2014-03-13propagate a negative score point along breaks/conflictsDavid Kalnischkies
versioned -dev packages like db and boost have the problem of no dependencies which would give them a competitive advantage against an older incarnation of the -dev package, so they tend to be kept back until the old version is removed from the archive, which, if the user has older releases in its sources can take a long time (or never happens). The newer version has a conflicts/breaks against the older one, but the older one hasn't against the newer, so by giving via the conflicts the older one a reduced score the newer one can win if there is no other reason to keep it. If both have a conflict against each other the scoring will cancel itself out, so no harm done. This gives "action" a slightly bigger edge in breaks/conflicts cases than before, but holding back isn't a really good solution anyway.

2014-02-20prepare re-enable fnmatch() once we have proper reportingMichael Vogt
2014-02-14disable fnmatch()Michael Vogt
The current PackageContainerInterface::FromString() will do a FromFnmatch() first and then FromRegEx(). This commit reverts that change to restore the old behavior to only look for RegEx and not glob-style pattern. The rational is that: a) currently a fnmatch() is misleadingly reported as a regex match to the user (Bug#738880) b) a fnmatch may match something different than a a RegEx so the change broke a published interface

2014-02-14simplify code some more to make reddit happyDavid Kalnischkies
Commit 6008b79adf1d7ea5607fab87a355d664c8725026 should have been guarded by "Git-Dch: Ignore", but it wasn't and I only noticed it with the Close message via deity thinking "hehe, I wonder if someone is gonna notice". Looks like someone did: hats off to reddit user itisOmegakai! Good to know that what I do isn't only monitored by goverments. :) As there is another instance of basically the same code we just factor out the code a bit and reuse, so its even cleaner and not only simpler.

2014-02-14allow http protocol to switch to httpsDavid Kalnischkies
switch protocols at random is a bad idea if e.g. http can switch to file, so we limit the possibilities to http to http and http to https. As very few people (less than 1% according to popcon) have https installed this likely changes nothing in terms of failure. The commit is adding a friendly hint which package needs to be installed though.
2014-02-12remove duplication in pkgCdrom::Add and ::IdentDavid Kalnischkies

2014-02-12apt-cdrom should succeed if any drive succeedsJohn Ogness
If there are multiple CD-ROM drives, `apt-cdrom add` will abort with an error if any of the drives do not contain a Debian CD which is against the documentation we have saying "a CD-ROM" and also scripts do not expect it this way. This patch modifies apt-cdrom to return success if any of the drives succeeded. If failures occur, apt-cdrom will still continue trying all the drives and report the last failure (if none of them succeeded). The 'ident' command was also changed to match the new 'add' behavior. Closes: 728153
2014-02-10always cleanup patchfiles at the end of rred callDavid Kalnischkies
With APT::Get::List-Cleanup disabled the ed-style patch files are lingering in the lists/ directory otherwise. That was kinda okay in the old none-client-merge as the filename was always the same so it was constantly overridden, but now with different names for client-merge quiet a few could pill up on the system and are used by the next call as it picks them up based on the filename.

2014-02-10simplify code to make compilers happyDavid Kalnischkies
Does the same as before, but is a bit simpler on the logic for humans as well as compilers. scan-build complained about it at least with: "Result of operation is garbage or undefined" Reported-By: scan-build

2014-02-06discard impossible candidates in MarkInstallDavid Kalnischkies
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. Closes: #735967
2014-02-04Fix multiarch package upgrade issueMichael Vogt
When checking for negative dependencies in MarkInstall() ensure that only dependencies that are relevant (i.e. getting installed) are checked.
2014-01-30restart debSrcRecordParsers only if neededDavid Kalnischkies
The offset variable in DebSrcRecordParser was not initialized which we now do and based on it do not trigger a restart if the parser was not used yet avoiding a needless rescan of the section. Detected while working on the previous commit e62aa1dd. Both commits act as a "fix" for the bug shown in the testcase of the commit – this one here would only hide it through.
2014-01-30pkgTagFile: if we have seen the end, do not try to see moreDavid Kalnischkies
Asking for more via Step() will notice that we are done with the file already and will result in a fail, which means we can't find the last sections anymore (which is especially painful if we haven't moved at all as in the testcase we haven't even looked at one of the sources leading to a strange behaviour) Reported-By: Niall Walsh <niallwalsh@users.berlios.de>

2014-01-15integrate Anthonys rred with POC for client-side mergeDavid Kalnischkies
Providing the benefits of both without the downsides :) (ABI breaks or external dependencies) For this Anthonys rred is equipped with: - magic-filename-pickup of patches rather than explicit messages - use of FileFd instead of FILE* to get on-the-fly uncompress of the gzip compressed pdiff patches The acquire code in turn stops checking for apt-file's helper as our own rred is now clever enough for our needs.
2014-01-15reenable unlimited pdiff files downloadDavid Kalnischkies
In 51fc6def77edfb1f429a48e5169519e9e05a759b we limited the amount of pdiff to be downloaded per index to 20. This was a compromise between not letting it go overboard (becoming even slower) and not using bandwidth needlessly. Now that with the POC the speed reason is gone it makes sense again to download as much files as we possible can via pdiff to save bandwidth (and possibly even time). It also avoids problems with the limit in cases we were we deal with a server merged archieve as this limit assumes a strict patch progression.
