Make map_pointer typesafe

2020-02-24T17:29:07Z

Instead of just using uint32_t, which would allow you to assign e.g. a map_pointer to a map_pointer, use our own smarter struct that has strict type checking. We allow creating a map_pointer from a nullptr, and we allow comparing map_pointer to nullptr, which also deals with comparisons against 0 which are often used, as 0 will be implictly converted to nullptr.

pkgcache.cc: Mix PACKAGE_VERSION into the cache hash

2020-01-16T17:21:20Z

This ensures that caches build with one version can't be opened with another, which makes sense. It's a temporary approach until we can replace major:minor fields with a version string. For example, this would have prevented 1.9.7 from using broken caches from 1.9.6.

Search in all available description translations

2019-11-25T09:59:38Z

When multiple translations of package descriptions are available, perform search in all of them. It allows using search patterns in any of the configured languages. Previously, only the first available translation was searched. As the result, patterns in e.g. English never matched packages which had their descriptions translated into local language.

Bump cache MajorVersion to 16

2019-06-12T13:12:33Z

1.6 was 13, so 1.7 has 14 reserved, and 1.8 has 15 reserved, so let's use 16 for 1.9 for now.

Detect function multiversioning and sse4.2/crc32, enables i386

2019-02-04T14:21:32Z

This fixes the build on kfreebsd-amd64, and due to the detection of sse4.2, should also enable the sse4.2 on i386.
