Servers who advertise that they close the connection get the 'Closes'
encoding flag, but this conflicts with servers who response with a
transfer-encoding (e.g. encoding) as it is saved in the same flag.
We have a better flag for the keep-alive (or not) of the connection
anyway, so we check this instead of the encoding.
This is in practice not much of a problem as real servers we talk to are
HTTP1.1 servers (with keep-alive) and there isn't much point in doing
chunked encoding if you are going to close anyway, but our simple
testserver stumbles over this if pressed and its a bit cleaner, too.

file sends information about the uncompressed file if it can find it as
well as for the compressed file. This was done only for gzip so far, but
we support more compression types. That this information isn't used a
lot is a different story.

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 was 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 a size-mismatch warning. Reducing the scope and redesigning
the setting of the values we can fix this and related issues.

It might be quite interesting which file (content) made curl freak out

We just need it for unit tests and our debian/rules file actually skips
calling them if nocheck is given… but this fails anyhow as we declared a
hard-dependency on it. Demoting the error to a warning in configuration
and adding a test in the 'make test' path with a friendly message allows
nocheck to be useful again.
(Running unit tests is fully encouraged of course, but bootstrappers and
co do not need to be burdened with this stuff)

On single-arch the parsing was creating groupnames like 'apt:amd64' even
through it should be 'apt' and a package in it belonging to architecture
amd64. The result for foreign architectures was as expected: The
dependency isn't satisfiable, but for native architecture it means the
wrong package (ala apt:amd64:amd64) is linked so this is also not
satisfiable, which is very much not expected.
No longer excluding single-arch from this codepath allows the generation
of the correct links, which still link to non-exisiting packages for
foreign dependencies, but natives link to the expected native package
just as if no architecture was given.
For negative arch-specific dependencies ala Conflicts this matter was
worse as apt will believe there isn't a Conflict to resolve, tricking it
into calculating a solution dpkg will refuse.
Architecture specific positive dependencies are rare in jessie – the
only one in amd64 main is foreign –, negative dependencies do not even
exist. Neither class has a native specimen, so no package in jessie is
effected by this bug, but it might be interesting for stretch upgrades.
This also means the regression potential is very low.

In #780028 we were discussing how the or-group order should be more
important than keep-back decisions of 'upgrade'. We have this behaviour,
but to ensure it stays this way lets add a test for it.

Working with strings c-style is complicated and error-prune,
so by converting to c++ style we gain some simplicity and

gnupg is case-insensitive about keyids, so back then apt-key called it
directly any keyid was accepted, but now that we work more with the
keyid ourself we regressed to require uppercase keyids by accident.
This is also inconsistent with other apt-key commands which still use
gnupg directly. A single case-insensitive grep and we are fine again.

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.

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.

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.

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.

As part of the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that
apt could not be built reproducibly.
One issue is that it uses the __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros of the C
preprocessor to display the time of build in the online help. We believe
this information not to be really useful to users as they can always
look at the package data and metadata to figure it out.
The attached patch simply removes this information. All
non-documentation packages can then be built reproducibly with our
current experimental framework.
[David: changed the string slightly to be untranslateable as well]

The underlying problem is that libapt-pkg does not correctly parse these
provides. Internally, it creates a version named "baz:i386" with
architecture amd64. Of course, such a package name is invalid and thus
this version is completely inaccessible. Thus, this bug should not cause
apt to accept a broken situation as valid. Nevertheless, it prevents
using architecture qualified depends.

This way the 'correct' version is carried over into the po files to
reflect which version they were built for rather than the version before
the current one.

Implementing FileName() works for most cases for us, but other
frontends might need more and even for us its not very stable as
the normal Jump() implementation is pretty bad on a deb file and
produce errors on its own at times.
So, replacing this makeshift with a complete implementation by
mostly just shuffling code around.

Bug #778375 uncovered that https wasn't properly integrated in the class
family tree of http as it was supposed to be leading to a NULL pointer
dereference. Fixing this 'properly' was deemed to much diff for
practically no gain that late in the release, so commit
0c2dc43d4fe1d026650b5e2920a021557f9534a6 just fixed the synptom, while
this commit here is fixing the cause plus adding a test.

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.

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.

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.
|
|
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.

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.

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).

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.

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).

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.)
