v2.0.0
BREAKING CHANGE
-
Starting from version 2.0.0 pkgcache returns data frames instead
of tibbles. While data frames and tibbles are very similar, they are
not completely compatible. To convert the output of pkgcache to tibbles
call theas_tibble()
function on them.pkgcache loads the pillar package at startup, if available, and uses it
to improve the printing of pkgcache data frames.
OTHER CHANGES
-
parse_packages()
now automatically determines the type of thePACKAGES*
file, instead of relying on file extensions. -
pkgcache can now call back again to a
PACKAGES
file ifPACKAGES.gz
is
not available. (This fixes a regression in pkgcache 1.3.0.) -
pkgcache now uses HTTP 1.1 on Linux as well, because of crashes with
HTTP/2. -
pkgcache now supports
file:///
, repositories, i.e. repositories on
the local file system.
