Dynamically allocate KillList in order to avoid an overflow when
more than 100 elements would be written to it.
This happened while playing around with the status file from
Bug#701069 on a modern system.

This could allow an attacker to mark a package as installed in a
remote package index, as long as the package was not listed in
the dpkg status file.
This way, an attacker could force the installation of a package
during a dist-upgrade, by providing two packages in an index,
an older marked as installed, and a newer - apt would "upgrade"
to the newer version.

In 50ef3344c3afaaf9943142906b2f976a0337d264 (and similar for other
branches), while 'fixing' the edgecase of a package being in multiple
sections (e.g. moved from libs to oldlibs in newer releases) I
accidently broke the feature itself completely by operating on the
package itself and no longer on its dependencies…
The behaviour isn't ideal in multiple ways, which we are hopefully able
to fix with new ideas as mentioned in the buglog, but until then the
functionality of this "hack" should be restored.

The siblings of this message are all guarded as debug messages, just this
one had it missing and subsequently causes display issues if triggered,
which, given that clog is an alias for cerr, end up on stderr and
therefore are reported as problems by tools only showing the stderr
like our own cron script.

The fix for #777760 causes packages of foreign (and the native)
architectures, to be created correctly, but invalidates (like the
previously existing, but policy-forbidden architecture-less packages
we had to support for some upgrade scenarios) the assumption that the
first (and only) package in the cache for a single architecture system
must be the package for the native architecture (as, where should the
other architectures come from, right? Wrong.).
Depending on the order of parsing sources more or less packages can be
effected by this. The effects are strange (for apt it mostly effects
simulation/debug output, but also apt-mark on these specific packages),
which complicates debugging, but relatively harmless if understood as
most actions do not need direct named access to packages.
The problem is fixed by removing the single-arch special casing in the
paths who had them (Cache.FindPkg), so they use the same code as
multi-arch systems, which use them as a wrapper for Grp.FindPkg.
Note that single-arch system code was using Grp.FindPkg before as well
if a Grp structure was handily available, so we don't introduce new
untested code here: We remove more brittle special cases which are less
tested instead (this was planed to be done for Stretch anyhow).
Note further that the method with the assumption itself isn't fixed. As
it is a private method I opted for declaring it deprecated instead and
remove all its call positions. As it is private no-one can call this
method legally (thanks to how c++ works by default its still an exported
symbol through) and fixing it basically means reimplementing code we
already have in Grp.FindPkg.
Removing rather than fixing seems hence like a good solution.

On single-arch the parsing was creating groupnames like 'apt:amd64' even
through it should be 'apt' and a package in it belonging to architecture
amd64. The result for foreign architectures was as expected: The
dependency isn't satisfiable, but for native architecture it means the
wrong package (ala apt:amd64:amd64) is linked so this is also not
satisfiable, which is very much not expected.
No longer excluding single-arch from this codepath allows the generation
of the correct links, which still link to non-exisiting packages for
foreign dependencies, but natives link to the expected native package
just as if no architecture was given.
For negative arch-specific dependencies ala Conflicts this matter was
worse as apt will believe there isn't a Conflict to resolve, tricking it
into calculating a solution dpkg will refuse.
Architecture specific positive dependencies are rare in jessie – the
only one in amd64 main is foreign –, negative dependencies do not even
exist. Neither class has a native specimen, so no package in jessie is
effected by this bug, but it might be interesting for stretch upgrades.
This also means the regression potential is very low.
Closes: 777760

g++-5 generates a slightly broken libapt which doesn't split
architecture configurations correctly resulting in e.g. Packages files
requested for the bogus architecture 'amd64,i386' instead of for amd64
and i386.
The reason is an incorrectly applied attribute marking the function as
const, while functions with pointer arguments are not allowed to be
declared as such (note that char& is a char* in disguise). Demoting the
attribute to pure fixes this issue – better would be dropping the & from
char but that is an API change…
Neither earlier g++ versions nor clang use this attribute to generate
broken code, so we don't need a rebuild of dependencies or anything and
g++-5 isn't even included in jessie, but the effect is so strange and
apt popular enough to consider avoiding this problem anyhow.

libapt can be configured to write various bits of information to a file
creating a report via apport. This is disabled by default in Debian and
apport residing only in /experimental so far, but Ubuntu and other
derivatives have this (in some versions) enabled by default and there is
no regression potentially here.
The crash is caused by a mismatch of operations vs. strings for
operations, so adding the missing strings for these operations solves
the problem.

In /experimental this is resolved by deprecating Mode and moving to a
new std::string, but that breaks ABI of course, so that was out of
question. We can't change to a malloc/free style c-string either as
Mode is public and hence a library user could be setting this as well.
std::string implementors actually helped us out here with copy-on-write
which means that while the variable "obviously" runs out of scope here,
in reality you get the correct result as the string we work with here
comes from the configuration in which it is still valid. Such a
dependency on magic is bad of course, but its still interesting that
only python3 seems to have an issue with it…
With some silly explicit if-else assigning we can sidestep this issue
while retaining the same output for 99.99% of all users (= noone
actually configures additional compression algorithms which are also
provided by repositories…), but even for these 0.01% its just a small
change in the display as Mode can not be used for anything else.
Example: apt/aptitude uses it in its 'update' implementations in the
one-line progress at the bottom for specific items.

Commit 9ec748ff103840c4c65471ca00d3b72984131ce4 from Feb 23 last year
adds a version check after 8daf68e366fa9fa2794ae667f51562663856237c
added 8 days earlier negative points for breaks/conflicts with the
intended that only dependencies which are satisfied propagate points
(aka: old conflicts do not).
The implementation was needlessly complex and flawed through preventing
positive dependencies from gaining points like they did before these
commits making library transitions harder instead of simpler. It worked
out anyhow most of the time out of pure 'luck' (and other ways of
gaining points) or got miss attributed to being a temporary hick-up.

Commit 299aea924ccef428219ed6f1a026c122678429e6 fixes the problem of
not logging terminal in case stdin & stdout are not a terminal. The
problem is that we are then trying to pass-through stdin content by
reading from the apt-process stdin and writing it to the stdin of the
child (dpkg), which works great for users who can control themselves,
but pipes and co are a bit less forgiving causing us to pass everything
to the first child process, which if the sending part of the pipe is
e.g. 'yes' we will never see the end of it (as the pipe is full at some
point and further writing blocks).
There is a simple solution for that of course: If stdin isn't a terminal,
we us the apt-process stdin as stdin for the child directly (We don't do
this if it is a terminal to be able to save the typed input in the log).

dpkg checks now for dependencies before running triggers, so that
packages can now end up in trigger states (especially those we are not
touching at all with our calls) after apt is done running.
The solution to this is trivial: Just tell dpkg to configure everything
after we have (supposely) configured everything already. In the worst
case this means dpkg will have to run a bunch of triggers, usually it
will just do nothing though.
The code to make this happen was already available, so we just flip a
config option here to cause it to be run. This way we can keep
pretending that triggers are an implementation detail of dpkg.
--triggers-only would supposely work as well, but --configure is more
robust in regards to future changes to dpkg and something we will
hopefully make use of in future versions anyway (as it was planed at the
time this and related options were implemented).
Note that dpkg currently has a workaround implemented to allow upgrades
to jessie to be clean, so that the test works before and after. Also
note that test (compared to the one in the bug) drops the await test as
its is considered a loop by dpkg now.

If we have no controlling terminal opening a terminal will make this
terminal our controller, which is a serious problem if this happens to
be the pseudo terminal we created to run dpkg in as we will close this
terminal at the end hanging ourself up in the process…
The offending open is the one we do to have at least one slave fd open
all the time, but for good measure, we apply the flag also to the slave
fd opening in the child process as we set the controlling terminal
explicitely here.
This is a regression from 150bdc9ca5d656f9fba94d37c5f4f183b02bd746 with
the slight twist that this usecase was silently broken before in that it
wasn't logging the output in term.log (as a pseudo terminal wasn't
created).

We run dpkg on its own pty, so we can log its output and have our own
output around it (like the progress bar), while also allowing debconf
and configfile prompts to happen.
In commit 223ae57d468fdcac451209a095047a07a5698212 we changed to
constantly reopening the slave for kfreebsd. This has the sideeffect
though that in some cases slave and master will lose their connection on
linux, so that no output is passed along anymore. We fix this by having
always an fd referencing the slave open (linux), but we don't use it
(kfreebsd).
Failing to get our PTY up and running has many (bad) consequences
including (not limited to, nor all at ones or in any case) garbled ouput,
no output, no logging, a (partial) mixture of the previous items, …
This commit is therefore also reshuffling quiet a bit of the creation
code to get especially the output part up and running on linux and the
logging for kfreebsd.
Note that the testcase tries to cover some cases, but this is an
interactivity issue so only interactive usage can really be a good test.

The fd moves out of scope here anyway, so we should close it properly
instead of leaking it which will tickle down to dpkg maintainer scripts.

This used to work before we implemented a stricter commandline parser
and e.g. the dd-schroot-cmd command constructs commandlines like this.

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.
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 …).
Backport of 7a66977 which actually instantly removes the member.

Collect all hashes we can get from the source record and put them into a
HashStringList so that 'apt-get source' can use it instead of using
always the MD5sum.
We therefore also deprecate the MD5 struct member in favor of the list.
While at it, the parsing of the Files is enhanced so that records which
miss "Files" (aka MD5 checksums) are still searched for other checksums
as they include just as much data, just not with a nice and catchy name.
This is a cherry-pick of 1262d35 with some dirty tricks to preserve ABI.

APT supports more than just one HashString and even allows to enforce
the usage of a specific hash. This class is intended to help with
storage and passing around of the HashStrings.
The cherry-pick here the un-const-ification of HashType() compared to
f4c3850ea335545e297504941dc8c7a8f1c83358. The point of this commit is
adding infrastructure for the next one. All by itself, it just adds new
symbols.

Remove long obsolete (hold, hold-reinstreq, removal-failed) or just
wrong (post-inst-failed vs postinst-failed) values, that have been
autoconverted by dpkg at run-time to their new equivalents, so there
should not be any such instance in any recent system (removal-failed
since dpkg 1.1.4 in Apr 1996, hold and hold-reinstreq since dpkg
1.2.0 in May 1996). dpkg even stopped doing the mapping in 1.15.4
and 1.15.8 respectively.
At the same time sort the list in the same order as they appear in
the dpkg code.

The iTFRewritePackageOrder is used in indexcopy to copy and normalize
cdrom Packages files. This change will ensure that there is no
"normalization" that changes MD5sum -> MD5Sum which alters the hash
of the Packages file on disk (oh the irony).
|
|
Skip a reverify for cdrom: sources. The reverify step is actually
harmful here because the apt-cdrom add code uses the indexcopy.cc
which will "normalize" the Packages file from the cdrom when it
writes it to the local disk. This leads to changing the "MD5sum"
field (notice the lower case "s") on the cdrom Packages file to
a "MD5Sum" field on the local file in /var/lib/apt/lists. Which
of course alters the hash and makes apt fail to reverify the file.

Do not run ReverifyAfterIMS() for local file URIs as this will

A pty slave we have got from openpty can only be used for one dpkg
child, if we give it to a second child on kfreebsd setting TIOCSCTTY

By switching the code to creating a master and opening a new slave in
the child for each child we can fix this glitch, so that at least the
master remains stable.

APT treats upgrades like installs and dpkg is very similar in this, but
prints still a slightly different processing message indicating that it
is really an upgrade which we hadn't parsed so far, but this wasn't
really visible as we quickly moved on to a 'known' state.
More problematic was the reinstall case as apt hadn't recognized this
for the package name detection, so that reinstalls had no progress since
we introduced MultiArch.

APT supported versioned provides for a long while in an attempt to get
it working with rpm. While this support is old, we can be relatively
sure that it works as versioned provides are used internally to make
Multi-Arch:foreign work.
Previous versions of apt will print a warning indicating that the
versioned provides is ignored, so that something which "Provides: foo (=
2)" doesn't provide anything.
Note that dpkg does allow only a equals-relation in the provides line
as anything else is deemed too complex. apt doesn't support anything
else either and such a support would require potentially big changes.

StringToBool uses strtol() internally to check if the argument is

A call to UniqFindTagWrite can trigger the need for a bigger mmap, which
is usually done by moving it, but with this move all pointers into it
become invalid (and have to be remapped). The compiler calculates the
pointer before the execution of the call though, so it tries to store
the returned value at the old location, resulting in a segfault.
We solve this by use of a temprorary variable as we did in the other
instances of this problem before.

The name suggests that it is supposed to substitute a variable with a

but this breaks if either of the parameters is empty or more importantly
if two "variable" occurrences follow each other directly.
