[Rpm-maint] converting new format rpms to something installable w/older rpm
I was out of touch from my normal internet connectivity for a few months and when I got back and d/l'd rpms and tried to use them I got an error: Failed dependencies: rpmlib(PayloadIsZstd) I tried building rpm from source, but it had several dependent devel packages that also were encoded in the new format. Was a tool also part of the format-upgrade to allow for re-encoding new rpms such that they might be readable by the old rpm? OR...any suggestions on how I can bring my system into sync with the newer format so that I can move forward? Suggestion: can rpm be enhanced to support plug-ins, where needed, like when it wants to compress/decompress a payload, ala tar's: -I, --use-compress-program=COMMAND Filter data through COMMAND. It must accept the -d option, for decompression. The argument can contain command line options. Certainly would be a great help to allow for external plug-ins in situations like this. ___ Rpm-maint mailing list Rpm-maint@lists.rpm.org http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-maint

[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Possible deadlock when macro tracing and debug is turned on (#1418)
This deadlocks for me:
```
rpm -vv --eval '%trace'
```
It hangs because rpmlog() tries to expand
`%{?_color_output}^{!?_color_output:auto}` leading to another call to rpmlog().
We could temporarily clear print_expand_trace in the printExpansion() function
but I think a better fix would be to revert commit
7f220202f20c69d6f3fd957325cdbe692bbabedd. It's weird that printExpansion() uses
rpmlog, but printMacro() does not. Also, the line is printed with multiple
rpmlog calls, leading to `D:` being spread into the output.
The commit does not include a rationale, so it's hard to tell why this was
changed in the first place.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add API for clone rpmps iterator (func rpmpsiClone) (#1359)
After mulling over this some more... as per above comments, sorry but no. There are several key iterators where we couldn't support this even if we wanted to, so adding it for one or two would only make both the C API and the C++ wrapper more inconsistent instead of improving it. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add new rpmExpandThisMacro() public method (#1414)
Names are annoying... for a theme that's used elsewhere in rpm too, mbInit() and mbFini() maybe? Also seems to me in that the mbAllocBuf() calls could be moved to the start/init-part too. But yeah much nicer this way, regardless of names. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Possible deadlock when macro tracing and debug is turned on (#1418)
Looks like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613010 was the background to diverting the spew to the debug log, but I'm not sure that is such a constructive thing to do because it now doesn't even say which macro we tripped on. rpmlog() is used in multiple places in macros.c so we'll need to somehow untangle the rpmlog color configuration from this anyway, so from that perspective it might make sense to just change printMacro() to use rpmlog() too. No firm opinion on that though... -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Possible deadlock when macro tracing and debug is turned on (#1418)
Maybe it was done because expand_trace is turned on if the macro recursion limit is reached. Hmm.
