cmp(a, b) returns
-1 if a < b
0 if a == 0
1 if a > b
This is needed since python3 has no cmp function anymore.

The None argument is always <= than the other argument. We need this
in case of a broken/pathological package where version() or release()
return None (see vercmp (which calls rpmvercmp)).
Returning None breaks ArchQuery.vercmp. Returning b'0' is ok because
an epoch, if present, is always supposed to be an integer (at least
in a "valid" arch package (see scripts/libmakepkg/lint_pkgbuild/epoch.sh.in
in the pacman sources)). Hence, if we compare the epoch of a package,
which has no explicit epoch set, with the epoch of a package, which
has an explicit epoch set, we always have a <= relation.
If size is 0, using pb.Percentage will result in a
ZeroDivisionException. Note: the output in case of
size == 0 looks a bit "strange" - for a consistent
output we should probably subclass pb.Percentage.
* new function create_text_meter with fallback selection
* NoPBTextMeter.start() will print the basename (if not stated otherise with
basename = None)
* The callers that should use an alternare TextMeter class now call create_text_meter()
* The callers that should not use and alternate TextMeter (because of different handling,
like build.py) call create_text_meter(use_pb_fallback=False)
* the warning 'Please install the progressbar module' is now only shown once

Now, CpioWrite provides a bytes-only API. It would be also possible
that the API accepts bytes and str (we would need to explicitly
encode the latter) but this would be a bit inconsistent wrt.
cpio.CpioRead (which is bytes-only).
Also, by using a bytesarray instead of a [] we avoid several
intermediate ''.join(...)s.
This is a bytes only API because a filename in a cpio archive can
contain, for instance, illegal utf-8 sequences. A user can decode
the filename/content as she wishes.
A ValueError is more appropriate because there is no issue with the
ar archive itself. Also, the old codepath never worked because the
fn parameter was missing.
Since an ar archive can contain arbitary filenames (that is a
filename can be an invalid utf-8 encoding (for instance,
"foo\xff\xffbar")), the ar module provides a bytes only API. A
user can decode filenames as she wishes.
Note: if a "fn" parameter is passed to Ar.__init__ it should be a
bytes (a str is also ok, but then be aware that an ArError's file
attribute might be a str or a bytes).
There is no need to unpack a single byte because it is not
affected by (byte) endianness (and that's what struct.unpack is
about). Moreover, rpmquery.unpack_string now supports an optional
encoding parameter, which could be used by the python3 port to
decode a string. Note: in general we cannot assume that all strings
in a rpm are utf-8 encoded (it is possible to build a rpm that
contains illegal utf-8 sequences).
With the NoPBTextMeter class the build view gets broken.
Old view:
1/11 (repo) filename
new view:
Please install the progressbar module...
Please install the progressbar module...
Please install the progressbar module...
With this commit the old behavior is restored.
The getbinaries call now lists the file he downloads instead of just
stating "Please install the progressbar module..." several times.
(but only if not called with the option quiet)
Since commit 8a6abe3a6c ("warn user
if python-progressbar is not installed") it is always safe to import
the meter module (even if the progressbar module is not installed).
On ImportError have_pb_module is false and the class NoPBTextMeter gets
returned which prints "Please install progressbar module..." on TextMeter.start()
If urlgrab returns a URLError (for example if the Network is unreachable)
the for loop did not continue and the osc build aborts.
Now we also catch the URLError and try the next mirror and return False
correctly if no mirror could be reached. And then try to download it from
api
