We now wait for being online ourselves, so all we need to wait
on is for services we are using to be online first. This avoids
severe boot slowdowns by other services having specified an
After=network-online.target without a Wants=.

Introduce a new helper, apt-helper wait-online that uses
NetworkManager and/or systemd-networkd to wait for them
reporting online, with a time out of 30 seconds; and run
that helper before running the daily update script.

This makes it easier to see which headers includes what.
The changes were done by running
git grep -l '#\s*include' \
| grep -E '.(cc|h)$' \
| xargs sed -i -E 's/(^\s*)#(\s*)include/\1#\2 include/'
To modify all include lines by adding a space, and then running
./git-clang-format.sh.

Several modules use std::array without including the
array header. Bad modules.
Some modules use STDOUT_FILENO and friends, or close()
without including unistd.h, where they are defined.
One module also uses WIFEXITED() without including
sys/wait.h.
Finally, environ is not specified to be defined in unistd.h. We
are required to define it ourselves according to POSIX, so let's
do that.

There is a subtile difference between an empty setting and "DIRECT" in
the configuration as the later overrides the generic settings while the
earlier does not. Also, non-zero exitcodes should really be reported as
an error rather than silently discarded.

Broken in e7e10e47476606e3b2274cf66b1e8ea74b236757 by looking always
into "apt" while we ship some tools in "apt-utils"…

Setting the C++ locale via std::locale::global(std::locale("")); which
would otherwise default to the default C locale (aka: unaffected by
setlocale) effects the formatting of numeric types in IO streams, which
for output for humans is perfectly sensible, but breaks our many text
interfaces used and parsed by us and others without expecting the
numbers to be formatted.

This way it works more similar to the compressor binaries, which we
can relief in this way from their job in the test framework avoiding the
need of adding e.g. liblz4-tool to the test dependencies.
|
|
This allows passing compressing the output. The compressor must
be a compressor name, extension, or an extension without the
leading dot.
|
|
There's no point in keeping using yet another read-then-write
loop.

This can automatically handle compressed files and is useful
for stuff like apt-file.

Include <stdlib.h> to ensure that atoi(3) is defined to improve
general portability and fix a specific build failure on Android.

Passing function pointers around while working on this was very icky,
but if weak symbols are too much to ask for…
Reverts "do not use "-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions" during the build to avoid
breakage" aka a5fc9be36211a290a7abc3ca2a8bf98943bc1f57.

The general idea is: A small paragraph on the tool itself as a
description, a list of the most used (!= all) commands available in the
tool, a remark where to find more information on the tool and its
commands (aka: in the manpage) and finally a common block referring to
even more manpages. In exchange options are completely omitted from the
output as well as deprecated or obscure commands. (Better) Information
about them is available in the manpages anyway and the few options which
were listed before were also the least interesting ones (-o -c -q and co
are hardly of interest for someone totally new looking to find info by
asking for help and anyone with a bit of experience doesn't need this
short list. Those would need a list of options applying to the command
they call, but they are too numerous and command specific to list them
sanely in this context.

Its not as simple as I initially thought to abstract this enough to make
it globally usable, so lets not pollute global namespace with this for
now.

This ensures that location strings loaded from a location specified via
configuration (Dir::Locale) effect the help messages for commands.

-q is for logging and -qqq (old -qq) basically kills every output expect
errors, so there should be a way of declaring a middleground in which
the output of e.g. 'update' isn't as verbose, but still shows some
things. The test framework was actually making use of by accident as it
ignored the quiet level in output setup for apt before.
Eventually we should figure out some better quiet levels for all tools…
|
|
All mains pretty much do the same thing, so lets try a little harder to
move the common parts into -private to have the real differences more
visible.

That is one huge commit with busy work only: Help messages used to be
one big translateable string, which is a pain for translators and hard
to reuse for us. This change there 'explodes' this single string into
new string for each documented string trying hard to split up the
translated messages as well. This actually restores many translations as
previously adding a single command made all of the bug message fuzzy.
The splitup also highlighted that its easy to forget a line, duplicate
one and similar stuff.

And of course, testing obscure things ends up showing obscure 'bugs' or
better shortcomings/inconsitencies, so lets fix them with the tests.

Initializing a random number generator with the time since epoch could
be good enough, but reaches its limits in test code as the 100
iterations might very well happen in the same second and hence the seed
number is always the same… clock() has a way lower resolution so it
changes more often and not unimportant: If many users start the update
at the same time it isn't to unlikely the SRV record will be ordered in
the same second choosing the same for them all, but it seems less likely
that the exact same clock() time has passed for them.
And if I have to touch this, lets change a few other things as well to
make me and/or compilers a bit happier (clang complained about the usage
of a GNU extension in the testcase for example).

We had a very similar method previously for our own private usage, but
with some generalisation we can move this check into the acquire system
proper so that all frontends profit from this compatibility change.
As we are disabling a security feature here a warning is issued and
frontends are advised to consider reworking their download logic if
possible.
Note that this is implemented as an all or nothing situation: We can't
just (not) drop privileges for a subset of the files in a fetcher, so in
case you have to download some files with and some without you need to
use two fetchers.

This isn't testing much of the 'complex' parts,
but its better than nothing for now.

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]

Real webservers (like apache) actually send an error page with a 416
response, but our client didn't expect it leaving the page on the socket
to be parsed as response for the next request (http) or as file content
(https), which isn't what we want at all… Symptom is a "Bad header line"
as html usually doesn't parse that well to an http-header.
This manifests itself e.g. if we have a complete file (or larger) in
partial/ which isn't discarded by If-Range as the server doesn't support
it (or it is just newer, think: mirror rotation).
It is a sort-of regression of 78c72d0ce22e00b194251445aae306df357d5c1a,
which removed the filesize - 1 trick, but this had its own problems…
To properly test this our webserver gains the ability to reply with
transfer-encoding: chunked as most real webservers will use it to send
the dynamically generated error pages.

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.

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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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)

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.
