2013-06-20add a simple webserver for our testcasesDavid Kalnischkies
APT needs to acquire data in a secure fashion over an inherently unsecure way, known as the internet, while communicating with unreliable partners, known as webservers and proxies. For your integration tests we so far relied on 'normal' webservers, but all of them have certain quirks and none is able to provide us with all quirks which can be observed in the wild and we therefore have to test with, so this webserver isn't trying to be fast, secure or feature complete, but to provide all the quirks we need in a consistent way. This webserver also makes the APT project self-contained, as it is now able to generate, serve as well as acquire package indexes. ;) Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-20support \n and \r\n line endings in ReadMessagesDavid Kalnischkies
2013-06-20try defaults if auto-detection failed in apt-cdromDavid Kalnischkies
The default is to ask udev for location and mountpoints of CD-ROMs, but the old way of specifying the mountpoint is still available and is tried now in case udev doesn't find any CD-ROM. It probably fails, too, but we get a bunch of error messages this way and the user can get an idea of how to make his setup work even if udev can't be convienced to return something useful. Closes: #712433
2013-06-20handle missing "Description" in apt-cache showDavid Kalnischkies
do not blindly assume that all packages stanzas have a "Description:" field in 'apt-cache show' as well as in the cache creation itself. We instead assume now that if the stanza has a Description, it will not be the first field as we look out for "\nDescription" to take care of MD5sum as well as (maybe ignored) translated Descriptions embedded in the package stanza. Closes: #712435
2013-06-13fix file location for configure-index.gz in apt.conf(5)David Kalnischkies
Closes: #711921
2013-06-09tests: add an interactive 'test' with multiple cdromsDavid Kalnischkies
Can't be used as a test as is, but shows how to build multiple CD-ROMs for tests and can be used to reproduce debbug #711456. Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09ensure state-dir exists before coyping cdrom filesDavid Kalnischkies
We do the same in the acquire system which handles the 'normal' downloads, so do it here as well even though its unlikely anyone will ever notice (beside testcases of course …)
2013-06-09fail in CopyFile if the FileFds have error flag setDavid Kalnischkies
Testing for global PendingErrors in users of CopyFile is incorrect in so far as unrelated errors will prevent us from copying perfectly fine files and checking for the validity of the files is just better in CopyFiles as it already checks if files are at least opened. Add also a higher-level error message to the error stack if it fails.
2013-06-09stop building l10n if strings are unchangedDavid Kalnischkies
The buildsystem tried to build l10n for test applications which never produced the output it expected causing it to try building it all the time.
2013-06-09depend on libapt-pkg in the libapt-inst build processDavid Kalnischkies
fixing parallel build in the handcrafted buildsystem is a pain, so its not enabled by default, but its works for me – sometimes Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09tests: add expected port for cve-2013-105 testcaseDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09tests: trap-adding can be post- as well as prefixDavid Kalnischkies
For testcases it might sometimes be handy to add trap-actions before the general cleanup, e.g. if it has set directories read- only which rm doesn't want to remove even with --force applied (its fine with files though) Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09OpenDescriptor should autoclose fd always on errorDavid Kalnischkies
OpenInternDescriptor failures would cause additional errors to be generated by double-closing an fd. Other errors (although these are generated if the method is used incorrectly, so unlikely) didn't close the fd aswell. Closes: 704608
2013-06-09don't explicitly init ExtractTar InFd with invalid fdDavid Kalnischkies
The default constructor of the FileFd will kick in anyway, which will know that the Fd is invalid while with this explicit call it must be assumed that the fd is in fact valid, which might generate errors in the future
2013-06-09set Fail flag in FileFd on all errors consistentlyDavid Kalnischkies
Previously some errors would set the Fail flag while some didn't without a clear reason as all errors leave a bad FileFd behind, so we use a helper now to ensure that all errors set the flag.
2013-06-09make the vprintf like _error->Insert publicDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09fix support for multiple patterns in apt-cache searchDavid Kalnischkies
Patterns can appear in the name as well as in the description, they don't have to match all in the name/description only. Closes: 691453
2013-06-09initialize the whole search array with zeroDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2013-06-09deprecate InstallProtect as a cpu-eating no-opDavid Kalnischkies
In the past packages were flagged "Protected" so that install/ remove markings where issued before the ProblemResolver. Nowadays, the marking methods check if they are allowed to modify the marking of a package instead, so that markings set by FromUser calls are not overwritten anymore by automatic calls which elimates the need for InstallProtect which just eats CPU now. The method itself is left untouched for now in case frontend needs it still for some wierd usecase, but they should be eliminated.
2013-06-09do unpacks before configures in SmartConfigureDavid Kalnischkies
Splits the big loop over dependencies in SmartConfigure which unpacks and configures dependencies into two loops and reverse their order, so that all dependencies which need to be unpacked are handled first and only after that configures are issued for dependencies. This is needed as otherwise the unpack of a (new) dependency will be issued in between a configure call for two (or more) packages which form a loop, which means the configure calls aren't part of the same dpkg call and therefore dpkg bails out. Such tight loops should really be avoided as they are usually wrong – and in reality the dependencies in libreoffice were greatly simplified thanks to Rene Engelhard so the problem is gone for the benefit of all. Closes: 707578
2013-06-09try all providers in order if uninstallable in MarkInstallDavid Kalnischkies
2013-06-09fix priority sorting by prefering higher in MarkInstallDavid Kalnischkies
Used to work until a certain (here unnamed) person came along and used the wrong operator causing low-priority packages to be sorted above high-priority packages while choosing a provider in commit 2b5c35c7bb915dbd46fefd7c79f05364ba22f93b from Nov 2011
2013-06-09prefer Essentials over Removals in ordering scoreDavid Kalnischkies
Doing Removes early is good to have them out of the way, so they don't break 'Inst' or 'Conf' chains, but scoring them above Essentials means that we end up upgrading (many) less important packages before we handle big stuff like libc6 or debconf which not only fails if those less important packages have unannounced (strict) dependencies, but also leads to having these packages unconfigured for a long time triggering bugs in maintainer scripts for no good reason (#708831). So this commits sets the default value for remove scores to 100, which is below the one for essentials (200) and a lot lower than the previous default value (500).
2013-06-09rewrite pkgOrderList::DepRemove to stop incorrect immediate settingDavid Kalnischkies
Some squeeze → wheezy upgrades indicate that DepRemove runs amok in complicated setups as it wasn't correctly working with or-groups. Completely rewritten the check is now moving from or-group to or-group instead. The behavior should be the same as the code before, but (hopefully) with less bugs and more comments. Closes: 645713
2013-06-09remove -ldl from cdrom and -lutil from apt-get linkageDavid Kalnischkies
Building src:apt shows: dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/apt/usr/lib/apt/methods/cdrom was not linked against libdl.so.2 (it uses none of the library's symbols) dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/apt/usr/bin/apt-get was not linked against libutil.so.1 (it uses none of the library's symbols)
2013-06-09build the en manpages in subdirectory doc/enDavid Kalnischkies
Building manpages becames more consistent this way and it is simpler to ignore build artefacts, too.

2013-05-16non-inline RunGPGV methods to restore ABI compatibility with previous ↵David Kalnischkies
versions to fix partial upgrades (Closes: #707771) The rename in 0.9.7.9~exp2 moved the method body to the class definition which means it became inline, which isn't ABI compatibile. The reverse of moving inline to non-inline is safe though.
