=head1 NAME
OpenBSD::PkgCfl - C<pkg_create(1)> C<@conflict> handling
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use OpenBSD::PkgCfl;
$clist = OpenBSD::PkgCfl->make_conflicts_list($plist);
@cfls = $clist->conflicts_with(@pkgnames);
OpenBSD::PkgCfl::register($plist, $state);
OpenBSD::PkgCfl::unregister($plist, $state);
@cfls = OpenBSD::PkgCfl::find_all($plist, $state);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<OpenBSD::PkgCfl> is the canonical interface to packing-list conflict
handling.
Conflict information can be extracted from a packing-list
(see L<OpenBSD::PackingList>) through the
C<OpenBSD::PkgCfl> class method. The result is an opaque object C<$clist> that
can be queried to find out which package names conflict with the
packing-list. A query of the form C<$clist-E<gt>conflicts_with(@pkgnames)>
will extract from the list the package names that actually conflict with
the packing-list.
Most handling of conflict information happens through the higher level
interface: C<OpenBSD::PkgCfl::register>, C<OpenBSD::PkgCfl::unregister>
and C<OpenBSD::PkgCfl::find_all>. Package tools usually handle installed
packages, and this interface automatically takes the initial set of installed
packages into account. The C<register> and C<unregister> functions must
be used to add and remove a packing-list from the set of installed packages,
where conflict information is concerned.
The C<find_all> function can be used to find out about all possible conflicts
a new packing-list will entail, before actually adding the package.
The extra argument C<$state> is a hash used to record system-wide options.
In this case, it acts as a hidden object that records all conflict
information. The hash key C<conflict_list> is reserved for that purpose.
