# rpmdiff - a program for comparing two rpm files for differences.
# Written by Ken Estes, Mail.com.

use Getopt::Long;

# much of this code comes from reading the book 
#  "Maximum RPM" by Edward C. Bailey


sub usage {
  
    my $args = "[--".join("] [--", @ARGS)."]";
    my @default_args = map $RPMTAG->{$_}->{'arg'}, @DEFAULT_CMP;
    my $default_args = "--".join(" --", @default_args)."";

    my $usage =<<EOF;

$0  [--version]  [--help]  [--cmpmode]  [--all] 
    $args
    old_rpm_file  new_rpm_file


Arguments


--version	Print version information for this program

--help		Show this usage page

--cmpmode	Do not send any information to stdout, instead
		exit with zero if the rpm files are identical and 
		exit with 1 if there are differences.

--all		Ensure that all possible comparisons will be performed.
		This argument should not be used with any CMP arguments.


CMP Arguments


Many of the options are designed to select which comparisons the user
is interested in so that spurious differences can be ignored.  If no
CMP arguments are chosen then the default arguments are picked.

The CMP arguments are:
	$args

The default arguments are:
	$default_args

There are two methods of picking which comparisions will be performed.
Any differences between the two files which are not in the list of
performed comparisons will be ignored.

First arguments may be specified on the command line preceeded with a
'--' as in '--md5' these arguments specify which comparisons will be
performed. If a comparison is not mentioned on the command line it will
not be performed.

Second arguments may be specified on the command line preceeded with a
'--no' as in '--nomd5' these arguments specify which comparisons will
not be performed. If a comparison is not mentioned on the command line
it will be prefomed.

You can not mix the two types of arguments.


Synopsis


This script will compare old_rpm_file and new_rpm_file and print to
standard out the differences between the two files.  The output is
designed to help isolate the changes which will occur when upgrading
an installed package.  The output looks like the output of 'rpm -V'.
It is assumed that you have installed oldpackage and are thinking of
upgrading to newpackage.  The output is as if you ran 'rpm -Va' after
installing the new package with cpio so that the rpm database was not
up todate.  Thus 'rpm -Va' will pick up the differences between the
two pacakges.


Additionally the RPM scripts (prein, postin, triggers, verify, etc)
are compared and their results are displayed as if the scripts ended
up as files in the filesystem.

Exit Code


The if not run in cmpmode the program exists with the number of files
which are different between the two packages, the exitcode will get no
bigger than $MAX_EXIT.

If run in cmpmode then the program will exit with zero if the rpm
files are identical and exit with 1 if there are differences.


BUGS


This program only parses the RPM file headers not the cpio payload
inside the RPM file.  In the rare case where an tag is defined in one
RPM and not in another we charitably assume that the RPMs match on
this tag.  An example of this may be file uid/gid\'s.  Currently rpm
does not store this information in the header, it appears only in the
cpio payload.  If you were to compare two rpm files and one of them
does not have the uid/gid\'s in the header then no difference in
uid/gid will ever appear in the output regardless of what the RPMs
actually contain.

The program only checks differences between files and scripts, any
changes to dependencies, prefixes, or spec file header information are
not checked.

There is no method provided to check changes in a files flags, this
includes changes to the files documentation, MISSINGOK, NOREPLACE, or
configuration status.


Output Format


The differences are sent to stdout.  There is one line for each file
which is different.  The differences are encoded in a string using the
following letters to represent the differerences and the following
order to encode the information:

	S is the file size

	M is the file\'s mode

	5 is the MD5 checksum of the file

	D is the files major and monor numbers

	L is the files symbolic link contents.

	U is the owner of the file

	G is the file\'s group

	T is the modification time of the file

	added indicates the file was added to the old version

	missing indicates the file was deleted from the old version

Any attributes which match are denoted with a '.'.

sub set_static_vars {

# This functions sets all the static variables which are often
# configuration parameters.  Since it only sets variables to static
# quantites it can not fail at run time. Some of these variables are
# adjusted by parse_args() but asside from that none of these
# variables are ever written to. All global variables are defined here
# so we have a list of them and a comment of what they are for.
  

# The numerical indicies to the hash comes from ~rpm/lib/rpmlib.h
# the index is the number of the tag as it appears in the rpmfile.

# tag_name: the name of the tag as it appears in rpmlib.h.

# all entries have a tag_name if an entry has one of the next three
# fields it must have the rest.  If a tag does not have the next three
# fields we we will still gather data for it. This is for future
# functionality as these fields look important, and for debugging.


# diff_order: if the tag is used in the different output then this is
# 		the order of the character differences.

# diff_char: if the tag is used in the different output then this is
# 		the character which will appear when there is a 
#		difference.

# arg: the name of the command line option to specify whether this tag
#		 is used in the difference or not

# The scripts contained in the rpm (preinstall, postinstall) do not
# have the comparison information that files have.  Some of the
# comparisons (md5, size) can be performed on scripts, using regular
# perl functions, others (uid, modes, link) can not.  We use
# script_cmp to link the perl comparison function to the comparison
# arguments and to the diff_char.

# script_cmp: the perl comparion function to perform if this
# difference can be performed on the rpm scripts

# is_script: if defined this indicates that the datatype is a script
# and we can use script_cmp on it.  The data is stored as an array
# containing a single string.


# note: that although we may need to denote differences in the flags
# this table may not be appropriate for that task.


# The data from the RPM files is stored in $RPM0, $RPM1 they are HoL.
# The hash is indexed with the same index as appears in $RPMTAG, the
# other data is what ever comes out of the file.  Most of the data we
# want is stored as arrays of values (occasionally it is a scalar
# value).  We keep a hash to allow us to find the index number to use
# in all arrays given the filename.  Some information like the package
# name and the posinstall script are stored, in the hash table as an
# array which contains a single string.
