writable media
|
|
|
|
- if apt-cdrom is used on writable media (like usb-sticks), do
not use the root directory to identify the medium (as all
changes there change the ident id). Use the .disk directory
instead
|
|
- create Dir::Log if needed to support /var/log as tmpfs or similar,
inspired by Thomas Bechtold, thanks! (Closes: #523919, LP: #220239)
Easily done by moving a private method from pkgAcquire into the public
area of fileutl.cc to be able to use it also in here
|
|
- fix autoremove by using correct config-option name and
don't make faulty assumptions in error handling (Closes: #594689)
|
|
- apply SilentlyIgnore also on files without an extension
|
|
- fix error checking for vsnprintf in its safe variant
Spotted by -Wextra:
contrib/strutl.cc: In function 'char* safe_snprintf(char*, char*, const char*, ...)':
contrib/strutl.cc:1172:14: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
- use Notice instead of Error in the CacheSetHelper messages
for compat reasons. Otherwise tools like sbuild blow up
|
|
|
|
- docstring cleanup
|
|
- Add FileFd::OpenDescriptor() (needed for python-apt's #383617).
|
|
* debian/rules:
- Make DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt actually work by passing the right
CXXFLAGS.
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.{h,cc}:
- Add support for reading of gzipped files with the new "ReadOnlyGzip"
OpenMode. (Closes: #188407)
- Link against zlib (in apt-pkg/makefile) and add zlib build dependency.
- [ABI BREAK] This adds a new private member to FileFd, but its
initialization is in the public header file.
* configure.in:
- Check for zlib library and headers.
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc, apt-pkg/deb/debindexfile.cc,
apt-pkg/deb/debrecords.cc, apt-pkg/deb/debsrcrecords.h,
cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
- Open Packages, Sources, and Translations indexes in "ReadOnlyGzip" mode.
* apt-pkg/deb/debindexfile.cc:
- If we do not find uncompressed package/source/translation indexes, look
for gzip compressed ones.
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- If the Acquire::GzipIndexes option is true and we download a gzipped
index file, keep it as it is (and rename to .gz) instead of
uncompressing it.
* doc/apt.conf.5.xml:
- Document the new Acquire::GzipIndexes option.
* doc/po/apt-doc.pot, doc/po/de.po:
- German translation of new Acquire::GzipIndexes option.
* Add test/test-indexes.sh:
- Test behaviour of index retrieval and usage, in particular with
uncompressed and gzip compressed indexes.
* methods/gzip.cc: With FileFd now being able to read gzipped files, there
is no need for the gzip method any more to spawn an external gzip process.
Rewrite it to use FileFd directly, which makes the code a lot simpler, and
also using less memory and overhead.

- remove constness of va_list parameter to fix build on amd64 and co
Thanks Eric Valette! (Closes: #588610)

will be tried twice e.g. in an "apt-get update" run and every other piece
of code closing the FileFd manual before the destructor will do it again.
|
|
- add and document APT::Cache-{Start,Grow,Limit} options for mmap control
|
|
- make the used MMap moveable (and therefore dynamic resizeable) by
applying (some) mad pointer magic (Closes: #195018)
|
|
Drop the ".gz" extension check in FileFd::Open() in ReadOnlyGzip mode, to not
depend on a particular file extension. This allows rewriting the gzip method
using internal decompression (on ".decomp" files).
This requires a zlib bug workaround in FileFd::Close(): When opening an empty
file with gzdopen(), gzclose() fails with Z_BUF_ERROR. Do not count this as a
failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make FileFd replace files atomically in WriteTemp mode (for cache, etc).
|
|
never segfault it still tend to do it so better show it directly
|
|
- show notice about ignored file instead of being always silent
- add a Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently list option to control the notice
*
|
|
* apt-pkg/contrib/configuration.{cc,h}:
- add a wrapper to match strings against configurable regex patterns
|
|
|
|
- complete rewrite but use the same API
- add NOTICE and DEBUG as new types of a message
|
|
expects the compressed contents to stay (such as the copy backend, or when using file:// repositories. Instead, introduce a new ReadOnlyGzip mode and use that where needed
|
|
|
|
- Add support for transparent reading of gzipped files.
- Link against zlib (in apt-pkg/makefile) and add zlib build dependency.

branch to prevent replay attacks better, thanks to Thomas Viehmann
for the initial patch! (Closes: #499897)
* doc/apt.conf.5.xml:
- document the new Valid-Until related options
* apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.cc:
- split StrToTime() into HTTP1.1 and FTP date parser methods and
use strptime() instead of some self-made scanf mangling
- use the portable timegm shown in his manpage instead of a strange
looking code copycat from wget
* ftparchive/writer.cc:
- add ValidTime option to generate a Valid-Until header in Release file

|
|
- fix segfault in SaveInConfig caused by writing over char[] sizes
|
|
- clarify "MMap reached size limit" error message, thanks Ivan Masár!
|
|
- add a class WeakPointable which allows one to register weak pointers to
an object which will be set to NULL when the object is deallocated.
* [ABI break] apt-pkg/acquire{-worker,-item,}.h:
- subclass pkgAcquire::{Worker,Item,ItemDesc} from WeakPointable.
|
|
- error out if #clear directive has no argument
|
|
- add a parent-guarded "mkdir -p" as CreateDirectory()
* apt-pkg/acquire.{cc,h}:
- add a delayed constructor with Setup() for success reporting
- check for and create directories in Setup if needed instead of
error out unfriendly in the Constructor (Closes: #523920, #525783)
- optional handle a lock file in Setup()
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- remove the lock file handling and let Acquire take care of it instead
|
|

|
Thanks to Jean-Baptiste Lallement for spotting and fixing it!
* apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.cc:
- always escape '%' (LP: #130289) (Closes: #500560)
- unescape '%' sequence only if followed by 2 hex digit
- username/password are urlencoded in proxy string (RFC 3986)

This sounds like a premature optimization and since Mr. Knuth we all
know that they are the root of all evil - but, and here it starts to be
interesting: As the tolower_ascii method is by far the most called
method we have (~60 Mio. times) and as we compare only strings containing
ascii characters (package names, configuration options) using our own
method reduces execution time of APT by 4% plus it avoids that the
locale settings can influence us.

but we support the usage of the new ABI so libapt users
can start to prepare for MultiArch (Closes: #536029)
|
|
- if available store the Commandline in the history
* apt-pkg/contrib/cmndline.cc:
- save Commandline in Commandline::AsString for logging
|
|
- add char[] fallback for filesystems without shared writable
mmap() like JFFS2. Thanks to Marius Vollmer for writing
and to Loïc Minier for pointing to the patch! (Closes: #314334)

- this writes a /var/log/apt/history tagfile that contains details
from the transaction (complements term.log)
* methods/http.cc:
- add cache-control headers even if no cache is given to allow
adding options for intercepting proxies
- add Acquire::http::ProxyAutoDetect configuration that
can be used to call a external helper to figure out the
proxy configuration and return it to apt via stdout
(this is a step towards WPAD and zeroconf/avahi support)
* abicheck/
- add new abitest tester using the ABI Compliance Checker from
http://ispras.linuxfoundation.org/index.php/ABI_compliance_checker
* Change the package index Info methods to allow apt-cache policy to be
useful when using several different archives on the same host.
