If pkgAcqChangelog is told to acquire the changelog for a version it
will check first if this version is installed on the disk and if so will
use the local changelog in /usr/share/doc (possibily/likely gz
compressed) instead of downloading the file from the web.
An option is provided to disable this, which is enabled by default for
the Ubuntu vendor as they truncate the local changelogs – and for apts
--print-uris action.
|
|
This should make it more obvious that CHANGEPATH is a placeholder which
apt will replace with a package specific path rather than a string
constant.

'files' is a bit too generic as a name for a command usually only used
programmatically (if at all) by developers, so instead of "wasting" this
generic name for this we use "indextargets" which is actually the name
of the datastructure the displayed data is stored in.
Along with this rename the config options are renamed accordingly.
|
|
History suggests that this comes from an earlier apt-secure
implementation, but never really became a thing, totally unused and
marked as deprecated for "ages" now. Especially as it did nothing even
if it would have been used (libapt itself didn't use it at all).
|
|
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.

We still need an API for the targets, so slowly prepare the IndexTargets
to let them take this job.

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.
|
|
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.
|
|
This change is made for backward compatiblity and should be reverted
once jessie is out.
|
|
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.
|
|
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).

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

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.

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.
|

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!
