2013-08-08specific pins below 1000 cause downgradesDavid Kalnischkies
We start your quest by using the version of a package applying to a specific pin, but that version could very well be below the current version, which causes APT to suggest a downgrade even if it is advertised that it never does this below 1000. Its of course questionable what use a specific pin on a package has which has a newer version already installed, but reacting with the suggestion of a downgrade is really not appropriated (even if its kinda likely that this is actually the intend the user has – it could just as well be an outdated pin) and as pinning is complicated enough we should atleast do what is described in the manpage. So we look out for the specific pin and if we haven't seen it at the moment we see the installed version, we ignore the specific pin. Closes: 543966
2012-10-13* apt-pkg/policy.cc:David Kalnischkies
- match pins with(out) an architecture as we do on the commandline (partly fixing #687255, b= support has to wait for jessie)

2011-10-04* apt-pkg/policy.cc:David Kalnischkies

2011-08-11cppcheck complains about some possible speed improvements which could beDavid Kalnischkies
done on the mirco-optimazation level, so lets fix them: (performance) Possible inefficient checking for emptiness. (performance) Prefer prefix ++/-- operators for non-primitive types.
2011-07-28* merged latest fixes from debian-sidMichael Vogt
* apt-pkg/contrib/sha1.cc: - fix illegally casts of on-stack buffer to a type requiring more alignment than it has resulting in segfaults on sparc (Closes: #634696) * apt-pkg/contrib/cdromutl.cc: - fix escape problem when looking for the mounted devices * apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.{h,cc}, test/libapt/strutil_test.cc: - add new DeEscapeString() similar to DeQuoteString but unescape character escapes like \0XX and \xXX (plus added test) * refresh po/* * cmdline/apt-get.cc: - fix missing download progress in apt-get download - do not require unused partial dirs in 'source' (Closes: #633510) - buildconflicts effect all architectures - implement MultiarchCross for build-dep and source (Closes: #632221) * cmdline/apt-key: - use a tmpfile instead of /etc/apt/secring.gpg (Closes: #632596) * debian/apt.postinst: - remove /etc/apt/secring.gpg if it is an empty file * doc/apt-cache.8.xml: - apply madison typofix from John Feuerstein, thanks! (Closes: #633455) * apt-pkg/policy.cc: - emit an error on unknown APT::Default-Release value (Closes: #407511) * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc: - ensure that native architecture is if not specified otherwise the first architecture in the Architectures vector * apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc: - Strip only :any and :native if MultiArch should be stripped as it is save to ignore them in non-MultiArch contexts but if the dependency is a specific architecture (and not the native) do not strip
2011-07-16* apt-pkg/policy.cc:David Kalnischkies
- emit an error on unknown APT::Default-Release value (Closes: #407511)
2011-06-30merged from debian-sidMichael Vogt
2011-06-30* doc/makefile:Michael Vogt
- create doxygen directory to avoid depending on magic (Closes: #628799) * cmdline/apt-key: - explicitly state that net-update is not supported if no url is set - require to be root for add, rm, update and net-update - clarify update vs. net-update in different distros (Closes: #632043) * debian/apt.symbols: - forgot 'mips' in the list for all architecture dependent symbols - comment out gcc-4.5 specific symbols as gcc-4.6 is now default - the symbol for PrintStatus() is architecture dependent * apt-pkg/policy.cc: - do not segfault in pinning if a package with this name doesn't exist. Thanks to Ferdinand Thommes for the report! - Defaults is a vector of Pin not of PkgPin - ensure that only the first specific stanza for a package is used - save all stanzas which had no effect in Unmatched - allow package:architecure in Package:
2011-05-17* Implement EDSP in libapt-pkg so that all front-ends whichDavid Kalnischkies
use the internal resolver can now be used also with external ones as the usage is hidden in between the old API * provide two edsp solvers in apt-utils: - 'dump' to quickly output a complete scenario and - 'apt' to use the internal as an external resolver
2011-04-21simplify the code for wildcard pinning a bitDavid Kalnischkies
2011-04-15* apt-pkg/policy.cc:Julian Andres Klode
- Allow pinning by glob() expressions, and regular expressions surrounded by slashes (the "/" character).
2011-03-30add a first round of stuff needed for talking between APT and solversDavid Kalnischkies
based on a very early draft for EDSP by Stefano APT can now write a scenario as well as load most stuff from it.
2011-03-08Remove the "pseudopackage" handling of Architecture: all packages forDavid Kalnischkies
Multi-Arch; instead, Arch: all packages only satisfy dependencies for the native arch, except where the Arch: all package is declared Multi-Arch: foreign. (Closes: #613584) This has the sideeffect that arch:all packages internally show up as coming from the native arch - so packages with the architecture "all" doesn't exist any longer in the pkgcache
2011-01-13* apt-pkg/cacheiterator.h:David Kalnischkies
- do not segfault if cache is not build (Closes: #254770)
2011-01-12* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:David Kalnischkies

2010-09-14* apt-pkg/policy.cc:David Kalnischkies
- support 100-pinning in Release file with ButAutomaticUpgrades as requested by the backports crew (Closes: #596097) * apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc: - overrule NotAutomatic in case of ButAutomaticUpgrades
2010-06-09* apt-pkg/policy.cc:David Kalnischkies
- get the candidate right for a not-installed pseudo package if his non-pseudo friend is installed
2010-05-06convert FileExists to DirectoryExists to check if the path is really aDavid Kalnischkies
directory (and to have a better method name in the error message if not)
