2015-11-04suggest 'apt autoremove' to get right of unneeded packagesDavid Kalnischkies
The bugreport is more conservative in asking for a conditional, but given that this is a message intended to be read by users to be run by users we should suggest using a command intended to be used by users. And while we are at, add sudo to the message – conditional of course. Closes: 801571
2015-11-04refer to apt-secure(8) in unsecure repositories warningDavid Kalnischkies
The manpage is also slightly updated to work better as a central hub to push people from all angles into the right directions without writting a book disguised as an error message.
2015-11-04rework errors and warnings around insecure repositoriesDavid Kalnischkies
Insecure (aka unsigned) repositories are bad, period. We want to get right of them finally and as a first step we are printing scary warnings. This is already done, this commit just changes the messages to be more consistent and prevents them from being displayed if authenticity is guaranteed some other way (as indicated with trusted=yes). The idea is to first print the pure fact like "repository isn't signed" as a warning (and later as an error), while giving an explaination in a immediately following notice (which is displayed only in quiet level 0: so in interactive use, not in scripts and alike). Closes: 796549
2015-11-04set failreasons similar to connect.cc based on curl errorsDavid Kalnischkies
Detecting network errors has some benefits in the acquire system as if we can't connect to a host trying it for a million files is pointless. http and co which use connect.cc deal with this, but https which uses curl had connection failures as "normal" errors which could potentially be worked around (like trying Release instead of the failed InRelease).

2015-11-04revert accidental removal of documentation for trusted option in sources.listDavid Kalnischkies
In b0d408547734100bf86781615f546487ecf390d9 I accidently removed the documentation for Trusted and replaced it with Signed-By instead of adding it. Git-Dch: Ignore

2015-11-04support .deb files in upgrade operations as wellDavid Kalnischkies
The main part is refactoring through to allow hiding the magic needed to support .deb files in deeper layers of libapt so that frontends have less exposure to Debian specific classes like debDebPkgFileIndex.
2015-11-04show progress info while 'downloading' a local .deb fileDavid Kalnischkies
Showing just "Get: [1234 B]" looks very strange, so we now print the filename and as usual the package name, version and architecture.
2015-11-04unbreak the copy-method claiming hashsum mismatch since ~exp9David Kalnischkies
Commit 653ef26c70dc9c0e2cbfdd4e79117876bb63e87d broke the camels back in sofar that everything works in terms of our internal use of copy:/, but external use is completely destroyed. This is kinda the reverse of what happened in "parallel" in the sid branch, where external use was mostly fine, internal and external exploded on the GzipIndexes option. We fix this now by rewriting our internal use by letting copy:/ only do what the name suggests it does: Copy files and not uncompress them on-the-fly. Then we teach copy and the uncompressors how to deal with /dev/null and use it as destination file in case we don't want to store the uncompressed files on disk. Closes: 799158

2015-11-04tests: change test-skipping detection for arch-specific pkgsDavid Kalnischkies
dpkg-checkbuilddeps changed its exitcodes in the recent past so the old check always fails now skipping the test. Lets try a slightly more stable (at least assume it to be) variant of detecting this. See also 4f6d26b4d41474aa390329b7e9cb167eb70b2821. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-11-04drop privileges in file:// method as we do for decompressorsDavid Kalnischkies
We drop it in decompressors, which are the natural next step, so if an archive is used which isn't worldreadable (= not accessible by _apt) it doesn't work anyway, so we just fail a bit earlier now and avoid all the bad things which can happen over file (which could very well still be a network resourc via NFS mounts or similar stuff, so hardly as safe as the name might suggest at first).
2015-11-04allow all dpkg selections to be set via apt-mark and libaptDavid Kalnischkies
As we have support for 'hold', we need support for undoing a hold which in effect means that we implemented most other states as well, just that they weren't exposed in the interface directly so far.
2015-11-04provide public interface to hold/unhold packagesDavid Kalnischkies
We had this code lying around in apt-mark for a while now, but other frontends need this (and similar) functionality as well, so its high time that we provide a public interface in libapt for this stuff.
2015-11-04refactor dpkg execution in deb/debsystemDavid Kalnischkies
We have a few places and there will be a few more still where we have to call dpkg to detect/set certain features or settings. Centralizing the calling infrastructure now seems like a good idea before we add another.
2015-11-04switch 'apt-mark hold' from Pkg to Ver based operationDavid Kalnischkies
Users hold a package foo (at version X) or try to prevent the installation of foo (usually based on the information they know about version X), even if we say that we "hold a package". Conceptionally we also need to know about which architecture we are talking and that is an information bound to a version (as a package can change architecture over time). We internally did this lookup from Pkg to Ver already, we just move this to a central place where the user has a change to influence it now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-11-04add cacheset push_back wrapping for std::back_inserterDavid Kalnischkies
As usual by now, not all containers wrapped by the cacheset containers support all methods, like push_back now, but they fail on use of these unusable methods only. Would be nice to not expose these methods for unsupporting containers at all, but that means either a lot of classes or a lot of std::enable_if magic, which seems like too big work for this small wrapper for now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-11-04implement operator* for cacheset iteratorsDavid Kalnischkies
Technically an abi-break as we change a template parameter to std::iterator for this, but this class is empty in all instances and just causes the right typedefs to be set – which were incorrect as detected by std::stable_partition as its implementation uses ::pointer and needs also a operator* implementation. In practice CacheSets have no external users (yet) and the difference is visible only at compile time (which was an error before and now works), not while linking. The changes to apt-mark are functionally identical to the code before, just that we use a std:: algorithm now instead of trying hard on our own.
2015-11-04implement a public pkgSystem::ArchitecturesSupportedDavid Kalnischkies
2015-11-04implement a public pkgSystem::MultiArchSupportedDavid Kalnischkies
Some codepaths need to check if the system (in our case usually dpkg) supports MultiArch or not. We had copy-pasted the check so far into these paths, but having it as a system check is better for reusability.
2015-11-04travis: move 'make' into the install targetDavid Kalnischkies
This auto-collapses the output and doesn't run the tests if we compiling fails as a bonus. Git-Dch: Ignore

2015-10-30Provide tests for thread-safetyJulian Andres Klode
These scripts currently produce HTML output that is directly piped into an HTML file on alioth. There are three categories. The first two check external library calls to use the ones specified by POSIX to be thread-safe. The main profile excludes functions that are thread-safe on Linux or glibc in general, while the portable output strictly follows posix. The internal.html output lists internal function calls, such as configuration setting. This is supposed to be automated further at some point, so we can automatically check for regressions.

2015-10-30cacheset: Fix compilation on new GCC in C++98 modeJulian Andres Klode
Since gcc 4.9, the API for erase slightly changed. In commit 3dddcdf2432e78f37c74d8c76c2c519a8d935ab2 the existing checks for __cplusplus where changed to check the gcc version, as the __cplusplus check did nothing, because gcc 4.8 already provided the standard value in there. Fix the code to check for the gcc version in two more places, and change the existing checks to use a convenience macro.

2015-10-11.travis.yml: Add pinned vivid for gettext and clean up a bitJulian Andres Klode
This adds a vivid pinned to -1, cleans up the file a bit by removing duplicate commands, and finally installs gettext with a new apt-get run that is passed -t vivid. The syntax for the pinning is some weird YAML stuff I don't want to think about...
2015-10-11Revert "Fix select timeout to be 50msec instead of 0.5msec" for acquireJulian Andres Klode
The acquire system actually uses usec pulse intervals, so the previous value was correct (500ms) whereas the new value is now 5s. It's a bit unfortunate that the two systems use different units for pulse intervals, but probably not much we can do about it. This partially reverts commit eaf21c2144fa8dc4be8581dc69cf88cb38e30ce2.

2015-09-15tests: add a -j $jobs mode to test runner for parallel executionDavid Kalnischkies
Now that tests can be run in parallel, lets actually do it… The mode has some downsides like not collecting the failed tests, but it can be a lot faster than a sequential run and is therefore a good alternative in testing those "this shouldn't break anything" changes (which tend to break everything if untested).

2015-09-14fallback to well-known URI if by-hash failsDavid Kalnischkies
We uses a small trick to implement the fallback: We make it so, that by-hash is a special compression algorithm and apt already knows how to deal with fallback between compression algorithms. The drawback with implementing this fallback is that a) we are guessing again and more importantly b) by-hash is only tried for the first compression algorithm we want to acquire, not for all as before – but flipping between by-hash and well-known for each compression algorithm seems to be not really worth it as it seems unlikely that there will actually be mirrors who only mirror a subset of compressioned files, but have by-hash enabled. The user-experience is the usual fallback one: You see "Ign" lines in the apt update output. The fallback is implemented as a transition feature, so a (potentially huge) mirror network doesn't need a flagday. It is not meant as a "someday we might" or "we don't, but some of our mirrors might" option – we want to cut down on the 'Ign' lines front so that they become meaningful – if we wanted to spam everyone with them, we could enable by-hash by default for all repositories… sources.list and config options are better suited for this. Closes: 798919
2015-09-14add by-hash sources.list option and document all of by-hashDavid Kalnischkies
This changes the semantics of the option (which is renamed too) to be a yes/no value with the special additional value "force" as this allows by-hash to be disabled even if the repository indicates it would be supported and is more in line with our other yes/no options like pdiff which disable themselves if no support can be detected. The feature wasn't documented so far and hasn't reached a (un)stable release yet, so changing it without trying too hard to keep compatibility seems okay.
2015-09-14tests: try to support spaces in TMPDIRDavid Kalnischkies
Not all tests work yet, most notable the cdrom tests, but those require changes in libapt itself to have a proper fix and what we have fixed so far is good enough progress for now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-09-14deal with spaces in path, command and filepaths in apt-keyDavid Kalnischkies
Filenames we get could include spaces, but also the tmpdir we work in and the failures we print in return a very generic and unhelpful… Properly supporting spaces is a bit painful as we constructed gpg command before, which is now moved to (multilevel) calls to temporary scripts instead.
