Generally, when starting a new branch packages are not copied over
to avoid wasting disk space. So, old packages will be still pulled
in from old branch directories (under packages/). This commit adds
a function that automatically flush back old-branch packages into
the current one.
Let's say we have just bumped our repo from branch 1 to branch 2.
We have 3 packages into it that are still placed inside /packages/1.
Everything works until we decide to drop support from branch 1, in
this case, we would have to rebuild all these packages wasting a lot
of time. With "flushback" this is done automatically without touching
packages integrity.
So we have several nasty issues when using ignore-spm-downgrades here.
First of all, calculate_world_updates should get the setting directly from
SystemSettings instead of bugging developer asking for it.
Secondly, calculate_world_updates should return a 4D tuple, also containing
the matches ignored when ignore-spm-downgrades is enabled.
Moreover, Spritz packages.py getPackageItem featured an unused argument,
which has been dropped.
I know this commit is a bitch because we are talking about changing API
and affecting several files at once.
Community Repositories support was broken due to codebase changes
and introduction of SystemSettings, which now overwrites any
overridden setting. This commit fixes all the issues and also
improves the current support.
class.
As announced, SystemSettings is going to host all the Entropy
global variables. With this big commit, proxy config (and the rest
of entropy.conf data) has been moved under SystemSettings['system']
functions inside text_query are now following Python guidelines.
Update the rest of the code accordingly.
On a side effect, printPackageInfo (now print_package_info) is
now 2.5 times faster on standard print
text_query code was a bit outdated, unused arguments have been removed,
searchInstalled speed has been greatly improved (equo query orphans),
output usability has been improved (printPackageInfo)
