Update to 0.10.0
A lot of improvements and grammar fixes in manual page
by Nikolai Krot.
Support for marker "keep" was implemented.
(nih mark -k|-K, nih list -k, nih install).
"keep" marker means that a package can't be updated by "nih \
update"
command. This marker is particularly useful to mark packages that
the user compiled manually from pkgsrc.
Original idea belongs to Debian APT.
nih install:
- Options -r and -R options were added
for installing dependencies or dependent packages.
Sometimes they may fix mysterious segfaults.
- Support for package suffix `/' was added that means "remove
update". See the manual page for details.
- A virtual package "_" was implemented that means "all \
packages"
for which update is available".
- Fixed: bug in REQUIRES/PROVIDES problem resolver. Now packages
that solve REQUIRES/PROVIDES problems are marked as installed by
user. Thanks to Jan Smydke for the report.
- Library files including system libraries that packages require
through REQUIRES field are also checked during update plan
generation.
fix: $CACHEDIR/All directory is created only when it is really necessary.
