CVS commit: basesrc/usr.bin/xinstall

[Luke Mewburn <lukem%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    basesrc
Committed By:   lukem
Date:           Thu Oct 11 02:06:33 UTC 2001

Modified Files:
        basesrc/usr.bin/xinstall: install.1 xinstall.c

Log Message:
- Implement "-M log", which appends the metadata associated with the
  installed file or directory to `log'. This is primarily designed
  to be used in conjunction with -U, but that's not mandatory.
  Provide metadata_log() to do the hard work. The log file is opened
  for append at the start, and flock(LOCK_EX) is used to prevent
  interleaved output (from multiple concurrent install(8) operations).
- Improve parsing of owner and groups (e.g., strtoul() instead of atoi()),
  and don't rely upon uid==-1 to indicate "no owner"; use a flag instead.
- Make fileflags a global variable; uid, gid, and mode are, so lets be
  consistent...
- Improve -U (unpriv); work on file flags as well, and only try to change
  the file flags after the temporary file is renamed (since certain flags
  will prevent the rename from working).
