2016-08-29test, travis: Quieter testing with a new -qq modeJulian Andres Klode
Introduce a new -qq mode for our integration test framework, and make travis use it. The new -qq mode sets MSGLEVEL to 1. In MSGLEVEL=1, no messages are generated for passed tests, and all testcase filenames are printed in the same line. Also install first in travis, do not ls the installed output and run the install with chronic, so we only get output if it failed. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-29Switch documentation from httpredir.d.o to deb.d.oJulian Andres Klode
The CDN service deb.d.o is more reliable than the http redirector, so switch to it for our examples.
2016-08-29Add new symbols to symbols fileJulian Andres Klode
There are some optional symbols missing now, but let's keep them in for now, maybe they reappear/still exist on other platforms. The newly added ones actually appeared in older versions already, but there's no huge gain in finding out when precisely we added them.
2016-08-29init: Add Dir::Bin::planners default entryJulian Andres Klode
Apparently we had no default defined for this. Reported-By: David Kalnischkies
2016-08-29init: Fix path to external solversJulian Andres Klode
This accidentally had two apt in it. This fixes a regression from commit 8757a0f. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-29don't loop on pinning pkgs from absolute debs by regexDavid Kalnischkies
An absolute filename for a *.deb file starts with a /. A package with the name of the file is inserted in the cache which is provided by the "real" package for internal reasons. The pinning code detects a regex based wildcard by having the regex start with /. That is no problem as a / can not be included in a package name… expect that our virtual filename package can and does. We fix this two ways actually: First, a regex is only being considered a regex if it also ends with / (we don't support flags). That stops our problem with the virtual filename packages already, but to be sure we also do not enter the loop if matcher and package name are equal. It has to be noted that the creation of pins for virtual packages like the here effected filename packages is pointless as only versions can be pinned, but checking that a package is really purely virtual is too costly compared to just creating an unused pin. Closes: 835818
2016-08-29randomize acquire order for same type index filesDavid Kalnischkies
Without randomizing the order in which we download the index files we leak needlessly information to the mirrors of which architecture is native or foreign on this system. More importantly, we leak the order in which description translations will be used which in most cases will e.g. have the native tongue first. Note that the leak effect in practice is limited as apt detects if a file it wants to download is already available in the latest version from a previous download and does not query the server in such cases. Combined with the fact that Translation files are usually updated infrequently and not all at the same time, so a mirror can never be sure if it got asked about all files the user wants.
2016-08-27Merge branch 'portability/freebsd'Julian Andres Klode
2016-08-26CMake: Add missing iconv dependencyJulian Andres Klode
FreeBSD has two iconv systems: It ships an iconv.h itself, and symbols for that in the libc. But there's also the port of GNU libiconv, which unfortunately for us, Doxygen depends on. This changes things to prefer a separate libiconv library over the system one; that is, the port on FreeBSD. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26Make root group configurable via ROOT_GROUPJulian Andres Klode
This is needed on BSD where root's default group is wheel, not root.
2016-08-26test: Use :$(id -gn) instead of :root (when run as root)Julian Andres Klode
On BSD systems, the root group is wheel, not root, so let's just use the default group here. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Assert multi-arch in the chrootJulian Andres Klode
The host system might not have a dpkg installed, which makes dpkg fail with: dpkg not recorded as installed, cannot check for multi-arch support! That's entirely useless of course. We want to know if dpkg could support multi-arch in our chroot, so we pseudo-install dpkg into the chroot and pretend it's version is one version higher than the minimum dpkg version, so dpkg --assert-multi-arch works on recent dpkgs. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26changelog: Respect Dir setting for local changelog gettingJulian Andres Klode
This fixes issues with chroots, but the goal here was to get the test suite working on systems without dpkg.
2016-08-26Lower-case uname -r output in kernel autoremove helperJulian Andres Klode
This is needed on FreeBSD which has versions like 11.0-RC1, otherwise the tests would fail.
2016-08-26test: More portable check for dpkg versionsJulian Andres Klode
This check should work regardless if dpkg was installed by dpkg or by a native package manager like RPM or pkg. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Use a file to determine TEST_DEFAULT_GROUPJulian Andres Klode
This is more safe against sticky bits. For example, in FreeBSD all files created in /tmp have the group set to wheel. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26apt-inst: debfile: Pass comp. Name to ExtractTar, not BinaryJulian Andres Klode
In the old days, apt-inst used to use binaries, but now it uses the built-in support and matches using Name, and not a Binary.
2016-08-26test: Allow db_dump-5 instead of db_dumpJulian Andres Klode
Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26Always pass a directory to find before an optionJulian Andres Klode
On BSD systems, we cannot simply use find -name or stuff, we always have to pass a directory name first. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Fix invalid quoting in variable expansionJulian Andres Klode
This breaks the tests with FreeBSD's shell, and is not needed - it works fine without it. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Use printf "%b\n" instead of echo for strings with '\'Julian Andres Klode
Use of echo with special characters is not portable. On a normal POSIX system, the behavior with backslash escaped strings is implementation-defined. On an XSI-conformant system, they must be interpreted. A way out is the printf command - printf "%b" specifies that the following argument is to be printed with backslash escapes interpreted. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Make sure we always find a dpkg in status fileJulian Andres Klode
Especially on non-Debian platforms, dpkg might not list itself on the host system, and thus dpkg --assert-multi-arch fails. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Avoid use of /proc/self/fdJulian Andres Klode
Use /dev/fd in test-bug-712116-dpkg-pre-install-pkgs-hook-multiarch, skip test-no-fds-leaked-to-maintainer-scripts (it is not guaranteed that /dev/fd contains all file descriptors), and avoid the unneeded use of /proc/fd in another test case. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Explicitly pass --admindir=var/lib/dpkg to dpkgJulian Andres Klode
Our test suite assumes that dpkg's admindir is var/lib/dpkg. This might not always be true; for example, on FreeBSD, it is located at /var/db/dpkg. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Fix building of noopchrootJulian Andres Klode

2016-08-26test: Allow moreutils-parallel instead of parallelJulian Andres Klode
That's what it's called on FreeBSD. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Allow stunnel to be used instead of stunnel4Julian Andres Klode
This is needed for Fedora and FreeBSD. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Substitute GNU commands for other commands where availableJulian Andres Klode
We are simply checking for gnuCMD and gCMD for each command we are interested in. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26test: Use C locale instead of C.UTF-8Julian Andres Klode
Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26Make directory paths configurableJulian Andres Klode
This allows other vendors to use different paths, or to build your own APT in /opt for testing. Note that this uses + 1 in some places, as the paths we receive are absolute, but we need to strip of the initial /.
2016-08-26apt-key: Only use readlink -f for existing componentsJulian Andres Klode
On FreeBSD, readlink -f requires the last component to exist.
2016-08-26Use C locale instead of C.UTF-8 for protocol stringsJulian Andres Klode
The C.UTF-8 locale is not portable, so we need to use C, otherwise we crash on other systems. We can use std::locale::classic() for that, which might also be a bit cheaper than using locale("C").
2016-08-26CMake: Add support for libintlJulian Andres Klode
This basically just links everything to libintl if USE_NLS is on. It would be better to just link those targets that are actually translated, but doing so is a huge PITA. Also move the include_directories() for the build-tree include/ directory to the top of the CMakeLists.txt, otherwise it only gets passed after Intl_INCLUDE_DIRS, which means we will built against installed apt-pkg headers (if any) instead of our own. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26Accept --autoremove as alias for --auto-removeJulian Andres Klode
I probably missed that when I did the usability work. But better late than never.
2016-08-26CMake: Handle Berkeley DB on FreeBSDJulian Andres Klode
The BSD systems still ship their own db.h with a historical BSD implementation, which is preferred by CMake, as it searches its default path first. We thus have to disable the DEFAULT_PATH for the search, unfortunately. We also need to pass the correct include directory to the target. Furthermore, on FreeBSD the library is called db-<VERSION>, so let's add db-5 to the list of allowed names. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26methods/connect.cc: Only use AI_IDN if definedJulian Andres Klode
Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26CMake/private-download: Fix statfs includes on FreeBSDJulian Andres Klode
On FreeBSD, we have to include sys/params.h and sys/mount.h, not sys/vfs.h. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26CMake: Add FindLZ4 and FindLZMAJulian Andres Klode
This makes things work with /usr/local on FreeBSD. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26CMake: Do not use -lresolv if res_init exists in libcJulian Andres Klode

2016-08-26CMake: Handle BSD platforms with sig_t instead of sighandler_tJulian Andres Klode
Somewhat annoying, but OK. Might want to switch to something more clever to get rid of the typedef at all. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-08-26Add missing includes and external definitionsJulian Andres Klode
Several modules use std::array without including the array header. Bad modules. Some modules use STDOUT_FILENO and friends, or close() without including unistd.h, where they are defined. One module also uses WIFEXITED() without including sys/wait.h. Finally, environ is not specified to be defined in unistd.h. We are required to define it ourselves according to POSIX, so let's do that.
2016-08-25treat .ddeb files like .deb, especially for dpkgDavid Kalnischkies
Ubuntu uses *.ddeb files for their debug packages, but the interface we are using since f495992428a396e0f98886c9a761a804aa161c68 to talk to dpkg isn't supporting *.ddeb files. This used to work previously as apt itself isn't caring about the filenames at all and if they are explicitly mentioned dpkg will accept all, too. It might or might not be a good idea to patch dpkg, too, but regardless of it happening, we don't want to couple us to closely to dpkg for this minor feature but testing for this at runtime as it would delay shipping the fix for the too long commandlines further. It is also questionable if it is really a good idea to allow any file extension to be used here (like .foobar in the testcase), but we used to and we tend to avoid breaking existing usecases if we can help it. As a bonus, this also allows the installation of ddeb files directly from the commandline as you can with deb files already. We continue to ignore udeb through as the user-mistake to useful ratio is too high. LP: #1616909
2016-08-25show apt-key warnings in apt updateDavid Kalnischkies
In 105503b4b470c124bc0c271bd8a50e25ecbe9133 we got a warning implemented for unreadable files which greatly improves the behavior of apt update already as everything will work as long as we don't need the keys included in these files. The behavior if they are needed is still strange through as update will fail claiming missing keys and a manual test (which the user will likely perform as root) will be successful. Passing the new warning generated by apt-key through to apt is a bit strange from an interface point of view, but basically duplicating the warning code in multiple places doesn't feel right either. That means we have no translation for the message through as apt-key has no i18n yet. It also means that if the user has a bunch of sources each of them will generate a warning for each unreadable file which could result in quite a few duplicated warnings, but "too many" is better than none. Closes: 834973
2016-08-25apt-key: warn instead of fail on unreadable keyringsDavid Kalnischkies
apt-key has inconsistent behaviour if it can't read a keyring file: Commands like 'list' skipped silently over such keyrings while 'verify' failed hard resulting in apt to report cconfusing gpg errors (#834973). As a first step we teach apt-key to be more consistent here skipping in all commands over unreadable keyrings, but issuing a warning in the process, which is as usual for apt commands displayed at the end of the run.
2016-08-24do not restore selections for already purged packagesDavid Kalnischkies
In most cases apt was already skipping the (re)setting of packages as to be removed/purged if dpkg had told us that it already did, but we haven't dealt with it in the most obvious of the cases: Selections set for packages we touched in this operation which either restores selections even dpkg would have overridden or e.g. tries to restore a purge selection for a package which was just purged – does not happen with apt itself as it isn't using selections in this way, but higher frontends like aptitude do. The result in the later case is a warning printed by dpkg that we try to set selections for an unknown package, which is harmless per se, but can be confusing for users and we really shouldn't cause warnings in dpkg if we can help it.

2016-08-24do fail on weakhash/loop earlier in acquireDavid Kalnischkies
The bugreport shows a segfault caused by the code not doing the correct magical dance to remove an item from inside a queue in all cases. We could try hard to fix this, but it is actually better and also easier to perform these checks (which cause instant failure) earlier so that they haven't entered queue(s) yet, which in return makes cleanup trivial. The result is that we actually end up failing "too early" as if we wouldn't be careful download errors would be logged before that process was even started. Not a problem for the acquire system, but likely to confuse users and programs alike if they see the download process producing errors before apt was technically allowed to do an acquire (it didn't, so no violation, but it looks like it to the untrained eye).
