A version belongs to a section and has hence a section member of its
own. A package on the other hand can have multiple versions from
different sections. This was "solved" by using the section which was
parsed first as order of sources.list defines, but that is obviously a
horribly unpredictable thing.
We therefore directly remove this struct member to free some space and
mark the access method as deprecated, which is told to return the
section of the 'newest' known version, which is at least predictable,
but possible not what it returned before – but nobody knows.
Users are way better of with the Section() as returned by the version
they are dealing with. It is likely the same for all versions of a
package, but in the few cases it isn't, it is important (like packages
moving from main/* to contrib/* or into oldlibs …).

In commit 21b3eac8 I promoted the check for installable dependencies to
a pre-install check, which also reverts to a known good candidate (the
installed version) if it fails. This revert was done even for user
requested candidate switches which disabled our Broken detection so that
install requests which are impossible to satisfy do not fail anymore,
but print an (incomplete) solution proposal and then exit successfully.

Fix incorrect cast in pkgDepCache::Policy::GetCandidateVer()
Reported-By: clang -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer
|

In commit 446551c8 I changed MarkInstall to discard the candidate if the
candidate can't satisfy the dependency. This breaks interactive solvers
like aptitude which can change the candidate on-the-fly later.
In commit df77d8a5 I introduced this 'early' loop-breaking to begin with
which can't be that helpful for interactive solvers as well, but makes
perfect sense for non-interactives to stop them from exploring trees
which can't be satisfied, but it isn't perfect as ideally we would check
this before auto-installing the first dependency.
This commit therefore moves the loop into its own IsInstallOk hook so
that frontends can override this check if they want to and in exchange
removes the loop-breaking from MarkInstall itself and does it before any
dependency is installed.

Hooked checks could be influenced by AutoInst as a lot can happen
between a call without and one with this bit set. The real cache-hit
check is above this call already. Individual hooked checks can then
inspect the state if they want to cache. Calling them multiple times
shouldn't be a problem either way.

Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems
I have with high levels of parallel jobs.

If a (Pre-)Depends can't be satisfied there is no point in keeping the
candidate as is as it is impossible to find a solution for it, so we can
just as well reset the candidate to the currently installed version.
We avoid trying to install this impossible candidate later on this way.

When checking for negative dependencies in MarkInstall() ensure that
only dependencies that are relevant (i.e. getting installed) are
checked.

We can't remove packages which are held back by the user with a hold, so
marking them (or its dependencies) as garbage will lead our autoremover
into madness – and given that the package is important enough that the
user has held it back it can't be garbage (at least at the moment), so
even if a front-end wants to use the info just for information display
its a good idea to not consider it garbage for them.

The rational from the buglog:
> The problem here is that the Priority field in one of the Packages files
> is incorrect due to a mishap with reprepro configuration, […] the
> amd64 version is Priority: standard but the arm64 version is Priority:
> optional (and has a stray "optional: interpreters" field).
> […]
> However, Priority is a rather weak property of a package because it's
> typically applied via overrides, and it's easy for maintainers of
> third-party repositories to misconfigure them so that overrides aren't
> applied correctly. It shouldn't be ranked ahead of choosing packages
> from the native architecture. In this case, I have no user-mode
> emulation for arm64 set up, so choosing m4:arm64 simply won't work.
This effectly makes the priority the least interesting data point in
chosing a provider, which is in line with the other checks we have
already order above priority in the past and also has a certain appeal by
the soft irony it provides.

Multi-Arch: same packages can be co-installed, but need to have the same
version for all installed packages (aka "siblings"). Otherwise the
unsynced versions will fight against each other and the auto-install as
wel as the problem resolver will later have to decide between holding the
packages or to remove one of the siblings (usually a foreign) taking a
bunch of packages (like the entire foreign setup) with them.
The idea here is now to be more pro-active: MarkInstall will fail for
a package if the siblings aren't synced, so we don't allow a situation
in which a resolver has to decide if to hold or to remove-upgrade under
the assumption that the remove-upgrade decision is always wrong and
doesn't deserve to be explored (expect valid out-of-syncs of course).
Thats a pretty bold move to take for a library which is used by
different solvers so this check is done in IsInstallOk and can be
overridden if front-ends want to.

- don't call MarkInstall with the FromUser flag set for packages
which are dependencies of APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections matchers

M-A:same packages on the real package name as self-conflicts

- clearly separate 'positive' and 'negative' dependencies and

treat Conflicts differently compared to Breaks here
|
|
- No Immediate configuration (see above)
- Not automatically installed during dist-upgrade

silbings for reinstallation as well (LP: #859188)

|
- implicit conflicts (for multiarch) are supposed to conflict
only with real packages, not with virtual providers
|
|
- prefer native providers over foreigns even if the chain is foreign
The code preferred real over virtual packages and based on priorities.
This is changed in so far that a real package from any arch is preferred
over any virtual provider and if priorities doesn't help in choosing the
best provider we choose it based on architectures

use the internal resolver can now be used also with external

* provide two edsp solvers in apt-utils:

- 'apt' to use the internal as an external resolver
