resolvedeps is negligent: resolvedeps.py
 

Hi!
This is a not-to-commit pactest, I just refer to this old thread...:
http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-August/009072.html
I don't know whether we should fix this or not... This is not a critical bug,
just resolvedeps is a bit negligent, but checkdeps will report its negligence
(however, pacman doesn't seem to be very informative...).
By fixing this the code would be cleaner, more clever, but _notably_ slower, so
I still don't know what to do... What do you think?

---resolvedeps.py---
self.description = "resolvedeps test"

sp1 = pmpkg("pkg1")
sp1.depends = [ "pkg2>=2.0-1" , "provision" ]
self.addpkg2db("sync", sp1)

sp2 = pmpkg("pkg2", "2.0-1")
self.addpkg2db("sync", sp2)

sp3 = pmpkg("provision")
self.addpkg2db("sync", sp3)

lp = pmpkg("pkg2", "1.0-1")
lp.provides = [ "provision" ]
self.addpkg2db("local", lp)

self.args = "-S pkg1 pkg2"

self.addrule("PACMAN_RETCODE=0")
self.addrule("PKG_EXIST=pkg1")
self.addrule("PKG_EXIST=pkg2")
self.addrule("PKG_VERSION=pkg2|2.0-1")
self.addrule("PKG_EXIST=provision")

Yes I noticed, I think this little bug was in your original checkdeps patch.
At the end of sync_prepare, you should do s/FREELIST(deps);/*data = deps;/
Then the missing dependencies message will magically appear again in the
frontend :)

I think it would be interesting to see the patch you propose for fixing it,
and a benchmark for measuring how slower it is :)
