How to use the new features

`KVER` internal variable and `limit_kver` pacscript variable

Maintainers may want some of their packages, such as external kernel modules, to build slightly differently based on device kernel versions, or may want to exclude certain versions entirely from being able to build a package. We have added two new variables to assist in this interaction:

$KVER: this is an internal variable, similar to CARCH and DISTRO; one could potentially use the variable like the following:

build() {
  case "${KVER}" in
    "4."*) echo "Kernels on 4.x" ;;
    "5."*) echo "Kernels on 5.x" ;;
    "6."*) echo "Kernels on 6.x" ;;
  esac
}

limit_kver=: this is a pacscript variable, similar to pkgver and depends; it is a singular string, as opposed to an array, and should be a number prefixed by one of the version constraints <= >= = < >, such as the following:

limit_kver=">=4.4"
# OR
limit_kver="<6.0"

How to use the new features

`PACSTALL_TMPDIR` environment variable

Normally, downloads, extractions, and builds are done in /tmp/pacstall. However, certain packages may have very large download or build sizes, and on many devices, this results in a filled up /tmp and incomplete building.

To work around this, users can now define the environment variable PACSTALL_TMPDIR to serve in place of /tmp throughout all processes. It should be defined without a trailing slash. If PACSTALL_TMPDIR is not defined, it falls back to being /tmp.

`-Lu`/`--list-upgrades` command

Before this flag, if users wanted to check what packages are marked for upgrades, they would have to run -Up, then cancel out the upgrade prompt. Now users can simply run pacstall -Lu to list upgrades without upgrading.

`-M`/`--mark` command

Previously, if a package was installed locally from a pacscript rather than from a repo, it would not be able to be picked up for upgrades. This has now been aligned with APT, and will automatically search in available repos for a locally installed package and upgrade it if it exists. In place of the old behavior, -M allows you to mark packages to be held from upgrade. Its usage is as follows:

pacstall -M foobar-bin hold # keeps foobar-bin from being checked for upgrades
pacstall -M foobar-bin unhold # lets foobar-bin upgrade again

How to use the new features

`-x/--debug` flag

For a while, Pacstall has had support for a special debug output if one added set -x to the beginning of the main pacstall file, making the traditional bash -x output more verbose. To make this process slightly easier, we have now introduced this flag directly into Pacstall, though it must always be used separately as the first argument, like so:

pacstall -x -I foobar

This output will produce a very large amount of text to the terminal, and will make other prompts harder to see, so it should only be used for debugging purposes. To make the output send to an external log file instead of the terminal, you can use the following syntax:

BASH_XTRACEFD=3 pacstall -x -I foobar 3>/tmp/pac-debug.log

This will have Pacstall appear to run normally, while writing the debug output to /tmp/pac-debug.log. This can also make for an effective way to have the standard output in one terminal window, using the command above, and the debug output in a second window, using:

tail -f /tmp/pac-debug.log
