nl_langinfo is used to acquire the YESEXPR of the language used,
but it will return the one from LC_MESSAGES, which might be different
from the language chosen for display of the question (based on LANGUAGE)
so this commit removes the [Y/n] help text from the questions itself and
moves it to the prompt creation in which the usage of LC_MESSAGES is
forced for it, so that the helptext shown actually represents the
characters accepted as input for the question.
There is still room for problems of course starting with an untranslated
"[Y/n]" but a translated YESEXPR or the problem that the question is
asked in a completely different language which might have a conflicting
definition of [Y/n] input or the user simple ignores the helptext and
assumes that an answer matching the question language is accepted, but
the mayority of users will never have this problem to begin with, so we
should be fine (or at least a bit finer than before).
Closes nothing really, but should at least help a bit with bugs like
deb:194614, deb:471102, lp:1205578, and countless others.

Using the static FileFd::Write method gives us error messages for free
so we use it here to avoid failing silently (with a fail silent error).

Beside the earlier fixed 'apt-cache show', 'showpkg' and 'search' deal
with descriptions. 'showpkg' was fixed by fixing the cache generation
for 'show', but 'search' still segfaulted.
On the upside, it doesn't segfault any longer, on the downside, if a
package has no description at all (aka: not in the Packages file and not
in a Translation-* file) the package can't be found with 'search', even
if we search only by name. That is a shortcoming in the code, but fixing
it means rewriting it completely for dubious gain at best.
So this commit just skips packages without a description and is done.

Given a Packages file like:
[…]
Description: foo bar baz
moo moo moo
Multi-Arch: foreign
Description-md5: 97e204a9f4ad8c681dbd54ec7c505251
[…]
We have to display the Multi-Arch flag field as well as the fields
after the Description-md5, but not this field itself, as we already
have one printed alongside the Description we display.

The default is to ask udev for location and mountpoints of CD-ROMs,
but the old way of specifying the mountpoint is still available and
is tried now in case udev doesn't find any CD-ROM.
It probably fails, too, but we get a bunch of error messages this
way and the user can get an idea of how to make his setup work even
if udev can't be convienced to return something useful.

do not blindly assume that all packages stanzas have a "Description:"
field in 'apt-cache show' as well as in the cache creation itself.
We instead assume now that if the stanza has a Description, it will not
be the first field as we look out for "\nDescription" to take care of
MD5sum as well as (maybe ignored) translated Descriptions embedded in
the package stanza.
Closes: #712435

Patterns can appear in the name as well as in the description,
they don't have to match all in the name/description only.

In the past packages were flagged "Protected" so that install/
remove markings where issued before the ProblemResolver.
Nowadays, the marking methods check if they are allowed to modify
the marking of a package instead, so that markings set by FromUser
calls are not overwritten anymore by automatic calls which elimates
the need for InstallProtect which just eats CPU now.
The method itself is left untouched for now in case frontend needs it
still for some wierd usecase, but they should be eliminated.

- do not call Mark{Install,Delete} from the autoremove code with
the FromUser bit set to avoid modifying the auto-installed bit
|
|
prevent problems like #691024 in new translations
|
|
- print versioned dependency relations in (r)depends if the option
APT::Cache::ShowVersion is true (default: false) as discussed in
#218995 to help debian-cd fixing #687949. Thanks to Sam Lidder
for initial patch and Steve McIntyre for nagging and testing!

purely virtual and shouldn't error out cause of that
|
|
- error out on (unsatisfiable) build-deps on purly virtual packages
instead of ignoring these dependencies; thanks to Johannes Schauer
for the detailed report! (Closes: #683786)

- arch:all packages are treated as arch:native packages, but dpkg
expects pkg:all for selections, so use the arch of the installed
version instead of the package structure if possible.
Thanks to Stepan Golosunov for the report! (Closes: #680041)

- print a friendly message in 'download' if a package can't be
downloaded (Closes: #677887)

- do not hardcode /etc but use Dir::Etc instead
|
|
- do not show 'list of broken packages' header if no package
is broken as it happens e.g. for external resolver errors
|

- use the host architecture, not the build architecture for matching
of [architecture restrictions] in Build-Depends (Closes: #672927)

- make it possible to limit dump to a subtree
- implement --empty and --format option for dump
|
|
- if pkgCacheFile::Generate is disabled in 'update' don't
remove the caches (and don't try to open them)

- print list of autoremoves in alphabetical order (Closes: #639008)

- distinguish information about 'apt-get autoremove' based on the
number of auto-removed packages both before and after the list
of packages (Closes: #665833)

- ship the ftparchive, apt-extractemplates and apt-sortpkgs locales
in the apt-utils package instead of the apt package

to the more standard PACKAGE_VERSION and make it work in every file
