Expand description

Create a package from a file. If full is false, the archive is read only until all necessary metadata is found. If it is true, the entire archive is read, which serves as a verification of integrity and the filelist can be created. The allocated structure should be freed using alpm_pkg_free(). @param handle the context handle @param filename location of the package tarball @param full whether to stop the load after metadata is read or continue through the full archive @param level what level of package signature checking to perform on the package; note that this must be a ‘.sig’ file type verification @param pkg address of the package pointer @return 0 on success, -1 on error (pm_errno is set accordingly)
