Sources are usually defined in sources.list (and co) and are pretty
stable, but once in a while a frontend might want to add an additional
"source" like a local .deb file to install this package (No support for
'real' sources being added this way as this is a multistep process).
We had a hack in place to allow apt-get and apt to pull this of for a
short while now, but other frontends are either left in the cold by this
and/or the code for it looks dirty with FIXMEs plastering it and has on
top of this also some problems (like including these 'volatile' sources
in the srcpkgcache.bin file).
So the biggest part in this commit is actually the rewrite of the cache
generation as it is now potentially a three step process. The biggest
problem with adding support now through is that this makes a bunch of
previously mostly unusable by externs and therefore hidden classes
public, so a bit of further tuneing on this now public API is in order…

Before MultiArch implicits weren't a thing, so they were hidden by
default by definition. Adding them for MultiArch solved many problems,
but having no reliable way of detecting which dependency (and provides)
is implicit or not causes problems everytime we want to output
dependencies without confusing our observers with unneeded
implementation details.
The really notworthy point here is actually that we keep now a better
record of how a dependency came to be so that we can later reason about
it more easily, but that is hidden so deep down in the library internals
that change is more the problems it solves than the change itself.

We aren't and we will not be really compatible again with the previous
stable abi, so lets drop these markers (which never made it into a
released version) for good as they have outlived their intend already.

With a bit of trickery and the Curiously recurring template pattern we
can free us from our use of virtual in the iterators were it is unneeded
bloat as we never deal with pointers to iterators and similar such.

Further abstracting our new ShowList allows to use it for containers of
strings as well giving us the option to implement an or-groups display
for the recommends and suggests lists which is a nice trick given that
it also helps with migrating the last remaining other cases of old
ShowList.

Housekeeping. This used to be embedded in apt-get directly, then moved
to into our (then new) private lib and now header and code get a proper
separation.

apt-get is displaying various lists of package names, which until now it
was building as a string before passing it to ShowList, which inserted
linebreaks at fitting points and showed a title if needed, but it never
really understood what it was working with. With the help of C++11 the
new generic knows not only what it works with, but generates the list on
the fly rather than asking for it and potentially discarding parts of
the input (= the non-default verbose display). It also doubles as a test
for how usable the CacheSets are with C++11.
(Not all callers are adapted yet.)

'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.

Six years ago in 55a5a46c235a30bf024fb2301066553953701cc5 apt-get
learned to disable locking if run as normal user and show a message.
Helmut Grohne rightly suggests on IRC now that there isn't much point in
getting the locks for root either as the output isn't in any way more
authoritive than without locking given that after this call the lock is
freed and any action can sneak in before we make the next call. So we
exchange no benefit for the disavantage of blocking real calls. This can
be especially confusing with the aliases --no-act and --just-print.
We do not print the message we print for users through as the non-root
users can be confronted with a lot more difference via unreadable files.

C++11 adds the 'override' specifier to mark that a method is overriding
a base class method and error out if not. We hide it in the APT_OVERRIDE
macro to ensure that we keep compiling in pre-c++11 standards.

The "problem" is mostly in the erase() definitions as they slightly
conflict and in pre-c++11 are not uniformly in different containers.
By differenciating based on the standard we can provide erase() methods
for both standards – and as the method is in a template and inline we
don't need to worry about symbols here.
The rest is adding wrappings for the new forward_list and unordered_set
containers and correcting our iterators to use the same trait as the
iterator they are wrapping instead of having all of them be simple
forward iterators. This allows the use of specialized algorithms which
are picked based on iterator_traits and implementing them all is simple
to do as we can declare all methods easily and only if they are called
they will generate errors (if the underlying iterator doesn't support
these).

It shouldn't be too common, but sometimes people have multiple mirrors
in the sources or otherwise repositories with the same content. Now that
we gracefully can handle multiple requests to the same URI, we can also
fold multiple requests with the same expected hashes into one. Note that
this isn't trying to find oppertunities for merging, but just merges if
it happens to encounter the oppertunity for it.
This is most obvious in the new testcase actually as it needs to delay
the action to give the acquire system enough time to figure out that
they can be merged.
|
|
Again, consistency is the main sellingpoint here, but this way it is now
also easier to explain that some files move through different stages and
lines are printed for them hence multiple times: That is a bit hard to
believe if the number is changing all the time, but now that it keeps
consistent.

Selecting targets based on the Release they belong to isn't to
unrealistic. In fact, it is assumed to be the most used case so it is
made the default especially as this allows to bundle another thing we
have to be careful with: Filenames and only showing targets we have
acquired.

Downloading additional files is only half the job. We still need a way
to allow external tools to know where the files are they requested for
download given that we don't want them to choose their own location.
'apt-get files' is our answer to this showing by default in a deb822
format information about each IndexTarget with the potential to filter
the records based on lines and an option to change the output format.
The command serves also as an example on how to get to this information
via libapt.

While it is mostly busywork to rewrite all instances it actually fixes
bugs as the data storage used by the new method is std::string rather
than a char*, the later mostly created by c_str() from a std::string
which the caller has to ensure keeps in scope – something apt-ftparchive
actually didn't ensure and relied on copy-on-write behavior instead
which c++11 forbids and hence the new default gcc abi doesn't use it.

Working with strings c-style is complicated and error-prune,
so by converting to c++ style we gain some simplicity and
avoid buffer overflows by later extensions.

By convention, if I run a tool with --help or --version I expect it to
exit successfully with the usage, while if I do call it wrong (like
without any parameters) I expect the usage message shown with a non-zero
exit.

partial files are chowned by the Item baseclass to let the methods work
with them. Now, this baseclass is also responsible for chowning the
files back to root instead of having various deeper levels do this.
The consequence is that all overloaded Failed() methods now call the
Item::Failed base as their first step. The same is done for Done().
The effect is that even in partial files usually don't belong to
_apt anymore, helping sneakernets and reducing possibilities of a bad
method modifying files not belonging to them.
The change is supported by the framework not only supporting being run
as root, but with proper permission management, too, so that privilege
dropping can be tested with them.
|
|
The conversion to accept only relevant options for commands has
forgotten another one, so adding it again even through the usecase might
very well be equally good served by --print-uris.

We are checking the space requirements for ages, but the check uses the
free blocks count, which includes the blocks reserved for usage by root.
Now that we use an unprivileged user it has no access to these blocks
anymore – and more importantly these blocks are a reserve, they
shouldn't be used by apt without special encouragement by the user as it
would be bad to have dpkg run out of diskspace and maintainerscripts
like man-db skip certain actions if not enough space is available
freely.

Privilege dropping breaks download/source/changelog commands as they
require the _apt user to have write permissions in the current directory,
which is e.g. the case in /tmp, but not in /root, so we disable the
privilege dropping if we deal with such a directory based on idea and
code by Michael Vogt.
The alternative would be to download always to a temp directory and move
it then done, but this breaks partial file support. To resolve this, we
could move to one of our partial/ directories, but this would require a
lock which would block root from using two of these commands in
parallel. As both seems unacceptable we instead let the user choose what
to do: Either a directory is setupped for _apt, downloading as root is
accepted or – which is potentially even better – an unprivileged user is
used for the commands.

Some distributions (or repositories) do not have as much
"Ign-discipline" as I would like to, so that could be pretty distracting
for our users if enabled by default. It is handy for testcases though.

consistently using Item::Failed in all specializec classes helps setting
up some information bits otherwise unset, so some errors had an empty
reason as an error. Ign is upgraded to display the error message we
ignored to further help in understanding what happens.
|

Reworks the API involved in creating and setting up the fetcher to be a
bit more pleasent to look at and work with as e.g. an empty string for
no lock isn't very nice. With the lock we can also stop creating all our
partial directories "just in case". This way we can also be a bit more
aggressive with the partial directory itself as with a lock, we know we
will gone need it.

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).

A long-lasting FIXME in the acquire code points out the problem that we
e.g. for decompressors assign c-string representations of c++-strings to
the Mode variable, which e.g. cppcheck points out as very bad.
In practice, nothing major happens as the c++-strings do not run out of
scope until Mode would do, but that is bad style and fragile, so the
obvious proper fix is to use a c++ string for storage to begin with.
The slight complications stems from the fact that progress reporting
code in frontends potentially uses Mode and compares it with NULL, which
can't be done with std::string, so instead of just changing the type we
introduce a new variable and deprecate the old one.

The introduction of Fnmatch showed that each new selector would require
multiple new virtual methods in the CacheSetHelper to work correctly,
which isn't that great. We now flip to a single virtual method which
handles all cases separated by an enum – as new enum values can be added
without an ABI break.
Great care was taken to make old code work with the new way of organisation,
which means in return that you might be bombarded with deprecation
warnings now if you don't adapt, but code should still compile and work
as before as can be seen in apt itself with this commit.

The comment above their definition marks them already as such, so this
is only a formalisation of the deprecation and fixes the occurances we
have in our own code together with removing a magic number.

Previously, we had a start and a done of the calculation printed by
higher-level code, but this got intermixed by progress reporting from an
external solver or the output of autoremove code…
The higherlevel code is now only responsible for instantiating a
progress object of its choosing (if it wants progress after all) and the
rest will be handled by the upgrade code. Either it is used to show the
progress of the external solver or the internal solver will give some
hints about its overall progress. The later isn't really a proper
progress as it will jump forward after each substep, but that is at
least a bit better than before without any progress indication.
Fixes also the 'strange' non-display of this progress line in -q=1, while
all others are shown, which is reflected by all testcase changes.

They both store the same information, so this field just takes up space
in the Package struct for no good reason. We mark it "just" as deprecated
instead of instantly removing it though as it isn't misleading like
Section was and is potentially used in the wild more often.

Most pagers are nice and default to running non-interactively if they
aren't connected to a terminal and we relied on that. On ci.debian.net
the configured pager is printing a header out of nowhere though, so if
we are printing to a non-terminal we call "cat" instead.
In the rework we also "remove" the dependency on sensible-utils in sofar
as we call some alternatives if calling the utils fail.
This seems to be the last problem preventing a "PASS" status on
ci.debian.net, so we close the associated bugreport.

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…

The method already deals with a format string, but had an else path
doing a hardcoded format as well. This is changed now to use the same

apt-cache search supported this since ever and in the code for apt was a

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.
|
|
The "apt list" command was using only the pkgDepCache but not the
pkgPolicy to figure out if a package is upgradable. This lead to
incorrect display of upgradable package when the user used the
policy to pin-down packages. Thanks to Michael Musenbrock for the
initial patch.
Closes: #753297
