Libzypp uses new locking api now. You can find it in Locks.h. Works
everything except unlock, which I hope implement today.
few notes about functions
- supported is reading and writing locks to file (default is file
specified in zypp.conf).
- loadLock append to locks available, if someone find useful setting new
locks instead appending (something like restore old locks for frontend)
it can be added.
- addLock locks all result of query and also store this query for later
save, also Selectabable can be locked, it uses optimally query to lock
- saving locks must frontend explicit call
- saving locks rewrite locks file (as unwanted side effect remove all
comments)
- existEmptyLocks and removeEmptyLocks is functions to maintance locks.
First say if exist some locks which doesn't lock anything and second
clean it. (ask for each lock by callback)
- if locksfile.apply (see zypp.conf) is on (default) then after start of
zypp locks is loaded and applied
overview of new file format
structure is 'attribute: value', locks (queries) separated by empty line
attribute can be global_string (see addString for PoolQuery),
string_type (values can be exact, substring, regex, glob), repo (repo
allias), kind (Resolvable kind), require_all (if all attribute must
match), case_sensitive (search case sensitive), install_status( values
can be all, installed, not-installed) and all SolvAttributes with
replaced colon ( s/:/_/g ). for example look [0].
default locks file path is /etc/zypp/locks
