALGRIND=1 ninja test -C build", I ran
into the following failure:
161/332 smoke001.py TIMEOUT 30.02 s
I figure an i7 @ 3.10GHz should be enough to run our testsuite... so boost
the meson test timeout to 120 seconds (which should be enough time for

In autotools, if we wanted to run tests with valgrind, we used some Make
magic which passed arguments to pactest.py, but that doesn't work in
meson, because all arguments are encoded at configure time. Instead,
let's short-circuit the build runner logic entirely, and teach pactest
to default to running valgrind, when it detects an environment variable
set independent of the build system.
To run the tests with valgrind, we can now use:
PACTEST_VALGRIND=1 meson test -C builddir/
or
PACTEST_VALGRIND=1 make check
It is also possible, but confusing/inconsistent, to use
make check PY_LOG_FLAGS=--valgrind
We *could* add a meson option -Dvalgrind=true, but that is annoying to
reconfigure between test runs, and overall the consensus is it seems
simpler to opt in each time we want to run valgrind, as was already the
case.

Adds a "?" suffix that can be used to indicate that an option's argument is
optional.
This allows options to have a default behaviour when the user doesn't
specify one, e.g.: --color=[when] being able to behave like --color=auto
when only --color is passed
Options with optional arguments given on the command line will be returned
in the form "--opt=optarg" and "-o=optarg". Despite that not being the
syntax for passing an argument with a shortopt (trying to pass -o=foo
would make -o's argument "=foo"), this is done to allow the caller to split
the option and its optarg easily

system() runs the provided command via a shell, which is subject to
command injection. Even though pacman already provides a mechanism to
sign and verify the databases containing the urls, certain distributions
have yet to get their act together and start signing databases, leaving
them vulnerable to MITM attacks. Replacing the system call with an
almost equivalent exec call removes the possibility of a shell-injection
attack for those users.

If we use make dist to create the official, signed release tarballs,
those will not have meson build files by default since autotools doesn't
know what they are.
Also distribute all src/common/ files. We never strictly needed any of
them to be distributed with autotools, because the dist tarball
dereferences the symlinks (???), but only some of them were being
distributed, and meson needs them to be in the right location as we only
build libcommon from the primary files.

This includes a patch from Andrew to fix pactest's TAP output for
subtests. Original TAP support in meson was added in 0.50, but 0.51
contains a bugfix that ensures the test still work with the --verbose
flag passed to meson test, so let's depend on that.
Make it clearer that the targets are matched against both directories
and regular files and free up File to potentially refer specifically to
regular files in the future. File is retained as a deprecated alias for
Path for the time being to avoid breaking existing hooks and will be
removed in a future release.

Previously, pacman's test suite would fail when compiled without
signature support.
Adds a require_capability method to pmtest objects. Currently
recognized values are 'gpg', 'curl', and 'nls'; although only gpg is
used presently. Missing features are indicated by running pactest with
one of the --without-<feature> options.
This modifies pmenv to run each case as independent tests. Previously,
a single pmenv could run multiple tests, combining there output into
a single TAP stream but making it impossible to properly skip an entire
test case. This change does not affect running pactest.py with a single
test (as both autotools and meson do), but will affect anybody manually
running pactest.py with multiple tests at once.

Commit 2ee7a8d89a replaced a manual check
for a local package with a check for the "oldpkg" member, which gets set
at the beginning of the transaction. If the package was also in the
remove list, such as when a package gets replaced, it would no longer be
in the local db and pacman would try to remove it twice, resulting in
superfluous error messages.

Provide both build systems in parallel for now, to ensure that we work
out all the differences between the two. Some time from now, we'll give
up on autotools.
Meson tends to be faster and probably easier to read/maintain. On my
machine, the full meson configure+build+install takes a little under
half as long as a similar autotools-based invocation.
Building with meson is a two step process. First, configure the build:
meson build
Then, compile the project:
ninja -C build
There's some mild differences in functionality between meson and
autotools. specifically:
1) No singular update-po target. meson only generates individual
update-po targets for each textdomain (of which we have 3). To make
this easier, there's a build-aux/update-po script which finds all
update-po targets and runs them.
2) No 'make dist' equivalent. Just run 'git archive' to generate a
suitable tarball for distribution.
If poll() is interrupted by a signal, alpm was closing the socket it
uses for listening to script/hook output. This would drop script output
at the least and kill the script at the worst.

The only useful modelines are the ones enforcing the project coding
standards for indentation style (and "maybe" filetype/syntax, but
everything except the asciidoc manpages and makepkg.conf is already

If the user replaces a directory with a symlink, libalpm would get
confused because the trailing slash causes system calls to resolve the

Even though libalpm does not support this, it should not be giving

Also adds an overflow check.
