2015-06-15provide a public interface for acquiring changelogsDavid Kalnischkies
Provided is a specialized acquire item which given a version can figure out the correct URI to try by itself and if not provides an error message alongside with static methods to get just the URI it would try to download if it should just be displayed or similar such. The URI is constructed as follows: Release files can provide an URI template in the "Changelogs" field, otherwise we lookup a configuration item based on the "Label" or "Origin" of the Release file to get a (hopefully known) default value for now. This template should contain the string CHANGEPATH which is replaced with the information about the version we want the changelog for (e.g. main/a/apt/apt_1.1). This middleway was choosen as this path part was consistent over the three known implementations (+1 defunct), while the rest of the URI varies widely between them. The benefit of this construct is that it is now easy to get changelogs for Debian packages on Ubuntu and vice versa – even at the moment where the Changelogs field is present nowhere. Strictly better than what apt-get had before as it would even fail to get changelogs from security… Now it will notice that security identifies as Origin: Debian and pick this setting (assuming again that no Changelogs field exists). If on the other hand security would ship its changelogs in a different location we could set it via the Label option overruling Origin. Closes: 687147, 739854, 784027, 787190
2015-06-10store all targets data in IndexTarget structDavid Kalnischkies
We still need an API for the targets, so slowly prepare the IndexTargets to let them take this job. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-06-09configureable acquire targets to download additional filesDavid Kalnischkies
First pass at making the acquire system capable of downloading files based on configuration rather than hardcoded entries. It is now possible to instruct 'deb' and 'deb-src' sources.list lines to download more than just Packages/Translation-* and Sources files. Details on how to do that can be found in the included documentation file.
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.
2014-10-13Change default of Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories to "true"Michael Vogt
This change is made for backward compatiblity and should be reverted once jessie is out.
2014-10-13Fix backward compatiblity of the new pkgAcquireMethod::DropPrivsOrDie()Michael Vogt
Do not drop privileges in the methods when using a older version of libapt that does not support the chown magic in partial/ yet. To do this DropPrivileges() now will ignore a empty Apt::Sandbox::User. Cleanup all hardcoded _apt along the way.
2014-10-01Use Acquire::Allow{InsecureRepositories,DowngradeToInsecureRepositories}Michael Vogt
The configuration key Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories controls if apt allows loading of unsigned repositories at all. The configuration Acquire::AllowDowngradeToInsecureRepositories controls if a signed repository can ever become unsigned. This should really never be needed but we provide it to avoid having to mess around in /var/lib/apt/lists if there is a use-case for this (which I can't think of right now).

2013-12-01drop old /var/state to /var/lib transition artefactsDavid Kalnischkies
Regardless of when this transition was, it is so long ago that everyone who would still need this has a million other problems to deal with now so lets just drop this code.

2009-08-25"backport" the APT::Configuration class to apt-sidDavid Kalnischkies
We can use it to simplify the internal code to operate with Acquire::CompressionTypes group. This also made it possible to set this setting with the -o flag.
2009-08-12Add a Acquire::CompressionTypes config variable from there theDavid Kalnischkies
acquire-items choose which compression file they should (try first to) download to easily add new or change the order of the compression types. And because it is easy now we directly add builtin lzma support. The compression ratio is better than bzip2 but we prefer the later for now as no (official) mirror uses lzma, so this would only generate useless hits on the servers. Maybe sometime in the future lzma will be the default... [apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc] - use configsettings for dynamic compression type use and order. Based on a patch by Jyrki Muukkonen, thanks! (LP: #71746) [apt-pkg/init.cc] - add default configuration for compression types and add lzma support. Order is now bzip2, lzma, gzip, none (Closes: #510526) [ftparchive/writer.cc] - add lzma support also here, patch for this (and inspiration for the one above) by Robert Millan, thanks!
