2016-08-17default to Dir=/ in dpkg/status file finding magicDavid Kalnischkies
Seen in cme #833656 if Dir isn't set (yet) we end up later absoluting a path which was supposed to be absolute already, so if Dir is empty we assume it to be '/' instead. In practice this is a bug in the software using libapt, but for maxium compatibility lets explicitly set the default value here to be safe.

2016-07-19don't hardcode /var/lib/dpkg/status as dir::state::statusDavid Kalnischkies
Theoretically it should be enough to change the Dir setting and have apt pick the dpkg/status file from that. Also, it should be consistently effected by RootDir. Both wasn't really the case through, so a user had to explicitly set it too (or ignore it and have or not have expected sideeffects caused by it). This commit tries to guess better the location of the dpkg/status file by setting dir::state::status to a naive "../dpkg/status", just that this setting would be interpreted as relative to the CWD and not relative to the dir::state directory. Also, the status file isn't really relative to the state files apt has in /var/lib/apt/ as evident if we consider that apt/ could be a symlink to someplace else and "../dpkg" not effected by it, so what we do here is an explicit replace on apt/ – similar to how we create directories if it ends in apt/ – with dpkg/. As this is a change it has the potential to cause regressions in so far as the dpkg/status file of the "host" system is no longer used if you set a "chroot" system via the Dir setting – but that tends to be intended and causes people to painfully figure out that they had to set this explicitly before, so that it now works more in terms of how the other Dir settings work (aka "as expected"). If using the host status file is really intended it is in fact easier to set this explicitely compared to setting the new "magic" location explicitely.
2016-06-14don't use FindFile for external Dir::Bin commandsDavid Kalnischkies
We usually use absolute paths to specific the location of dpkg, apt-key and the like, but there is nothing wrong with using just the command name and instead let exec(3) make the lookup in PATH. We had a wild mixture before, so opting for the more accepting option out of the two seems about right especially as it makes no difference in the default case as apt uses absolute paths.
2015-12-27Convert most callers of isspace() to isspace_ascii()Julian Andres Klode
This converts all callers that read machine-generated data, callers that might work with user input are not converted.
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.

2015-11-04implement 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.
2015-08-10make all d-pointer * const pointersDavid Kalnischkies
Doing this disables the implicit copy assignment operator (among others) which would cause hovac if used on the classes as it would just copy the pointer, not the data the d-pointer points to. For most of the classes we don't need a copy assignment operator anyway and in many classes it was broken before as many contain a pointer of some sort. Only for our Cacheset Container interfaces we define an explicit copy assignment operator which could later be implemented to copy the data from one d-pointer to the other if we need it. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-08mark internal interfaces as hiddenDavid Kalnischkies
We have a bunch of classes which are of no use for the outside world, but were still exported and so needed to preserve ABI/API. Marking them as hidden to not export them any longer is a big API break in theory, but in practice nobody is using them – as if they would its a bug.

2010-06-09* merge the remaining Ubuntu change:Michael Vogt
- on gpg verification failure warn and restore the last known good state - on failure display the IP of the server (useful for servers that use round robin DNS) - support Original-Maintainer in RewritePackageOrder - enable cdrom autodetection via libudev by default - show messsage about Vcs in use when apt-get source is run for packages maintained in a Vcs - better support transitional packages with mark auto-installed. when the transitional package is in "oldlibs" the new package is not marked auto installed (same is true for section metapackages) - provide new "deb mirror://archive.foo/mirrors.list sid main" method expects a list of mirrors (generated on the server e.g. via geoip) and will use that, including cycle on failure - write apport crash file on package failure (disabled by default on debian until apport is available) - support mirror failure reporting (disabled by default on debian)
