Testing the changes
This significantly speeds up the package building process for build scripts etc. that run
./xbps-src pkg ...
on a long list of packages that may already have up-to-date local packages built when configured withXBPS_PRESERVE_PKGS
set.I still have one question: what to do with the existing call tocheck_existing_pkg
incommon/xbps-src/libexec/build.sh
? The script appears to be executed from a few other scripts as well so I left it alone for now.Example with a single package
Before this patch:
After this patch:
Previously this would add up to about a minute of waiting for essentially no reason if 30 packages already have up-to-date local packages, while with this patch it would only take about 2 seconds to come to the same conclusion with the same package list.
