2017-04-25systemd: Rework timing and add After=network-onlineJulian Andres Klode
The timeout values were so large that the timer could run at any random time of the day, possibly easily interfering with business hours, and causing trouble. Reduce them to 30 minutes of random delay and an accuracy to the default value (1 minute). Also drop the 18:00 event. People still actively use their device during that time, and for servers, there might be less attendance than in the regular 06:00 time slot, so longer time to fix things if something breaks. During a boot, the service might be run to catch up with a timer that would have normally elapsed. Due to no dependencies, it would have run before the network is online - that's bad. Adding an After and a Wants fixes that for boots, but still leaves the same issue for Resume. LP: #1615482 (cherry picked from commit b4f32b13055287d2ac46a08255db475af195b5f7)
2017-04-25Fix and avoid quoting in CommandLine::AsStringDavid Kalnischkies
In the intended usecase where this serves as a hack there is no problem with double/single quotes being present as we write it to a log file only, but nowadays our calling of apt-key produces a temporary config file containing this "setting" as well and suddently quoting is important as the config file syntax is allergic to it. So the fix is to ignore all quoting whatsoever in the input and just quote (with singles) the option values with spaces. That gives us 99% of the time the correct result and the 1% where the quote is an integral element of the option … doesn't exist – or has bigger problems than a log file not containing the quote. Same goes for newlines in values. LP: #1672710 (cherry picked from commit 2ce15bdeac6ee93faefd4b42b57f035bef80c567)

2017-02-22Don't use -1 fd and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW for faccessat()Julian Andres Klode
-1 is not an allowed value for the file descriptor, the only allowed non-file-descriptor value is AT_FDCWD. So use that instead. AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW has a weird semantic: It checks whether we have the specified access on the symbolic link. It also is implemented only by glibc on Linux, so it's inherently non-portable. We should just drop it. Thanks: James Clarke for debugging these issues Reported-by: James Clarke <jrtc27@jrtc27.com> (cherry picked from commit 25f54c960d7a4ceca7bd3e21f87baf48d6cbc2d3)
2017-02-22Do not package names representing .dsc/.deb/... filesJulian Andres Klode
In the case of build-dep and other commands where a file can be passed we must make sure not to normalize the path name as that can have odd side effects, or well, cause the operation to do nothing. Test for build-dep-file is adjusted to perform the vcard check once as "vcard" and once as "VCard", thus testing that this solves the reported bug. We inline the std::transform() and optimize it a bit to not write anything in the common case (package names are defined to be lowercase, the whole transformation is just for names that should not exist...) to counter the performance hit of the added find() call (it's about 0.15% more instructions than with the existing transform, but we save about 0.67% in writes...).

2017-02-22Only merge acquire items with the same meta keyJulian Andres Klode
Since the introduction of by-hash, two differently named files might have the same real URL. In our case, the files icons-64x64.tar.gz and icons-128x128.tar.gz of empty tarballs. APT would try to merge them and end with weird errors because it completed the first download and enters the second stage for decompressing and verifying. After that it would queue a new item to copy the original file to the location, but that copy item would be in the wrong stage, causing it to use the hashes for the decompressed item.

2017-02-22travis: Run test suites for root and user in separate build jobsJulian Andres Klode
This hopefully cuts down on the test time. Optimally, we'd just have one build job and parallize, but that requires a tty or something, probably due to GNU parallel? Gbp-Dch: ignore (cherry picked from commit 9b7c71f145e51c2d655ef09fca434d02db08331d)
2017-02-22basehttp: Only read Content-Range on 416 and 206 responsesJulian Andres Klode
This fixes issues with sourceforge where the redirector includes such a Content-Range in a 302 redirect. Since we do not really know what file is meant in a redirect, let's just ignore it for all responses other than 416 and 206. Maybe we should also get rid of the other errors, and just ignore the field in those cases as well? LP: #1657567 (cherry picked from commit 4759a702081297bde66982efed8b2b7fd39ca27c)
2017-02-22stop rred from leaking debug messages on recovered errorsDavid Kalnischkies
rred can fail for a plentory of reasons, but its failure is usually recoverable (Ign lines) so it shouldn't leak unrequested debug messages to an observing user. Closes: #850759 (cherry picked from commit 2984d7aec37e09b473c7b99f43d20622c25dc99d)
2017-02-22remove 'old' FAILED files in the next acquire callDavid Kalnischkies
If apt renames a file to .FAILED it leaves its namespace and is never touched again – expect since 1.1~exp4 in which "apt clean" will remove those files. The usefulness of these files rapidly degrades if you don't keep the update log itself (together with debug output in the best case) through and on 99% of all system they will be kept around forever just to collect dust over time and eat up space. With this commit an update call will remove all FAILED files of previous runs, so that the FAILED files you have on disk are always only the ones related to the last apt run stopping apt from hoarding files. Closes: 846476 (cherry picked from commit 7ca83492e802967f183babf06ab541b1b51f1703)
2017-02-22fix 'install --no-download' modeDavid Kalnischkies
The mode wasn't working at all if not used together with --fix-missing which while likely to come in pairs its legal to use standalone. Regression-in: eb1f04dda07c2b69549ad9fd793cca0e91841b3e (cherry picked from commit 3313eaf97c83177433478505c05815ab02f9782b)
2017-02-22avoid validate/delete/load race in cache generationDavid Kalnischkies
Keeping the Fd of the cache file we have validated around to later load it into the mmap ensures not only that we load the same file (which wouldn't really be a problem in practice), but that this file also still exists and wasn't deleted e.g. by a 'apt clean' call run in parallel.

2017-02-22don't lock dpkg in update commandsDavid Kalnischkies
The update command acquires a lock on lists/, but at the end it will also require the dpkg/lock while building the binary caches. That seems rather pointless as we are only reading those files, not causing writing in them. This can also cause problems if a package installation is running and a background process (like cron) starts an update: If you are "lucky" enough the update process will pick the dpkg lock in between apt calls causing the installation process to fail. (cherry picked from commit 0d9081598afa051409b03dbdbe5025cd7ce59ba4)
2017-02-22don't lock dpkg in 'apt-get clean'David Kalnischkies
We get the archives/lock for clean – that is enough to ensure that other apt instances aren't interfering (or are being interfered with). We don't need to block actions involving dpkg. (cherry picked from commit 22acd327ac39ffe3bb14b3e1f2d1f21761de13ca)
2017-02-22don't show update stats if cache generation is disabledDavid Kalnischkies
Unlikely that anyone is actually running into this, but if we asked to not generate a cache and avoid it in the first step we shouldn't create one implicitly anyway by displaying the statistics. (cherry picked from commit 33f982b90a4f77be18cb82daf8c79e9c5513761c)
2017-02-22fix minimum pkgs option for dpkg --recursive usageDavid Kalnischkies
Interpreting a boolean as an int works just fine – it just hasn't the intended result – it isn't a serious problem through as the disabling of the usage of this dpkg calling style is just an "optimization" (cherry picked from commit 4e18c2cee6da39982cc463cafbf27eab5561099f)
2017-02-22use FindB instead of FindI for Debug::pkgAutoRemoveDavid Kalnischkies
Again no practical difference, but for consistency a boolean option should really be accessed via a boolean method rather than an int especially if you happen to try setting the option to "true" … Gbp-Dch: Ignore (cherry picked from commit c15ba854b6736696f164e4d2c243a944e2d4006e)
2017-02-22avoid producing invalid options if repo has no hostDavid Kalnischkies

The crude way of preparing a message to be a multiline value failed at generation valid deb822 in case the error message ended with a new line like the resolving errors from apt do. apt itself can parse these, but other tools like grep-dctrl choke on it, so be nice and print valid.

2017-02-22bash-completion: Only complete understood file paths for installJohn R. Lenton
Previouosly apt's bash completion was such that, given $ mkdir xyzzz $ touch xyzzy.deb xyzzx.two.deb you'd get $ apt install xyzz<tab> xyzzx.two.deb xyzzz/ $ apt install /tmp/foo/xyzz<tab> xyzzx.two.deb xyzzz/ this is inconsistent (xyzzx.two.deb is listed but not xyzzy.deb), but worse than that it offered things that apt would not actually recognise as candidates for install: $ sudo apt install xyzzx.two.deb Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package xyzzx.two.deb E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'xyzzx.two.deb' E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'xyzzx.two.deb' With this small (trival, really) change, apt's bash completion will only offer things apt understands, and won't recquire an aditional period in the filename to offer it: $ apt install xyzz<tab>^C $ # (no completions!) $ apt install ./xyzz<tab> xyzzx.two.deb xyzzy.deb xyzzz/ $ apt install /tmp/foo/xyzz xyzzx.two.deb xyzzy.deb xyzzz/ fixes #28 LP: #1645815 (cherry picked from commit 6761dae5d0c372d132b0df91753120b59e30fd0e)

2017-02-22get pdiff files from the same mirror as the indexDavid Kalnischkies
In ad9416611ab83f7799f2dcb4bf7f3ef30e9fe6f8 we fall back to asking the original mirror (e.g. a redirector) if we do not get the expected result. This works for the indexes, but patches are a different beast and much simpler. Adding this fallback code here seems like overkill as they are usually right along their Index file, so actually forward the relevant settings to the patch items which fixes pdiff support combined with a redirector and partial mirrors as in such a situation the pdiff patches would be 404 and the complete index would be downloaded.

2017-02-22do not configure unconfigured to be removed packagesDavid Kalnischkies
We try to configure all packages at the end which need to be configured, but that also applies to packages which weren't completely installed (e.g. maintainerscript failed) we end up removing in this interaction instead. APT doesn't perform this explicit configure in the end as it is using "dpkg --configure --pending", but it does confuse the progress report and potentially also hook scripts.

2017-02-22don't perform implicit crossgrades involving M-A:sameDavid Kalnischkies
dpkg stumbles over these (#844300) and we haven't dropped 'easier' removes to be implicit and to be scheduled by dpkg by default so far so we shouldn't push the decision in such cases to dpkg either. (cherry picked from commit 53f3fc59f4eb37eea57bbde53fb75f2e15af0378)
2017-02-22improve arch-unqualified dpkg-progress parsingDavid Kalnischkies
Our old idea was to look for the first package which would be "touched" and take this as the package dpkg is talking about, but that is incorrect in complicated situations like a package upgraded to/from multiple M-A:same siblings installed. As we us the progress report to decide what is still needed we have to be reasonabily right about the package dpkg is talking about, so we jump to quite a few loops to get it.

2017-02-22correct cross & disappear progress detectionDavid Kalnischkies
Given that we use the progress information to skip over actions dpkg has already done like not purging a package which was already removed and had no config files or not acting on disappeared packages and such it is important that apt and dpkg agree on which states the package has to pass through. To ensure that we keep tabs on this in the future a warning is added at the end if apt hasn't seen all the action it was supposed to see. I can't wait for the first bugreporters to wonder about this… (cherry picked from commit dabe9e2482180ada77d2adda2b3c03db22059fb8)
2017-02-22react to trig-pend only if we have nothing else to doDavid Kalnischkies
If a package is triggered dpkg frequently issues two messages about it causing us to make a note about it both times which messes up our planned dpkg actions view. Adding these actions if we have nothing else planned fixes this and should still be correct as those planned actions will deal with the triggering just fine and we avoid strange problems like a package triggered before its removed… (cherry picked from commit 066d4a5bab628ef8220971bb5763ff8f3a13de07)
2017-02-22http: clear content before reporting the failureEdgar Fuß
[Comment from commiter:] I have the feeling that the issue itself is fixed for a while already as nowadays we have testcases involving a webserver closing the connection on error (look for "closeOnError") and no even remotely recent reports about it, but moving the content clearance above the failure report is a valid change and shouldn't hurt.

We can't cleanup the environment like e.g. sudo would do as you usually want the environment to "leak" into these helpers, but some variables like HOME should really not have still the value of the root user – it could confuse the helpers (USER) and HOME isn't accessible anyhow.

2017-02-22keep Release.gpg on untrusted to trusted IMS-HitDavid Kalnischkies
A user relying on the deprecated behaviour of apt-get to accept a source with an unknown pubkey to install a package containing the key expects that the following 'apt-get update' causes the source to be considered as trusted, but in case the source hadn't changed in the meantime this wasn't happening: The source kept being untrusted until the Release file was changed. This only effects sources not using InRelease and only apt-get, the apt binary downright refuses this course of actions, but it is a common way of adding external sources. Closes: 838779 (cherry picked from commit 84eec207be35b8c117c430296d4c212b079c00c1) LP: #1657440
2017-02-22don't install new deps of candidates for kept back pkgsDavid Kalnischkies
In effect this is an extension of the 6 years old commit a8dfff90aa740889eb99d00fde5d70908d9fd88a which uses the autoremover to remove packages again from the solution which are no longer needed to be there. Commonly these are dependencies of packages we end up not installed due to problem resolver decisions. Slightly less common is the situation we deal with here: a package which we wanted to upgrade sporting a new dependency, but ended up holding back. The problem is that all versions of an installed reverse dependencies can bring back a "garbage" package – we need to do this as there is nothing inherently wrong in having garbage packages installed or upgrade them, which itself would have garbage dependencies, so just blindly killing all new garbage packages would prevent the upgrade (and actually generate errors). What we should be doing is looking only at the version we will have on the system, disregarding all old/new reverse dependencies.

2017-01-17https: Quote path in URL before passing it to curlJulian Andres Klode
Curl requires URLs to be urlencoded. We are however giving it undecoded URLs. This causes it go completely nuts if there is a space in the URI, producing requests like: GET /a file HTTP/1.1 which the servers then interpret as a GET request for "/a" with HTTP version "file" or some other non-sense. This works around the issue by encoding the path component of the URL. I'm not sure if we should encode other parts of the URL as well, this one seems to do the trick for the actual issue at hand. A more correct fix is to avoid the dequoting and (re-)quoting of URLs when a redirect occurs / a new request is sent. That's been on the radar for probably a year or two now, but nobody bothered implementing that yet. LP: #1651923 (cherry picked from commit 994515e689dcc5f963f5fed58284831750a5da03)

2016-12-08gpgv: Flush the files before checking for errorsJulian Andres Klode
This is a follow up to the previous issue where we did not check if getline() returned -1 due to an end of file or due to an error like memory allocation, treating both as end of file. Here we ensure that we also handle buffered writes correctly by flushing the files before checking for any errors in our error stack. Buffered writes themselves were introduced in 1.1.9, but the function was never called with a buffered file from inside apt until commit 46c4043d741cb2c1d54e7f5bfaa234f1b7580f6c which was first released with apt 1.2.10. The function is public, though, so fixing this is a good idea anyway. Affected: >= 1.1.9 (cherry picked from commit 6212ee84a517ed68217429022bd45c108ecf9f85)
2016-12-08SECURITY UPDATE: gpgv: Check for errors when splitting files (CVE-2016-1252)Julian Andres Klode
This fixes a security issue where signatures of the InRelease files could be circumvented in a man-in-the-middle attack, giving attackers the ability to serve any packages they want to a system, in turn giving them root access. It turns out that getline() may not only return EINVAL as stated in the documentation - it might also return in case of an error when allocating memory. This fix not only adds a check that reading worked correctly, it also implicitly checks that all writes worked by reporting any other error that occurred inside the loop and was logged by apt.
