31 libsolv-bindings \- access libsolv from perl/python/ruby
34 Libsolv\(cqs language bindings offer an abstract, object orientated interface to the library\&. The supported languages are currently perl, python, and ruby\&. All example code (except in the specifics sections, of course) lists first the \(lqC\-ish\(rq interface, then the syntax for perl, python, and ruby (in that order)\&.
37 Libsolv\(cqs perl bindings can be loaded with the following statement:
49 Objects are either created by calling the new() method on a class or they are returned by calling methods on other objects\&.
55 my \fI$pool\fR \fB= solv::Pool\->new()\fR;
56 my \fI$repo\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->add_repo("my_first_repo")\fR;
62 Swig encapsulates all objects as tied hashes, thus the attributes can be accessed by treating the object as standard hash reference:
68 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{appdata} = 42\fR;
69 \fBprintf "appdata is %d\en",\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{appdata}\fR;
75 A special exception to this are iterator objects, they are encapsulated as tied arrays so that it is possible to iterate with a for() statement:
81 my \fI$iter\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->solvables_iter()\fR;
82 \fBfor my\fR \fI$solvable\fR \fB(\fR\fI@$iter\fR\fB) { \&.\&.\&. }\fR;
88 As a downside of this approach, iterator objects cannot have attributes\&.
90 If an array needs to be passed to a method it is usually done by reference, if a method returns an array it returns it on the stack:
96 my \fI@problems\fR \fB=\fR \fI$solver\fR\fB\->solve(\e\fR\fI@jobs\fR\fB)\fR;
102 Due to a bug in swig, stringification does not work for libsolv\(cqs objects\&. Instead, you have to call the object\(cqs str() method\&.
108 \fBprint\fR \fI$dep\fR\fB\->str() \&. "\e\fR\fIn\fR\fB"\fR;
114 Swig implements all constants as numeric variables (instead of the more natural constant subs), so don\(cqt forget the leading \(lq$\(rq when accessing a constant\&. Also do not forget to prepend the namespace of the constant:
120 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->set_flag($solv::Pool::POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS, 1)\fR;
125 .SH "PYTHON SPECIFICS"
127 The python bindings can be loaded with:
139 Objects are either created by calling the constructor method for a class or they are returned by calling methods on other objects\&.
145 \fIpool\fR \fB= solv\&.Pool()\fR
146 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.add_repo("my_first_repo")\fR
152 Attributes can be accessed as usual:
158 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata = 42\fR
159 \fBprint "appdata is %d" % (\fR\fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata)\fR
165 Iterators also work as expected:
171 \fBfor\fR \fIsolvable\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables_iter():\fR
177 Arrays are passed and returned as list objects:
183 \fIjobs\fR \fB= []\fR
184 \fIproblems\fR \fB=\fR \fIsolver\fR\fB\&.solve(\fR\fIjobs\fR\fB)\fR
190 The bindings define stringification for many classes, some also have a \fIrepr\fR method to ease debugging\&.
196 \fBprint\fR \fIdep\fR
197 \fBprint repr(\fR\fIrepo\fR\fB)\fR
203 Constants are attributes of the classes:
209 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_flag(solv\&.Pool\&.POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS, 1)\fR;
216 The ruby bindings can be loaded with:
222 \fBrequire \*(Aqsolv\*(Aq\fR
228 Objects are either created by calling the new method on a class or they are returned by calling methods on other objects\&. Note that all classes start with an uppercase letter in ruby, so the class is called \(lqSolv\(rq\&.
234 \fIpool\fR \fB= Solv::Pool\&.new\fR
235 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.add_repo("my_first_repo")\fR
241 Attributes can be accessed as usual:
247 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata = 42\fR
248 \fBputs "appdata is #{\fR\fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata}"\fR
254 Iterators also work as expected:
260 \fBfor\fR \fIsolvable\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables_iter() do \&.\&.\&.\fR
266 Arrays are passed and returned as array objects:
272 \fIjobs\fR \fB= []\fR
273 \fIproblems\fR \fB=\fR \fIsolver\fR\fB\&.solve(\fR\fIjobs\fR\fB)\fR
279 Most classes define a to_s method, so objects can be easily stringified\&. Many also define an inspect() method\&.
286 \fBputs\fR \fIrepo\fR\fB\&.inspect\fR
292 Constants live in the namespace of the class they belong to:
298 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_flag(Solv::Pool::POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS, 1)\fR;
304 Note that boolean methods have an added trailing \(lq?\(rq, to be consistent with other ruby modules:
310 \fBputs "empty" if\fR \fIrepo\fR\fB\&.isempty?\fR
317 Libsolv\(cqs tcl bindings can be loaded with the following statement:
323 \fBpackage require solv\fR
329 Objects are either created by calling class name prefixed with \(lqnew_\(rq, or they are returned by calling methods on other objects\&.
335 \fBset pool [solv::new_Pool]\fR
336 \fBset repo [\fR\fI$pool\fR \fBadd_repo "my_first_repo"]\fR
342 Swig provides a \(lqcget\(rq method to read object attributes, and a \(lqconfigure\(rq method to write them:
348 \fI$pool\fR \fBconfigure \-appdata 42\fR
349 \fBputs "appdata is [\fR\fI$pool\fR \fBcget \-appdata]"\fR
355 The tcl bindings provide a little helper to work with iterators in a foreach style:
361 \fBset iter [\fR\fI$pool\fR \fBsolvables_iter]\fR
362 \fBsolv::iter s\fR \fI$iter\fR \fB{ \&.\&.\&. }\fR
368 libsolv\(cqs arrays are mapped to tcl\(cqs lists:
374 \fBset jobs [list\fR \fI$job1 $job2\fR\fB]\fR
375 \fBset problems [\fR\fI$solver\fR \fBsolve\fR \fI$jobs\fR\fB]\fR
376 \fBputs "We have [llength\fR \fI$problems\fR\fB] problems\&.\&.\&."\fR
382 Stringification is done by calling the object\(cqs \(lqstr\(rq method\&.
388 \fBputs [\fR\fI$dep\fR \fBstr]\fR
394 There is one exception: you have to use \(lqstringify\(rq for Datamatch objects, as swig reports a clash with the \(lqstr\(rq attribute\&. Some objects also support a \(lq==\(rq method for equality tests, and a \(lq!=\(rq method\&.
396 Swig implements all constants as numeric variables, constants belonging to a libsolv class are prefixed with the class name:
402 \fI$pool\fR \fBset_flag\fR \fI$solv::Pool_POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS\fR \fB1\fR
403 \fBputs [\fR\fI$solvable\fR \fBlookup_str\fR \fI$solv::SOLVABLE_SUMMARY\fR\fB]\fR
410 This is the main namespace of the library, you cannot create objects of this type but it contains some useful constants\&.
413 Relational flag constants, the first three can be or\-ed together
417 the \(lqless than\(rq bit
422 the \(lqequals to\(rq bit
427 the \(lqgreater than\(rq bit
432 used for relations that describe an extra architecture filter, the version part of the relation is interpreted as architecture\&.
439 Access the meta section of a repository or repodata area\&. This is like an extra Solvable that has the Id SOLVID_META\&.
444 Use the data position stored inside of the pool instead of accessing some solvable by Id\&. The bindings have the Datapos objects as an abstraction mechanism, so you do not need this constant\&.
456 Always one, describes the empty string
461 The keyname Id of the name of the solvable\&.
466 see the libsolv\-constantids manpage for a list of fixed Ids\&.
470 The pool is libsolv\(cqs central resource manager\&. A pool consists of Solvables, Repositories, Dependencies, each indexed by Ids\&.
478 my \fI$pool\fR \fB= solv::Pool\->new()\fR;
479 \fIpool\fR \fB= solv\&.Pool()\fR
480 \fIpool\fR \fB= Solv::Pool\&.new()\fR
486 Create a new pool instance\&. In most cases you just need one pool\&. Note that the returned object "owns" the pool, i\&.e\&. if the object is freed, the pool is also freed\&. You can use the disown method to break this ownership relation\&.
493 \fBvoid *appdata;\fR /* read/write */
494 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{appdata}\fR
495 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata\fR
496 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.appdata\fR
502 Application specific data that may be used in any way by the code using the pool\&.
508 \fBSolvable solvables[];\fR /* read only */
509 my \fI$solvable\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{solvables}\->[\fR\fI$solvid\fR\fB]\fR;
510 \fIsolvable\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables[\fR\fIsolvid\fR\fB]\fR
511 \fIsolvable\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables[\fR\fIsolvid\fR\fB]\fR
517 Look up a Solvable by its id\&.
523 \fBRepo repos[];\fR /* read only */
524 my \fI$repo\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{repos}\->[\fR\fI$repoid\fR\fB]\fR;
525 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.repos[\fR\fIrepoid\fR\fB]\fR
526 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.repos[\fR\fIrepoid\fR\fB]\fR
532 Look up a Repository by its id\&.
538 \fBRepo *installed;\fR /* read/write */
539 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{installed} =\fR \fI$repo\fR;
540 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.installed =\fR \fIrepo\fR
541 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.installed =\fR \fIrepo\fR
547 Define which repository contains all the installed packages\&.
553 \fBconst char *errstr;\fR /* read only */
554 my \fI$err\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->{errstr}\fR;
555 \fIerr\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.errstr\fR
556 \fIerr\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.errstr\fR
562 Return the last error string that was stored in the pool\&.
565 \fBPOOL_FLAG_PROMOTEEPOCH\fR
567 Promote the epoch of the providing dependency to the requesting dependency if it does not contain an epoch\&. Used at some time in old rpm versions, modern systems should never need this\&.
570 \fBPOOL_FLAG_FORBIDSELFCONFLICTS\fR
572 Disallow the installation of packages that conflict with themselves\&. Debian always allows self\-conflicting packages, rpm used to forbid them but switched to also allowing them recently\&.
575 \fBPOOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESPROVIDES\fR
577 Make obsolete type dependency match against provides instead of just the name and version of packages\&. Very old versions of rpm used the name/version, then it got switched to provides and later switched back again to just name/version\&.
580 \fBPOOL_FLAG_IMPLICITOBSOLETEUSESPROVIDES\fR
582 An implicit obsoletes is the internal mechanism to remove the old package on an update\&. The default is to remove all packages with the same name, rpm\-5 switched to also removing packages providing the same name\&.
585 \fBPOOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS\fR
587 Rpm\(cqs multilib implementation (used in RedHat and Fedora) distinguishes between 32bit and 64bit packages (the terminology is that they have a different color)\&. If obsoleteusescolors is set, packages with different colors will not obsolete each other\&.
590 \fBPOOL_FLAG_IMPLICITOBSOLETEUSESCOLORS\fR
592 Same as POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS, but used to find out if packages of the same name can be installed in parallel\&. For current Fedora systems, POOL_FLAG_OBSOLETEUSESCOLORS should be false and POOL_FLAG_IMPLICITOBSOLETEUSESCOLORS should be true (this is the default if FEDORA is defined when libsolv is compiled)\&.
595 \fBPOOL_FLAG_NOINSTALLEDOBSOLETES\fR
597 New versions of rpm consider the obsoletes of installed packages when checking for dependency, thus you may not install a package that is obsoleted by some other installed package, unless you also erase the other package\&.
600 \fBPOOL_FLAG_HAVEDISTEPOCH\fR
602 Mandriva added a new field called distepoch that gets checked in version comparison if the epoch/version/release of two packages are the same\&.
605 \fBPOOL_FLAG_NOOBSOLETESMULTIVERSION\fR
607 If a package is installed in multiversionmode, rpm used to ignore both the implicit obsoletes and the obsolete dependency of a package\&. This was changed to ignoring just the implicit obsoletes, thus you may install multiple versions of the same name, but obsoleted packages still get removed\&.
610 \fBPOOL_FLAG_ADDFILEPROVIDESFILTERED\fR
612 Make the addfileprovides method only add files from the standard locations (i\&.e\&. the \(lqbin\(rq and \(lqetc\(rq directories)\&. This is useful if you have only few packages that use non\-standard file dependencies, but you still want the fast speed that addfileprovides() generates\&.
621 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->free()\fR;
622 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.free()\fR
623 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.free()\fR
629 Force a free of the pool\&. After this call, you must not access any object that still references the pool\&.
636 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->disown()\fR;
637 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.disown()\fR
638 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.disown()\fR
644 Break the ownership relation between the binding object and the pool\&. After this call, the pool will not get freed even if the object goes out of scope\&. This also means that you must manually call the free method to free the pool data\&.
650 \fBvoid setdebuglevel(int\fR \fIlevel\fR\fB)\fR
651 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->setdebuglevel(\fR\fI$level\fR\fB)\fR;
652 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.setdebuglevel(\fR\fIlevel\fR\fB)\fR
653 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.setdebuglevel(\fR\fIlevel\fR\fB)\fR
659 Set the debug level\&. A value of zero means no debug output, the higher the value, the more output is generated\&.
665 \fBint set_flag(int\fR \fIflag\fR\fB, int\fR \fIvalue\fR\fB)\fR
666 my \fI$oldvalue\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->set_flag(\fR\fI$flag\fR\fB,\fR \fI$value\fR\fB)\fR;
667 \fIoldvalue\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_flag(\fR\fIflag\fR\fB,\fR \fIvalue\fR\fB)\fR
668 \fIoldvalue\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_flag(\fR\fIflag\fR\fB,\fR \fIvalue\fR\fB)\fR
678 \fBint get_flag(int\fR \fIflag\fR\fB)\fR
679 my \fI$value\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->get_flag(\fR\fI$flag\fR\fB)\fR;
680 \fIvalue\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.get_flag(\fR\fIflag\fR\fB)\fR
681 \fIvalue\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.get_flag(\fR\fIflag\fR\fB)\fR
687 Set/get a pool specific flag\&. The flags define how the system works, e\&.g\&. how the package manager treats obsoletes\&. The default flags should be sane for most applications, but in some cases you may want to tweak a flag, for example if you want to solv package dependencies for some other system than yours\&.
693 \fBvoid set_rootdir(const char *\fR\fIrootdir\fR\fB)\fR
694 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->set_rootdir(\fR\fIrootdir\fR\fB)\fR;
695 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_rootdir(\fR\fIrootdir\fR\fB)\fR
696 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.set_rootdir(\fR\fIrootdir\fR\fB)\fR
706 \fBconst char *get_rootdir()\fR
707 my \fI$rootdir\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->get_rootdir()\fR;
708 \fIrootdir\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.get_rootdir()\fR
709 \fIrootdir\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.get_rootdir()\fR
715 Set/get the rootdir to use\&. This is useful if you want package management to work only in some directory, for example if you want to setup a chroot jail\&. Note that the rootdir will only be prepended to file paths if the \fBREPO_USE_ROOTDIR\fR flag is used\&.
721 \fBvoid setarch(const char *\fR\fIarch\fR \fB= 0)\fR
722 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->setarch()\fR;
723 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.setarch()\fR
724 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.setarch()\fR
730 Set the architecture for your system\&. The architecture is used to determine which packages are installable\&. It defaults to the result of \(lquname \-m\(rq\&.
736 \fBRepo add_repo(const char *\fR\fIname\fR\fB)\fR
737 \fI$repo\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->add_repo(\fR\fI$name\fR\fB)\fR;
738 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.add_repo(\fR\fIname\fR\fB)\fR
739 \fIrepo\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.add_repo(\fR\fIname\fR\fB)\fR
745 Add a Repository with the specified name to the pool\&. The repository is empty on creation, use the repository methods to populate it with packages\&.
751 \fBRepoiterator repos_iter()\fR
752 \fBfor my\fR \fI$repo\fR \fB(\fR\fI@\fR\fB{\fR\fI$pool\fR\fB\->repos_iter()})\fR
753 \fBfor\fR \fIrepo\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.repos_iter():\fR
754 \fBfor\fR \fIrepo\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.repos_iter()\fR
760 Iterate over the existing repositories\&.
766 \fBSolvableiterator solvables_iter()\fR
767 \fBfor my\fR \fI$solvable\fR \fB(\fR\fI@\fR\fB{\fR\fI$pool\fR\fB\->solvables_iter()})\fR
768 \fBfor\fR \fIsolvable\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables_iter():\fR
769 \fBfor\fR \fIsolvable\fR \fBin\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.solvables_iter()\fR
775 Iterate over the existing solvables\&.
781 \fBDep Dep(const char *\fR\fIstr\fR\fB, bool\fR \fIcreate\fR \fB= 1)\fR
782 my \fI$dep\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->Dep(\fR\fI$string\fR\fB)\fR;
783 \fIdep\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Dep(\fR\fIstring\fR\fB)\fR
784 \fIdep\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Dep(\fR\fIstring\fR\fB)\fR
790 Create an object describing a string or dependency\&. If the string is currently not in the pool and \fIcreate\fR is false, \fBundef\fR/\fBNone\fR/\fBnil\fR is returned\&.
796 \fBvoid addfileprovides()\fR
797 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->addfileprovides()\fR;
798 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.addfileprovides()\fR
799 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.addfileprovides()\fR
809 \fBId *addfileprovides_queue()\fR
810 my \fI@ids\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->addfileprovides_queue()\fR;
811 \fIids\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.addfileprovides_queue()\fR
812 \fIids\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.addfileprovides_queue()\fR
818 Some package managers like rpm allow dependencies on files contained in other packages\&. To allow libsolv to deal with those dependencies in an efficient way, you need to call the addfileprovides method after creating and reading all repositories\&. This method will scan all dependency for file names and then scan all packages for matching files\&. If a filename has been matched, it will be added to the provides list of the corresponding package\&. The addfileprovides_queue variant works the same way but returns an array containing all file dependencies\&. This information can be stored in the meta section of the repositories to speed up the next time the repository is loaded and addfileprovides is called\&.
824 \fBvoid createwhatprovides()\fR
825 \fI$pool\fR\fB\->createwhatprovides()\fR;
826 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.createwhatprovides()\fR
827 \fIpool\fR\fB\&.createwhatprovides()\fR
833 Create the internal \(lqwhatprovides\(rq hash over all of the provides of all packages\&. This method must be called before doing any lookups on provides\&. It\(cqs encouraged to do it right after all repos are set up, usually right after the call to addfileprovides()\&.
839 \fBSolvable *whatprovides(DepId\fR \fIdep\fR\fB)\fR
840 my \fI@solvables\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->whatprovides(\fR\fI$dep\fR\fB)\fR;
841 \fIsolvables\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.whatprovides(\fR\fIdep\fR\fB)\fR
842 \fIsolvables\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.whatprovides(\fR\fIdep\fR\fB)\fR
848 Return all solvables that provide the specified dependency\&. You can use either a Dep object or a simple Id as argument\&.
854 \fBId *matchprovidingids(const char *\fR\fImatch\fR\fB, int\fR \fIflags\fR\fB)\fR
855 my \fI@ids\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->matchprovidingids(\fR\fI$match\fR\fB,\fR \fI$flags\fR\fB)\fR;
856 \fIids\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.matchprovidingids(\fR\fImatch\fR\fB,\fR \fIflags\fR\fB)\fR
857 \fIids\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.matchprovidingids(\fR\fImatch\fR\fB,\fR \fIflags\fR\fB)\fR
863 Search the names of all provides and return the ones matching the specified string\&. See the Dataiterator class for the allowed flags\&.
869 \fBId towhatprovides(Id *\fR\fIids\fR\fB)\fR
870 my \fI$offset\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->towhatprovides(\e\fR\fI@ids\fR\fB)\fR;
871 \fIoffset\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.towhatprovides(\fR\fIids\fR\fB)\fR
872 \fIoffset\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.towhatprovides(\fR\fIids\fR\fB)\fR
878 \(lqInternalize\(rq an array containing Ids\&. The returned value can be used to create solver jobs working on a specific set of packages\&. See the Solver class for more information\&.
884 \fBbool isknownarch(DepId\fR \fIid\fR\fB)\fR
885 my \fI$bool\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->isknownarch(\fR\fI$id\fR\fB)\fR;
886 \fIbool\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.isknownarch(\fR\fIid\fR\fB)\fR
887 \fIbool\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.isknownarch?(\fR\fIid\fR\fB)\fR
893 Return true if the specified Id describes a known architecture\&.
899 \fBSolver Solver()\fR
900 my \fI$solver\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->Solver()\fR;
901 \fIsolver\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Solver()\fR
902 \fIsolver\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Solver()\fR
908 Create a new solver object\&.
914 \fBJob Job(int\fR \fIhow\fR\fB, Id\fR \fIwhat\fR\fB)\fR
915 my \fI$job\fR \fB=\fR \fI$pool\fR\fB\->Job(\fR\fI$how\fR\fB,\fR \fI$what\fR\fB)\fR;
916 \fIjob\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Job(\fR\fIhow\fR\fB,\fR \fIwhat\fR\fB)\fR
917 \fIjob\fR \fB=\fR \fIpool\fR\fB\&.Job(\fR\fIhow\fR\fB,\fR \fIwhat\fR\fB)\fR

1011 Set the callback function called when repository metadata needs to be loaded on demand\&. To make use of this feature, you need to create repodata stubs that tell the library which data is available but not loaded\&. If later on the data needs to be accessed, the callback function is called with a repodata argument\&. You can then load the data (maybe fetching it first from a remote server)\&. The callback should return true if the data has been made available\&.

3187 Jobs are the way to specify to the dependency solver what to do\&. Most of the times jobs will get created by calling the jobs() method on a Selection object, but there is also a Job() constructor in the Pool class\&.
3190 Selection constants:
3192 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE\fR
3194 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is the id of a solvable\&.
3197 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_NAME\fR
3199 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is the id of a package name\&.
3202 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_PROVIDES\fR
3204 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is the id of a package provides\&.
3207 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_ONE_OF\fR
3209 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is an offset into the \(lqwhatprovides\(rq data, created by calling the towhatprovides() pool method\&.
3212 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_REPO\fR
3214 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is the id of a repository\&.
3217 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_ALL\fR
3219 The \(lqwhat\(rq part is ignored, all packages are selected\&.
3222 \fBSOLVER_SOLVABLE_SELECTMASK\fR
3224 A mask containing all the above selection bits\&.
3234 \fBSOLVER_INSTALL\fR
3236 Install a package of the specified set of packages\&. It tries to install the best matching package (i\&.e\&. the highest version of the packages from the repositories with the highest priority)\&.
3241 Erase all of the packages from the specified set\&. If a package is not installed, erasing it will keep it from getting installed\&.
3246 Update the matching installed packages to their best version\&. If none of the specified packages are installed, try to update the installed packages to the specified versions\&. See the section about targeted updates about more information\&.
3249 \fBSOLVER_WEAKENDEPS\fR
3251 Allow to break the dependencies of the matching packages\&. Handle with care\&.
3254 \fBSOLVER_MULTIVERSION\fR
3256 Mark the matched packages for multiversion install\&. If they get to be installed because of some other job, the installation will keep the old version of the package installed (for rpm this is done by using \(lq\-i\(rq instead of \(lq\-U\(rq)\&.
3261 Do not change the state of the matched packages, i\&.e\&. when they are installed they stay installed, if not they are not selected for installation\&.
3264 \fBSOLVER_DISTUPGRADE\fR
3266 Update the matching installed packages to the best version included in one of the repositories\&. After this operation, all come from one of the available repositories except orphaned packages\&. Orphaned packages are packages that have no relation to the packages in the repositories, i\&.e\&. no package in the repositories have the same name or obsolete the orphaned package\&. This action brings the installed packages in sync with the ones in the repository\&. By default it also turns of arch/vendor/version locking for the affected packages to simulate a fresh installation\&. This means that distupgrade can actually downgrade packages if only lower versions of a package are available in the repositories\&. You can tweak this behavior with the SOLVER_FLAG_DUP_ solver flags\&.
3269 \fBSOLVER_DROP_ORPHANED\fR
3271 Erase all the matching installed packages if they are orphaned\&. This only makes sense if there is a \(lqdistupgrade all packages\(rq job\&. The default is to erase orphaned packages only if they block the installation of other packages\&.
3276 Fix dependency problems of matching installed packages\&. The default is to ignore dependency problems for installed packages\&.
3279 \fBSOLVER_USERINSTALLED\fR
3281 The matching installed packages are considered to be installed by a user, thus not installed to fulfill some dependency\&. This is needed input for the calculation of unneeded packages for jobs that have the SOLVER_CLEANDEPS flag set\&.
3284 \fBSOLVER_ALLOWUNINSTALL\fR
3286 Allow the solver to deinstall the matching installed packages if they get into the way of resolving a dependency\&. This is like the SOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_UNINSTALL flag, but limited to a specific set of packages\&.
3291 Prefer the specified packages if the solver encounters an alternative\&. If a job contains multiple matching favor/disfavor elements, the last one takes precedence\&.
3294 \fBSOLVER_DISFAVOR\fR
3296 Avoid the specified packages if the solver encounters an alternative\&. This can also be used to block recommended or supplemented packages from being installed\&.
3299 \fBSOLVER_JOBMASK\fR
3301 A mask containing all the above action bits\&.
3304 Action modifier constants:
3308 Makes the job a weak job\&. The solver tries to fulfill weak jobs, but does not report a problem if it is not possible to do so\&.
3311 \fBSOLVER_ESSENTIAL\fR
3313 Makes the job an essential job\&. If there is a problem with the job, the solver will not propose to remove the job as one solution (unless all other solutions are also to remove essential jobs)\&.
3316 \fBSOLVER_CLEANDEPS\fR
3318 The solver will try to also erase all packages dragged in through dependencies when erasing the package\&. This needs SOLVER_USERINSTALLED jobs to maximize user satisfaction\&.
3321 \fBSOLVER_FORCEBEST\fR
3323 Insist on the best package for install, update, and distupgrade jobs\&. If this flag is not used, the solver will use the second\-best package if the best package cannot be installed for some reason\&. When this flag is used, the solver will generate a problem instead\&.
3326 \fBSOLVER_TARGETED\fR
3328 Forces targeted operation update and distupgrade jobs\&. See the section about targeted updates about more information\&.
3335 The job specified the exact epoch and version of the package set\&.
3340 The job specified the exact epoch, version, and release of the package set\&.
3343 \fBSOLVER_SETARCH\fR
3345 The job specified the exact architecture of the packages from the set\&.
3348 \fBSOLVER_SETVENDOR\fR
3350 The job specified the exact vendor of the packages from the set\&.
3353 \fBSOLVER_SETREPO\fR
3355 The job specified the exact repository of the packages from the set\&.
3358 \fBSOLVER_SETNAME\fR
3360 The job specified the exact name of the packages from the set\&.
3363 \fBSOLVER_NOAUTOSET\fR
3365 Turn of automatic set flag generation for SOLVER_SOLVABLE jobs\&.
3368 \fBSOLVER_SETMASK\fR
3370 A mask containing all the above set bits\&.

3481 .SS "TARGETED UPDATES"
3483 Libsolv has two modes for upgrades and distupgrade: targeted and untargeted\&. Untargeted mode means that the installed packages from the specified set will be updated to the best version\&. Targeted means that packages that can be updated to a package in the specified set will be updated to the best package of the set\&.
3485 Here\(cqs an example to explain the subtle difference\&. Suppose that you have package A installed in version "1\&.1", "A\-1\&.2" is available in one of the repositories and there is also package "B" that obsoletes package A\&.
3487 An untargeted update of "A" will update the installed "A\-1\&.1" to package "B", because that is the newest version (B obsoletes A and is thus newer)\&.
3489 A targeted update of "A" will update "A\-1\&.1" to "A\-1\&.2", as the set of packages contains both "A\-1\&.1" and "A\-1\&.2", and "A\-1\&.2" is the newer one\&.
3491 An untargeted update of "B" will do nothing, as "B" is not installed\&.
3493 An targeted update of "B" will update "A\-1\&.1" to "B"\&.
3495 Note that the default is to do "auto\-targeting", thus if the specified set of packages does not include an installed package, the solver will assume targeted operation even if SOLVER_TARGETED is not used\&.
3497 This mostly matches the intent of the user, with one exception: In the example above, an update of "A\-1\&.2" will update "A\-1\&.1" to "A\-1\&.2" (targeted mode), but a second update of "A\-1\&.2" will suddenly update to "B", as untargeted mode is chosen because "A\-1\&.2" is now installed\&.
3499 If you want to have full control over when targeting mode is chosen, turn off auto\-targeting with the SOLVER_FLAG_NO_AUTOTARGET solver option\&. In that case, all updates are considered to be untargeted unless they include the SOLVER_TARGETED flag\&.
3502 Set bits specify which parts of the specified packages where specified by the user\&. It is used by the solver when checking if an operation is allowed or not\&. For example, the solver will normally not allow the downgrade of an installed package\&. But it will not report a problem if the SOLVER_SETEVR flag is used, as it then assumes that the user specified the exact version and thus knows what he is doing\&.
3504 So if a package "screen\-1\-1" is installed for the x86_64 architecture and version "2\-1" is only available for the i586 architecture, installing package "screen\-2\&.1" will ask the user for confirmation because of the different architecture\&. When using the Selection class to create jobs the set bits are automatically added, e\&.g\&. selecting \(lqscreen\&.i586\(rq will automatically add SOLVER_SETARCH, and thus no problem will be reported\&.
3505 .SH "THE SOLVER CLASS"
3507 Dependency solving is what this library is about\&. A solver object is needed for solving to store the result of the solver run\&. The solver object can be used multiple times for different jobs, reusing it allows the solver to re\-use the dependency rules it already computed\&.
3510 Flags to modify some of the solver\(cqs behavior:
3512 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_DOWNGRADE\fR
3514 Allow the solver to downgrade packages without asking for confirmation (i\&.e\&. reporting a problem)\&.
3517 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_ARCHCHANGE\fR
3519 Allow the solver to change the architecture of an installed package without asking for confirmation\&. Note that changes to/from noarch are always considered to be allowed\&.
3522 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_VENDORCHANGE\fR
3524 Allow the solver to change the vendor of an installed package without asking for confirmation\&. Each vendor is part of one or more vendor equivalence classes, normally installed packages may only change their vendor if the new vendor shares at least one equivalence class\&.
3527 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_NAMECHANGE\fR
3529 Allow the solver to change the name of an installed package, i\&.e\&. install a package with a different name that obsoletes the installed package\&. This option is on by default\&.
3532 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_UNINSTALL\fR
3534 Allow the solver to erase installed packages to fulfill the jobs\&. This flag also includes the above flags\&. You may want to set this flag if you only have SOLVER_ERASE jobs, as in that case it\(cqs better for the user to check the transaction overview instead of approving every single package that needs to be erased\&.
3537 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_DUP_ALLOW_DOWNGRADE\fR
3539 Like SOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_DOWNGRADE, but used in distupgrade mode\&.
3542 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_DUP_ALLOW_ARCHCHANGE\fR
3544 Like SOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_ARCHCHANGE, but used in distupgrade mode\&.
3547 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_DUP_ALLOW_VENDORCHANGE\fR
3549 Like SOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_VENDORCHANGE, but used in distupgrade mode\&.
3552 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_DUP_ALLOW_NAMECHANGE\fR
3554 Like SOLVER_FLAG_ALLOW_NAMECHANGE, but used in distupgrade mode\&.
3557 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_NO_UPDATEPROVIDE\fR
3559 If multiple packages obsolete an installed package, the solver checks the provides of every such package and ignores all packages that do not provide the installed package name\&. Thus, you can have an official update candidate that provides the old name, and other packages that also obsolete the package but are not considered for updating\&. If you cannot use this feature, you can turn it off by setting this flag\&.
3562 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_NEED_UPDATEPROVIDE\fR
3564 This is somewhat the opposite of SOLVER_FLAG_NO_UPDATEPROVIDE: Only packages that provide the installed package names are considered for updating\&.
3567 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_SPLITPROVIDES\fR
3569 Make the solver aware of special provides of the form \(lq<packagename>:<path>\(rq used in SUSE systems to support package splits\&.
3572 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_IGNORE_RECOMMENDED\fR
3574 Do not process optional (aka weak) dependencies\&.
3577 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_ADD_ALREADY_RECOMMENDED\fR
3579 Install recommended or supplemented packages even if they have no connection to the current transaction\&. You can use this feature to implement a simple way for the user to install new recommended packages that were not available in the past\&.
3582 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_NO_INFARCHCHECK\fR
3584 Turn off the inferior architecture checking that is normally done by the solver\&. Normally, the solver allows only the installation of packages from the "best" architecture if a package is available for multiple architectures\&.
3587 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_BEST_OBEY_POLICY\fR
3589 Make the SOLVER_FORCEBEST job option consider only packages that meet the policies for installed packages, i\&.e\&. no downgrades, no architecture change, no vendor change (see the first flags of this section)\&. If the flag is not specified, the solver will enforce the installation of the best package ignoring the installed packages, which may conflict with the set policy\&.
3592 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_NO_AUTOTARGET\fR
3594 Do not enable auto\-targeting up update and distupgrade jobs\&. See the section on targeted updates for more information\&.
3597 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_KEEP_ORPHANS\fR
3599 Do not allow orphaned packages to be deinstalled if they get in the way of resolving other packages\&.
3602 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_BREAK_ORPHANS\fR
3604 Ignore dependencies of orphaned packages that get in the way of resolving non\-orphaned ones\&. Setting the flag might result in no longer working packages in case they are orphaned\&.
3607 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_FOCUS_INSTALLED\fR
3609 Resolve installed packages before resolving the given jobs\&. Setting this flag means that the solver will prefer picking a package version that fits the other installed packages over updating installed packages\&.
3612 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_FOCUS_BEST\fR
3614 First resolve the given jobs, then the dependencies of the resulting packages, then resolve all already installed packages\&. This will result in more packages being updated as when the flag is not used\&.
3617 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_INSTALL_ALSO_UPDATES\fR
3619 Update the package if a job is already fulfilled by an installed package\&.
3622 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_YUM_OBSOLETES\fR
3624 Turn on yum\-like package split handling\&. See the yum documentation for more details\&.
3627 \fBSOLVER_FLAG_URPM_REORDER\fR
3629 Turn on urpm like package reordering for kernel packages\&. See the urpm documentation for more details\&.
3634 \fBSOLVER_RULE_UNKNOWN\fR
3636 A rule of an unknown class\&. You should never encounter those\&.
3639 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG\fR
3641 A package dependency rule\&.
3644 \fBSOLVER_RULE_UPDATE\fR
3646 A rule to implement the update policy of installed packages\&. Every installed package has an update rule that consists of the packages that may replace the installed package\&.
3649 \fBSOLVER_RULE_FEATURE\fR
3651 Feature rules are fallback rules used when an update rule is disabled\&. They include all packages that may replace the installed package ignoring the update policy, i\&.e\&. they contain downgrades, arch changes and so on\&. Without them, the solver would simply erase installed packages if their update rule gets disabled\&.
3654 \fBSOLVER_RULE_JOB\fR
3656 Job rules implement the job given to the solver\&.
3659 \fBSOLVER_RULE_DISTUPGRADE\fR
3661 These are simple negative assertions that make sure that only packages are kept that are also available in one of the repositories\&.
3664 \fBSOLVER_RULE_INFARCH\fR
3666 Infarch rules are also negative assertions, they disallow the installation of packages when there are packages of the same name but with a better architecture\&.
3669 \fBSOLVER_RULE_CHOICE\fR
3671 Choice rules are used to make sure that the solver prefers updating to installing different packages when some dependency is provided by multiple packages with different names\&. The solver may always break choice rules, so you will not see them when a problem is found\&.
3674 \fBSOLVER_RULE_LEARNT\fR
3676 These rules are generated by the solver to keep it from running into the same problem multiple times when it has to backtrack\&. They are the main reason why a sat solver is faster than other dependency solver implementations\&.
3679 Special dependency rule types:
3681 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_NOT_INSTALLABLE\fR
3683 This rule was added to prevent the installation of a package of an architecture that does not work on the system\&.
3686 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_NOTHING_PROVIDES_DEP\fR
3688 The package contains a required dependency which was not provided by any package\&.
3691 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_REQUIRES\fR
3693 Similar to SOLVER_RULE_PKG_NOTHING_PROVIDES_DEP, but in this case some packages provided the dependency but none of them could be installed due to other dependency issues\&.
3696 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_SELF_CONFLICT\fR
3698 The package conflicts with itself\&. This is not allowed by older rpm versions\&.
3701 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_CONFLICTS\fR
3703 To fulfill the dependencies two packages need to be installed, but one of the packages contains a conflict with the other one\&.
3706 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_SAME_NAME\fR
3708 The dependencies can only be fulfilled by multiple versions of a package, but installing multiple versions of the same package is not allowed\&.
3711 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_OBSOLETES\fR
3713 To fulfill the dependencies two packages need to be installed, but one of the packages obsoletes the other one\&.
3716 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_IMPLICIT_OBSOLETES\fR
3718 To fulfill the dependencies two packages need to be installed, but one of the packages has provides a dependency that is obsoleted by the other one\&. See the POOL_FLAG_IMPLICITOBSOLETEUSESPROVIDES flag\&.
3721 \fBSOLVER_RULE_PKG_INSTALLED_OBSOLETES\fR
3723 To fulfill the dependencies a package needs to be installed that is obsoleted by an installed package\&. See the POOL_FLAG_NOINSTALLEDOBSOLETES flag\&.
3726 \fBSOLVER_RULE_JOB_NOTHING_PROVIDES_DEP\fR
3728 The user asked for installation of a package providing a specific dependency, but no available package provides it\&.
3731 \fBSOLVER_RULE_JOB_UNKNOWN_PACKAGE\fR
3733 The user asked for installation of a package with a specific name, but no available package has that name\&.
3736 \fBSOLVER_RULE_JOB_PROVIDED_BY_SYSTEM\fR
3738 The user asked for the erasure of a dependency that is provided by the system (i\&.e\&. for special hardware or language dependencies), this cannot be done with a job\&.
3741 \fBSOLVER_RULE_JOB_UNSUPPORTED\fR
3743 The user asked for something that is not yet implemented, e\&.g\&. the installation of all packages at once\&.
3746 Policy error constants
3748 \fBPOLICY_ILLEGAL_DOWNGRADE\fR
3750 The solver ask for permission before downgrading packages\&.
3753 \fBPOLICY_ILLEGAL_ARCHCHANGE\fR
3755 The solver ask for permission before changing the architecture of installed packages\&.

3760 The solver ask for permission before changing the vendor of installed packages\&.
3763 \fBPOLICY_ILLEGAL_NAMECHANGE\fR
3765 The solver ask for permission before replacing an installed packages with a package that has a different name\&.

3820 \fBSOLVER_SOLUTION_REPLACE_NAMECHANGE\fR
3822 The problem can be solved by allowing to replace the package with some other package that has a different name\&.
3827 \fBSOLVER_REASON_UNRELATED\fR
3829 The package status did not change as it was not related to any job\&.
3832 \fBSOLVER_REASON_UNIT_RULE\fR
3834 The package was installed/erased/kept because of a unit rule, i\&.e\&. a rule where all literals but one were false\&.
3837 \fBSOLVER_REASON_KEEP_INSTALLED\fR
3839 The package was chosen when trying to keep as many packages installed as possible\&.

Most often there\(cqs not much difference between the two modes, but things get interesting if multiple packages get replaced by one new package\&. Say you have installed packages A\-1\-1 and B\-1\-1, and now install A\-2\-1 which has a new dependency that obsoletes B\&. The transaction elements will be
4910 updated A\-1\-1 (other: A\-2\-1)

5653 Data storage methods\&. Probably only useful to store data in the special SOLVID_META solvid that stores repodata meta information\&. Note that repodata areas can have their own Id pool (see the REPO_LOCALPOOL flag), so be careful if you need to store ids\&. Arrays are created by calling the add function for every element\&. A flexarray is an array of sub\-structures, call new_handle to create a new structure, use the handle as solvid to fill the structure with data and call add_flexarray to put the structure in an array\&.
5654 .SH "THE DATAPOS CLASS"
5656 Datapos objects describe a specific position in the repository data area\&. Thus they are only valid until the repository is modified in some way\&. Datapos objects can be created by the pos() and parentpos() methods of a Datamatch object or by accessing the \(lqmeta\(rq attribute of a repository\&.
