2014-09-24Use _apt as our unprivileged user nameJulian Andres Klode
Some people want to standardize on it, and BSDs do it too, so let's do the same. Reported-by: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
2014-09-24DropPriv: Really call seteuid and not setuid, and add more checksJulian Andres Klode
The only thing we are missing is non-portable saved ids support.
2014-09-24Drop Privileges to "Debian-apt" in most acquire methodsMichael Vogt
Add a new "Debian-apt" user that owns the /var/lib/apt/lists and /var/cache/apt/archive directories. The methods http, https, ftp, gpgv, gzip switch to this user when they start. Thanks to Julian and "ioerror" and tors "switch_id()" code.

2014-09-21Ensure that iTFRewritePackageOrder is "MD5sum" to match apt-ftparchiveMichael Vogt
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).
2014-09-21Fix regression for cdrom: sources from latest security updateMichael Vogt
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.

2014-09-17Fix regression for file:/// uris from CVE-2014-0487Michael Vogt
Do not run ReverifyAfterIMS() for local file URIs as this will causes apt to mess around in the file:/// uri space. This is wrong in itself, but it will also cause a incorrect verification failure when the archive and the lists directory are on different partitions as rename().
2014-09-16SECURITY UPDATE for CVE-2014-{0488,0487,0489}Michael Vogt
incorrect invalidating of unauthenticated data (CVE-2014-0488) incorect verification of 304 reply (CVE-2014-0487) incorrect verification of Acquire::Gzip indexes (CVE-2014-0489)
2014-09-12Allow override of Proxy-Auto-Detect by the users configurationMichael Vogt
Only run the Proxy-Auto-Detect code if there is not already a host specific configuration. Closes: 759264
2014-09-08rework PTY magic to fix stair-stepping on kfreebsdDavid Kalnischkies
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 fails causing the output to be stair-stepped from now on. 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. Closes: 759684
2014-09-08fix progress report for upgrade and reinstallDavid Kalnischkies
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.

No reason in and of by itself at the moment, but prepares for the goal of having 'apt search' and 'apt-cache search' using the same code now that they at least support the same stuff. The 'apt' code is just a multitude slower at the moment… Git-Dch: Ignore

2014-09-05Ensure we have a Policy in CacheFile.BuildDepCache()Michael Vogt
This partly reverts d059cc2 and fixes bug #753297 in a more general way by ensuring that CacheFile.BuildDepCache() builds a pkgPolicy if there isn't one already.
2014-09-02* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:Michael Vogt
- update string matching for dpkg I/O errors. (LP: #1363257) - properly parse the dpkg status line so that package name is properly set and an apport report is created. Thanks to Anders Kaseorg for the patch. (LP: #1353171)
2014-09-02Make Proxy-Auto-Detect check for each hostMichael Vogt
When doing Acquire::http{,s}::Proxy-Auto-Detect, run the auto-detect command for each host instead of only once. This should make using "proxy" from libproxy-tools feasible which can then be used for PAC style or other proxy configurations. Closes: #759264
2014-08-29initialize iPolicyBrokenCount in DepCache::UpdateWarren He
All other counters are correctly initialized here, expect this one. The practical effect is low as in apt we usually just do "!= 0" checks, but only correct counters are good counters. Closes: 758397
2014-08-26support versioned provides as implemented by dpkgDavid Kalnischkies
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. Closes: 758153

2014-07-29Fix SmartConfigure to ignore ordering of packages that are already validMichael Vogt
With the change of SmartConfigure() in git commit 42d51f the ordering code was trying to re-order dependencies, even when at this point in time this was not needed. Now it will first check all targets of the given dependency and only if there is not a good one try to reorder and unpack/configure as needed. Closes: LP: #1347721
2014-07-17apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc: make pkgAcqDiffIndex more uniformMichael Vogt
2014-07-16Do not crash for apt-get install /dev/nullMichael Vogt
Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the bugreport. Closes: #754904
2014-07-16StringToBool: only act if the entire string is consumed by strtol()Michael Vogt
StringToBool uses strtol() internally to check if the argument is a number. This function stops when it does not find any more numbers. So a string like "0ad" (which is a valid packagename) is interpreted as a "0". The code now checks that the entire string is consumed not just a part of it. Thanks to Johannes Schauer for raising this issue.

CLoses: #752327
2014-07-08Only allow "apt-get build-dep path" when path starts with ./ or /Michael Vogt
This avoid the subtle problem that someone might have a directory with the same package name as the build-depends he/she is trying to fetch. Also print a note that the specific file/dir is used.

2014-07-07handle moved mmap after UniqFindTagWrite callDavid Kalnischkies
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. Closes: #753941

2014-06-18correct 'apt-cache stats' to include moreDavid Kalnischkies
It still doesn't reflect the size the cache has on the disk compared to what is given as total size (90 vs 103 MB), but by counting all structs in we are at least a bit closer to the reality. Git-Dch: ignore
2014-06-18remove the Section member from package structDavid Kalnischkies
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. We therefore directly remove this struct member to free some space and mark the access method as deprecated, which is told to return the section of the 'newest' known version, which is at least predictable, but possible not what it returned before – but nobody knows. 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 …).
2014-06-18cleanup datatypes mix used in binary cacheDavid Kalnischkies
We had a wild mixture of (unsigned) int, long and long long here without much sense, so this commit adds a few typedefs to get some sense in the typesystem and ensures that a ID isn't sometimes computed as int, stored as long and compared with a long long… as this could potentially bite us later on as the size of the archive only increases over time.
2014-06-18increase hashtable size for packages/groups by factor 5David Kalnischkies
It also makes the size configureable, so it can be adapted in the future without the need for an abi break - and even by users… The increase was long overdue as it gives a >10% decrease in runtime of e.g. 'apt-get check -s'. Some (useless) benchmark with 69933 groups and 187796 packages without a pre-built cache: time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=1 → 20m time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=1000 → 6,41s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=2000 → 5,64s (old) time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=3000 → 5,30s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=5000 → 5,08s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=6000 → 5,05s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=7000 → 5,02s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=8000 → 5,00s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=9000 → 4,98s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=10000 → 4,96s (new) time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=15000 → 4,90s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=20000 → 4,86s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=30000 → 4,77s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=40000 → 4,74s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=50000 → 4,73s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=60000 → 4,71s The gap increases further for operations which have more package lookups. Factor 5 was chosen as higher values do not provide any really significant timing advantage anymore compared to the memory increase in my testing and there is always the possibility to increase it now if that changes. (also most users will not have 3 releases and 4 architectures in the cache, so theirs will be much smaller and faster).

2014-06-18fix SubstVar to be usable as a replace_all methodDavid Kalnischkies
The name suggests that it is supposed to substitute a variable with a value, but we tend to use it in a more liberal replace_all() fashion, but this breaks if either of the parameters is empty or more importantly if two "variable" occurrences follow each other directly.
2014-06-18don't send pkg from an unknown architecture via EDSPDavid Kalnischkies
APT's cache can include packages from architectures dpkg has no knowledge about and can therefore not be installed for e.g. to allow easy lookups. There is no point in telling external solvers about them though and some of them might even be really talkative about ignoring them if we do.
