2015-04-07demote VectorizeString gcc attribute from const to pureDavid Kalnischkies
g++-5 generates a slightly broken libapt which doesn't split architecture configurations correctly resulting in e.g. Packages files requested for the bogus architecture 'amd64,i386' instead of for amd64 and i386. The reason is an incorrectly applied attribute marking the function as const, while functions with pointer arguments are not allowed to be declared as such (note that char& is a char* in disguise). Demoting the attribute to pure fixes this issue – better would be dropping the & from char but that is an API change… Neither earlier g++ versions nor clang use this attribute to generate broken code, so we don't need a rebuild of dependencies or anything and g++-5 isn't even included in jessie, but the effect is so strange and apt popular enough to consider avoiding this problem anyhow.
2015-04-07fix crash in order writing in pkgDPkgPM::WriteApportReport()Michael Vogt
libapt can be configured to write various bits of information to a file creating a report via apport. This is disabled by default in Debian and apport residing only in /experimental so far, but Ubuntu and other derivatives have this (in some versions) enabled by default and there is no regression potentially here. The crash is caused by a mismatch of operations vs. strings for operations, so adding the missing strings for these operations solves the problem. [commit message by David Kalnischkies] LP: #1436626
2015-04-07avoid depends on std::string implementation for pkgAcquire::Item::ModeDavid Kalnischkies
In /experimental this is resolved by deprecating Mode and moving to a new std::string, but that breaks ABI of course, so that was out of question. We can't change to a malloc/free style c-string either as Mode is public and hence a library user could be setting this as well. std::string implementors actually helped us out here with copy-on-write which means that while the variable "obviously" runs out of scope here, in reality you get the correct result as the string we work with here comes from the configuration in which it is still valid. Such a dependency on magic is bad of course, but its still interesting that only python3 seems to have an issue with it… With some silly explicit if-else assigning we can sidestep this issue while retaining the same output for 99.99% of all users (= noone actually configures additional compression algorithms which are also provided by repositories…), but even for these 0.01% its just a small change in the display as Mode can not be used for anything else. Example: apt/aptitude uses it in its 'update' implementations in the one-line progress at the bottom for specific items. Closes: 781858
2015-04-07properly handle expected filesize in httpsDavid Kalnischkies
The worker expects that the methods tell him when they start or finish downloading a file. Various information pieces are passed along in this report including the (expected) filesize. https is using a "global" struct for reporting which made it 'reuse' incorrect values in some cases like a non-existent InRelease fallbacking to Release{,.gpg} resulting in an incorrect size-mismatch warning scaring and desensitizing users as well as being subject to a race between the write_data and progress callbacks generating incorrect progress reporting and potentially the same error message. Other branches as well as the bugreports contain 'better' fixes making the struct local and other sensible changes, but are larger as a result, so in this version we opted for short diff with minimal effect above else instead. Closes: 777565, 781509 Thanks: Robert Edmonds and Anders Kaseorg for initial patchs

2015-01-10award points for positive dependencies againDavid Kalnischkies
Commit 9ec748ff103840c4c65471ca00d3b72984131ce4 from Feb 23 last year adds a version check after 8daf68e366fa9fa2794ae667f51562663856237c added 8 days earlier negative points for breaks/conflicts with the intended that only dependencies which are satisfied propagate points (aka: old conflicts do not). The implementation was needlessly complex and flawed through preventing positive dependencies from gaining points like they did before these commits making library transitions harder instead of simpler. It worked out anyhow most of the time out of pure 'luck' (and other ways of gaining points) or got miss attributed to being a temporary hick-up. Closes: 774924
2015-01-10128 KiB DSC files ought to be enough for everyoneDavid Kalnischkies
Your mileage may vary, but don't worry: There is more than one way to do it, but our one size fits all is not a bigger hammer, but an entire roundhouse kick! So brace yourself for the tl;dr: The limit is gone.* Beware: This fixes also the problem that a double newline is unconditionally added 'later' which is an overcommitment in case the dsc filesize is limit-2 <= x <= limit. * limited to numbers fitting into an unsigned long long. Closes: 774893
2015-01-06Add regression test for the previous commitMichael Vogt
The issue was that https.cc never called URIStart(), one way to detect this is that no download progress is generated without this call. The test now checks for this and as a side-effect will also ensure that we do not break download progress reporting and Acquire::{http,https}::Dl-Limit accidently.
2015-01-05Fix missing URIStart() for https downloadsMichael Vogt
Add a explicit ReceivedData to HttpsMethod that indicates when we got data from the connection so that we can send URISTart() to the parent. This is needed because URIStart got moved in f9b4f12d from the progress_callback to write_data() and it only checks for Res.Size. In the old code if progress_callback is called by libcurl (and sets Res.Size) before write_data is called then URIStart() is never send. Making this a explicit ReceivedData variable fixes this issue.

2014-12-23tighten filtering of kernel images in apt.auto-removalJames McCoy
The current filtering matches the names of the image metapackages on the i386 architecture: $ dpkg-query -l | awk '/^ii[ ]+(linux|kfreebsd|gnumach)-image-[0-9]/ && $2 !~ /-dbg$/ { print $2 }' linux-image-3.16.0-4-586 linux-image-586 This results in an extra image package being removed from APT::NeverAutoRemove, losing the intended effect of keeping the {current, previous, latest} set of images installed. Requiring a “.” in the package name tightens the matched package names to those that are installing a specific version of the image, thus eliding the meta-packages. Closes: 772732
2014-12-23pass-through stdin fd instead of content if not a terminalDavid Kalnischkies
Commit 299aea924ccef428219ed6f1a026c122678429e6 fixes the problem of not logging terminal in case stdin & stdout are not a terminal. The problem is that we are then trying to pass-through stdin content by reading from the apt-process stdin and writing it to the stdin of the child (dpkg), which works great for users who can control themselves, but pipes and co are a bit less forgiving causing us to pass everything to the first child process, which if the sending part of the pipe is e.g. 'yes' we will never see the end of it (as the pipe is full at some point and further writing blocks). There is a simple solution for that of course: If stdin isn't a terminal, we us the apt-process stdin as stdin for the child directly (We don't do this if it is a terminal to be able to save the typed input in the log). Closes: 773061
2014-12-23always run 'dpkg --configure -a' at the end of our dpkg callingsDavid Kalnischkies
dpkg checks now for dependencies before running triggers, so that packages can now end up in trigger states (especially those we are not touching at all with our calls) after apt is done running. The solution to this is trivial: Just tell dpkg to configure everything after we have (supposely) configured everything already. In the worst case this means dpkg will have to run a bunch of triggers, usually it will just do nothing though. The code to make this happen was already available, so we just flip a config option here to cause it to be run. This way we can keep pretending that triggers are an implementation detail of dpkg. --triggers-only would supposely work as well, but --configure is more robust in regards to future changes to dpkg and something we will hopefully make use of in future versions anyway (as it was planed at the time this and related options were implemented). Note that dpkg currently has a workaround implemented to allow upgrades to jessie to be clean, so that the test works before and after. Also note that test (compared to the one in the bug) drops the await test as its is considered a loop by dpkg now. Closes: 769609
2014-12-23do not make PTY slave the controlling terminalDavid Kalnischkies
If we have no controlling terminal opening a terminal will make this terminal our controller, which is a serious problem if this happens to be the pseudo terminal we created to run dpkg in as we will close this terminal at the end hanging ourself up in the process… The offending open is the one we do to have at least one slave fd open all the time, but for good measure, we apply the flag also to the slave fd opening in the child process as we set the controlling terminal explicitely here. This is a regression from 150bdc9ca5d656f9fba94d37c5f4f183b02bd746 with the slight twist that this usecase was silently broken before in that it wasn't logging the output in term.log (as a pseudo terminal wasn't created). Closes: 772641
2014-12-22dispose http(s) 416 error page as non-contentDavid Kalnischkies
Real webservers (like apache) actually send an error page with a 416 response, but our client didn't expect it leaving the page on the socket to be parsed as response for the next request (http) or as file content (https), which isn't what we want at all… Symptom is a "Bad header line" as html usually doesn't parse that well to an http-header. This manifests itself e.g. if we have a complete file (or larger) in partial/ which isn't discarded by If-Range as the server doesn't support it (or it is just newer, think: mirror rotation). It is a sort-of regression of 78c72d0ce22e00b194251445aae306df357d5c1a, which removed the filesize - 1 trick, but this had its own problems… To properly test this our webserver gains the ability to reply with transfer-encoding: chunked as most real webservers will use it to send the dynamically generated error pages. (The tests and their binary helpers had to be slightly modified to apply, but the patch to fix the issue itself is unchanged.) Closes: 768797

2014-11-28support long keyids in "apt-key del" instead of ignoring themJames McCoy
apt-key given a long keyid reports just "OK" all the time, but doesn't delete the mentioned key as it doesn't find the key. Note: In debian/experimental this was closed with 29f1b977100aeb6d6ebd38923eeb7a623e264ffe which just added the testcase as the rewrite of apt-key had fixed this as well. Closes: 754436
2014-11-28fix PTY interaction on linux and kfreebsdDavid Kalnischkies
We run dpkg on its own pty, so we can log its output and have our own output around it (like the progress bar), while also allowing debconf and configfile prompts to happen. In commit 223ae57d468fdcac451209a095047a07a5698212 we changed to constantly reopening the slave for kfreebsd. This has the sideeffect though that in some cases slave and master will lose their connection on linux, so that no output is passed along anymore. We fix this by having always an fd referencing the slave open (linux), but we don't use it (kfreebsd). Failing to get our PTY up and running has many (bad) consequences including (not limited to, nor all at ones or in any case) garbled ouput, no output, no logging, a (partial) mixture of the previous items, … This commit is therefore also reshuffling quiet a bit of the creation code to get especially the output part up and running on linux and the logging for kfreebsd. Note that the testcase tries to cover some cases, but this is an interactivity issue so only interactive usage can really be a good test. Closes: 765687
2014-11-28close leaking slave fd after setting up pty magicDavid Kalnischkies

2014-11-10deprecate the Section member from package structDavid Kalnischkies
A version belongs to a section and has hence a section member of its own. A package on the other hand can have multiple versions from different sections. This was "solved" by using the section which was parsed first as order of sources.list defines, but that is obviously a horribly unpredictable thing. Users are way better of with the Section() as returned by the version they are dealing with. It is likely the same for all versions of a package, but in the few cases it isn't, it is important (like packages moving from main/* to contrib/* or into oldlibs …). Backport of 7a66977 which actually instantly removes the member.
2014-11-10use 'best' hash for source authenticationDavid Kalnischkies
Collect all hashes we can get from the source record and put them into a HashStringList so that 'apt-get source' can use it instead of using always the MD5sum. We therefore also deprecate the MD5 struct member in favor of the list. While at it, the parsing of the Files is enhanced so that records which miss "Files" (aka MD5 checksums) are still searched for other checksums as they include just as much data, just not with a nice and catchy name. This is a cherry-pick of 1262d35 with some dirty tricks to preserve ABI. LP: 1098738
2014-11-10add a simple container for HashStringsDavid Kalnischkies
APT supports more than just one HashString and even allows to enforce the usage of a specific hash. This class is intended to help with storage and passing around of the HashStrings. The cherry-pick here the un-const-ification of HashType() compared to f4c3850ea335545e297504941dc8c7a8f1c83358. The point of this commit is adding infrastructure for the next one.

2014-10-08Update Status field values handlingGuillem Jover
Remove long obsolete (hold, hold-reinstreq, removal-failed) or just wrong (post-inst-failed vs postinst-failed) values, that have been autoconverted by dpkg at run-time to their new equivalents, so there should not be any such instance in any recent system (removal-failed since dpkg 1.1.4 in Apr 1996, hold and hold-reinstreq since dpkg 1.2.0 in May 1996). dpkg even stopped doing the mapping in 1.15.4 and 1.15.8 respectively. At the same time sort the list in the same order as they appear in the dpkg code.
