c2590f6aca make assigning to TMPDIR in sbopkg.conf work
Move the assignment to SBOPKGTMP (via mktemp and its TMPDIR) to after
sourcing the config file. Thanks to Ken Roberts for reporting the issue
and providing a preliminary fix.

Also modify config_check() to check for obsolete variables as it does
for required variables. Also modify cleanup() to only try to remove
SBOPKGTMP if it exists.

50a005bc3e address the old bash/dir_init() part of issue 55
r845 addresses part of a problem with sbopkg code and bash 3x array
handling but not all of it. When creating an array with the += operator,
if the array creation code was triggered, the item doing so should have
been assigned to index 0 and, instead, an empty string was being
assigned to 0 and the item was being assigned to index 1, resulting in a
blank line being output before the proper item. Thanks to greinze for
pointing this out. Explicitly declaring the variable an array seems to
solve this.

d51de9267c addressed issue 50 (-o does nothing)
Applied patch by Mauro which modified get_source_names() to only attempt
to ls SRCNAME if SRCNAME is not empty so that it doesn't list the entire
cache directory and break get_obsolete_sources(). This was triggered by
django, whose DOWNLOAD was given as
"http://www.djangoproject.com/download/1.2.3/tarball/"

f17e5ae404 addressed issue 48 (MKDIR_PROMPT ignored)
r819 mostly replaced directory_checks() and ck_dir() with dir_init() but
forgot about the MKDIR_PROMPT variable used in ck_dir(). So again wrapped
the prompting in a conditional based on that setting and moved the
action outside the conditional.

badc768e12 address security hole; overhaul tempfile handling
This revision corrects a security issue introduced in r762 and a trap
lost in r819. The basic idea is to revert the unsafe operator from r762
and then replace sbopkg's static SBOPKGTMP directory with a more secure,
volatile one created by mktemp and to use it and a new batch of traps to
simplify creation and cleanup of tmp dirs and files.

Tmp/trap/cleanup changes:

* /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf.new: removed old SBOPKGTMP variable.
* config_check(): ditto. Also removed everything about unexpected files
  since the new SBOPKGTMP should take care of that.
* dir_init(): removed SBOPKGTMP variable and its use. Dumped the
  ALLOW_MULTI/mcookie part, since the new SBOPKGTMP should take care of
  that.
* script-wide: removed all calls to cleanup(), except for the new call
  from the traps.
* check_for_updates(): reverted the redirection operator
* build_package(): now uses the volatile SBOPKGTMP directly if/when we
  CLEANUP, rather than a volatile subdir in a static SBOPKGTMP.
* cleanup(): changed all the specific deletions of the contents of the
  old SBOPKGTMP to a general deletion of the entire new SBOPKGTMP.
  Dumped the ALLOW_MULTI stuff since it can't be triggered now (rm -r of
  a mktemp vs. a rmdir of an mcookie).
* control_c(): made a comment more specific; made the function a lot
  quieter; removed the cleanup/exit parts now trapped.
* main: added traps; assigned to SBOPKGTMP internally with a mktemp
  invocation that respects TMPDIR and moved up all SBOPKGTMP variables
  that had to wait on sourcing the config file since they no longer have
  to wait for that.

Unrelated changes that I tripped over along the way:

* pid_check(): combine PIDFILE declaration and assignment and shorten
  comment.
* info_item(): changed use of filenames to use of variables.
* sync_repo(): made an error condition exit 1 rather than 0.
* get_source(): changed PIDLIST to SBOPKG_PIDLIST like it is elsewhere.
* pick_file(): establish a RETURN trap to clean out files which are now
  referred to by variables rather than semi-random deletions of files
  referred to by filenames.
* process_queue(): now moves the built package from the tmpdir before
  installing rather than after so people's PACKAGE LOCATION lines aren't
  screwed up in their package db.
* main: combined a command and exit status check into the one 'if'. Also
  changed some more filenames to vars and removed two that didn't need
  to be declared there. (They can be local to their functions since r831
  or so.)

e5318d9d8e allowed user to retry a failed https download
Added check_cert_prompt() which is called from get_source() which
prompts the user to append '--no-check-certificate' to WGETFLAGS if it
is not already present, and tries again. Previously, this was handled by
changing WGETFLAGS manually (which is still possible) but this handles
it interactively on a case by case basis and may help new users who
aren't aware that modifying WGETFLAGS would be a solution. Thanks to
Chess and Mauro for review and suggestions.

3a92318fa8 fixed command line search with the -s/-g flags
* search_package(): modified to return a sorted list
* gen_search_package(): moved my select menu to the new function.
* search_and_display(): new function which takes one or more arguments
  (literal or quoted globs) from the command line (-s) and uses
  search_package() to return an array of possible matches. If more than
  one app is returned, it presents the user with a menu. It displays the
  standard files associated with the app the user chooses. If
  search_package() only returns one app, it displays the associated
  files immediately. Despite being a new function, this merely restores
  old functionality (albeit somewhat improved) which had been broken.
* main: moved the old code from the SEARCH test block to the new
  function, replacing it with a call to that function.
* main: temporarily disabled pathname expansion in part of the GENSEARCH
  test block (and in part of the new function) so it wouldn't break if
  someone searched for 'fu*' with a 'fubar' file in the current
  directory.

Also modified the man page and one comment regarding details of these
flags/functions.

183aa1e372 created fix_urls() to handle quirky URLs
This broke out a sed line used in a couple of places (and which needed
to be extended) into a commented function. This specifically addresses
dzen2, as well as the zarafa problems found while dealing with dzen2.
Also tightened up a regex that caused problems while dealing with
similar quirks. Also modified comments in these areas.

Note that virtualbox (no longer a problem) and calcurse (now
specifically handled) were handled by two generic substitution commands,
which have been removed. If these commands were catching things besides
virtualbox and calcurse, this will cause a regression but it's not
considered likely; it will let us know what *needs* to be fixed; and it
should be easy to do so.

22f8de1ad5 revised error_read and its calls
Brought the error_read() calls more into conformance with standard
'read's. Two items still differ significantly: since the 'read' is in
error_read() and must handle a variety of prompts, prompts are done
before the call with 'printf's and since error_read is restricted to Y/N
values, the prompts have to use those for at least two of their options.

* error_read(): modified comments to reflect current status. Made read
  use '-e' like the rest of the reads. Got rid of the '$1's and 'eval's
  and used a simple assignment to REPLY. While the "(as specified with
  '-e')" echo should never happen unless ON_ERROR was set to
  stop/continue, it's still better to assign it to a variable tied
  directly to where it's supposed to occur.

69224bfd1c made user prompts more consistent
All direct uses of the 'read' builtin are now close to the following
format: possibly a block of statement text to the user output by
whatever means are handiest then, if not an 'anykey' prompt, a loop
which prompts and checks for valid input. The prompt is generally a
concise line in the forms of

    read -p "(A)pples or (O)ranges?: "
    read -n1 -p "Press any key to continue: "

Then a case statement handles the input in the format:

    A|a) apple_action ;;
    O|o) orange_action ;;
    *) unknown_response ;;

Also misc minor changes such as modifying wording or option letters,
changing linebreaks in case statements, etc.

Beyond simple wording changes in the statement text, there was also:

* remove_files(): removed the 'echo -e foo\n' which seemed unnecessary.
* use_options(): added the SAVEDOPT and QUEUEOPT variables which are
  used in read's prompt to customize it to the nature of the actually
  possible choices and removed the 'else's we don't need to display.

a21d663040 combined/revised install_package()/do_install()
* do_install(): moved a revised form into install_package(), removing
  this one.
* install_package(): tried to make sure we local-ized all the vars we
  need; saved two variables and two stat calls with one find; put a
  missing loop around our read prompt; made the key line the argument of
  read's -p flag; put the breaks and returns in the right places; and,
  in terms of what was brought in from do_install(): removed the unused
  loop from around the rename check and upgradepkg call; modified
  variables to use install_package()s and dequoted the surviving
  PKG_NAME.

e22a5a3574 replaced read fallbacks with new unknown_response()
* unknown_response(): new function to specify calling function and
  unknown input in the error message.
* any functions with '{error_,}read's in them: replaced 'local ANS/read
  ANS/case $ANS' with 'local REPLY/read/case $REPLY' and all '*) Unknown
  response' with '*) unknown_response'.
* several functions: added missing 'local REPLY'
* get_source(): removed stale 'ANS'
* read_info(): reformatted case statement

Also made two other probably unnecessary changes to help with hunting an
elusive bug.

* error_read(): modified to loudly bomb out if it's somehow acquired an
  impossible value.
* main: modified ON_ERROR so it's even more impossible for it to get the
  wrong value.

2447fd7a14 re{named,wrote} directory_checks() into dir_init()
Previously, the user was confronted with 7 prompts for directory
creation on first run to which they could hit enter or ^C in response.
The main purpose of this revision is to provide a nice printout and a
single question to which they can hit 'y/n'.

This led to a cascade of changes but it's all focused on establishing
sbopkg's needed directories and even results in fewer loc.

* directory_checks(): replaced with dir_init()
* config_check(): the ALLOW_MULTI check there was creating a directory
  rather than checking the config, so moved it to dir_init(). Also made
  the directory creation non-interactive since it's only creating a
  tmpdir in an already-created sbopkg directory.
* sync_repo(): moved the directory_check() call to select_repository()
  since being able to switch repos mid-run in the dialog
  select_repository() interface is the direct (and only) reason for
  calling dir_init() after startup. Removed the check_write() call and
  all the rest related to it as it was no longer needed.
* select_repository(): aside from gaining the item just mentioned, the
  'save setting' dialog was wrapped in a conditional based on whether
  the user actually chose to create the new repo dir.
* ck_dir(): removed. The seven calls in directory_checks() went with
  that function and the one in config_check() was also removed, since
  it's now handled by dir_init() non-interactively, leaving it unused.
* check_write(): removed. The single call from sync_repo() was removed,
  as discussed above, leaving it unused.
* pid_check(): now does a quick check for ALLOW_MULTI, making that a black
  box that does the right thing.
* main: as just mentioned, the ALLOW_MULTI check was moved into
  pid_check(). ALLOW_MULTI already gets special treatment in cleanup()
  and did in config_check() and does in dir_init(), so it might as well
  in pid_check() rather than being tested for in main. And, of course,
  replaced the directory_checks() call with one to dir_init().

Replaced variable data with 'xxxDATAxxx' tags. The tags are replaced by

manpages, rather than requiring three separate edits. Also, sbopkg.conf
and sbopkg.conf(5) will always automatically be in sync.

4b35bdf032 Yet more manpage tweaks and cleanups
In HACKING, I moved two points, modified two points, moved and modified
one point, and added two points. I also separated all points with a
blank line as is consistent with the first list in the file.

In both man pages, I shortened most 'SlackBuilds.org' references to
'SBo'; shortened most 'SlackBuild scripts' references to 'SlackBuilds';
added some missed root prompt symbols; and added a few missed .Bs and
.Is or flipped a wrong one for the right one.

In sbopkg.conf.5, I added 'simultaneously' in ALLOW_MULTI; revised a
line in KEEPLOG, and one in LOGFILE; and flipped a couple of
inconsistent .PP/.RS pairs to .RS/.PP.

In sbopkg.8, I added a comma in a list; redid a sequence of bold/roman
in the '-e' arg list; changed 'another configuration file' to 'FILE';
and flipped the out-of-order -r/-R flags.
