2015-06-11implement 'apt-get files' to access index targetsDavid Kalnischkies
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.
2015-05-11drop incorrect parameter implicitely converted to boolDavid Kalnischkies
The helper expects to be told if it should generate messages, not where these messages should be printed – as it isn't printing such messages, but puts them in _error. apt-get uses in other methods a helper specialisation which does also print stuff to a stream through, so this is likely a copy&paste error.

2015-03-16stop displaying time of build in online helpJérémy Bobbio
As part of the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that apt could not be built reproducibly. One issue is that it uses the __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros of the C preprocessor to display the time of build in the online help. We believe this information not to be really useful to users as they can always look at the package data and metadata to figure it out. The attached patch simply removes this information. All non-documentation packages can then be built reproducibly with our current experimental framework. [David: changed the string slightly to be untranslateable as well] Closes: 774342

2014-11-10use 'best' hash for source authenticationDavid Kalnischkies
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. LP: 1098738
2014-11-09use pkgAcquire::GetLock instead of own codeDavid Kalnischkies
Do the same with less code in apt-get. This especially ensures that the lock file (and the parent directories) exist before we are trying to lock. It also means that clean now creates the directories if they are missing so we returned to a proper clean state now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-09streamline display of --help in all toolsDavid Kalnischkies
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.

2014-11-08better non-virtual metaIndex.LocalFileName() implementationDavid Kalnischkies
We can't add a new virtual method without breaking the ABI, but we can freely add new methods, so for older ABIs we just implement this method with a dynamic_cast, so that clients can be more ignorant about the API here and especially don't need to pull a very dirty trick by assuming internal knowledge (like apt-get did here).
2014-10-23chown finished partial files earlierDavid Kalnischkies
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.
2014-10-15check for available space, excluding root reserved blocksDavid Kalnischkies
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.
2014-10-15don't drop privileges if _apt has not enough rightsDavid Kalnischkies
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.

2014-10-07ensure partial dirs are 0700 and owned by _apt:rootDavid Kalnischkies
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.
2014-10-03apt-get: Create the temporary downloaded changelog inside tmpdirGuillem Jover
The code is creating a secure temporary directory, but then creates the changelog alongside the tmpdir in the same base directory. This defeats the secure tmpdir creation, making the filename predictable. Inject a '/' between the tmpdir and the changelog filename.

2014-09-27cleanup partial directory of lists in apt-get cleanDavid Kalnischkies
Not really the intended usecase for apt-get clean, but users expect it to help them in recovery and it can't really hurt as this directory should be empty if everything was fine and proper anyway. Closes: #762889
2014-09-27allow fetcher setup without directory creationDavid Kalnischkies
apt-get download and changelog as well as apt-helper reuse the acquire system for their own proposes without requiring the directories the fetcher wants to create, which is a problem if you run them as non-root and the directories do not exist as it greets you with: E: Archives directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing. - Acquire (13: Permission denied) Closes: 762898
2014-09-27store source name and version in binary cacheDavid Kalnischkies
Accessing the package records to acquire this information is pretty costly, so that information wasn't used so far in many places. The most noticeable user by far is EDSP at the moment, but there are ideas to change that which this commit tries to enable.
2014-09-27mark pkg(All|Dist)Upgrade as deprecatedDavid Kalnischkies

2014-08-26add dpkg::source-options for dpkg-source invocationDavid Kalnischkies
dpkg-source can be told to enforce signature checks with --require-valid-signature, but while this isn't feasible as default for Debian itself at the moment, a local admin should be able to use it. This commit also fixes the size limit on the construction of the command being called for dpkg-source and dpkg-buildpackage. Closes: 757534
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.

2014-05-09use HashStringList in the acquire systemDavid Kalnischkies
It is not very extensible to have the supported Hashes hardcoded everywhere and especially if it is part of virtual method names. It is also possible that a method does not support the 'best' hash (yet), so we might end up not being able to verify a file even though we have a common subset of supported hashes. And those are just two of the cases in which it is handy to have a more dynamic selection. The downside is that this is a MAJOR API break, but the HashStringList has a string constructor for compatibility, so with a bit of luck the few frontends playing with the acquire system directly are okay.

2014-03-13support DEB_BUILD_PROFILES and -P for build profilesDavid Kalnischkies
Inspired by the rest of the patch in 661537, but abstract the parsing of various ways of setting the build profiles more so it can potentially be reused and all apt parts have the same behaviour. Especially config options, cmdline options and environment will not be combined as proposed as this isn't APTs usual behaviour and dpkg doesn't do it either, so one overrides the other as it normally does.
