I've rolled out version 20180610 of Parabola dbscripts.
With the dbscripts updates last month, we had about a week and a half
of breakage with db-import. I've gone through the logs, emails, and
bug tracker discussions, and have identified 11 separate bugs that we
encountered during that time. I then wrote tests, and verified that
they caught those 11 bugs. So this release, and all future releases,
should have a higher expectation of stability. Yay.
However, adding tests hardly demands a new release, we have some real
changes too.
Changes from 20180507.1 to 20180610:
- config:
* rename PKGEXT to PKGEXTS, to avoid confusion with
makepkg.conf:PKGEXT
* change the default TMPDIR back to /tmp, from /srv/repo/tmp (see
the change in db-import-pkg below)
- db-import-pkg:
* remove the requirement that config:TMPDIR be on the same
filesystem as config:FTP_BASE
* more code cleanup
- minor global code cleanups from Arch.
On winston.parabola.nu, I have
- run: sudo pacman -Syu --ignore=linux-libre-lts

Happy hacking,

** dbscripts
Bugs a-e were pre-existing subtle bugs. Which makes sense; they were
unnoticed. Bugs f-j were show-stopper bugs. Which makes sense; they
were fixed quickly. I actually didn't notice k until 2018-06-01; I
just accidentally fixed it.
