The very first step in introducing the "external installation planer
protocol" (short: EIPP) as part of my GSoC2016 project.
The description reads: APT-based tools like apt-get, aptitude, synaptic,
… work with the user to figure out how their system should look like
after they are done installing/removing packages and their dependencies.
The actual installation/removal of packages is done by dpkg with the
constrain that dependencies must be fulfilled at any point in time (e.g.
to run maintainer scripts).
Historically APT has a super micro-management approach to this task
which hasn't aged that well over the years mostly ignoring changes in
dpkg and growing into an unmaintainable mess hardly anyone can debug and
everyone fears to touch – especially as more and more requirements are
tacked onto it like handling cycles and triggers, dealing with
"important" packages first, package sources on removable media, touch
minimal groups to be able to interrupt the process if needed (e.g.
unattended-upgrades) which not only sky-rocket complexity but also can
be mutually exclusive as you e.g. can't have minimal groups and minimal
trigger executions at the same time.

debian/apt.apt-compat.cron.daily is using on_ac_power utility
|
|
.. instead of hardcoding the functionnality in the apt.systemd.daily
script.
Also make the compatibility cron job provide the same functionnality
for systems that do not use systemd.

Quite a huge churn of new strings.

EDSP had a WriteSolution method to write out the entire solution based
on the inspection of a given pkgDepCache, but that is rather inflexible
both for EDSP itself and for other EDSP like-protocols. It seems better
to use a smaller scope in printing just a single stanza based on a given
version as there is more reuse potential.

This reduces the number of symbols by about 10%. Unfortunately,
it does not seem to cover all the weird std::vector and friend
template expansions.
ABI should not brake due to that change: It was never specified
before whether an inline symbol was exported or not; so no library
could rely on its presence. Instead, the symbols were exported in
each library/program needing it and and then merged into a common
one by the dynamic linker.
Also update the symbol files to account for the removed symbols.

David added some more when he changed the output format for
numbers.

The debian/rules file tries to guess in which directory it is supposed
to be building, but that guess is always ./build – if it wasn't it
would fail later as not all rules take alternatives into acount.
So, as this is clearly not used lets remove this complexity instead of
fixing it up.

The embedding is done completely automatic by doxygen and documented to
be that way for reasons: /usr/share/doc/doxygen/README.jquery
As we can't do anything about it, it is pointless to keep the warning.

We don't have no menu file.

The rest is also on the same line, so let's go consistent here
now that we have a bug report about it.

A frontend like apt-file is only interested in a specific set of files
and selects those easily via "Created-By". If it supports two locations
for those files through it would need to select both and a user would
need to know that implementation detail for sources.list configuration.
The "Identifier" field is hence introduced which by default has the same
value as "Created-By", but can be freely configured – especially it can
be used to give two indexes the same identifier.

apt doesn't need gnupg in its main execution paths to function,
especially the Release file verification is done with gpgv only.
It is only used by apt-key for advanced key management functionality
most user will never use nor need.
The intend is to demote it eventually to Suggests, but we opt here for a
staged downgrade as there are still third-party repositories out there
which require apt-key functionality without depending on gnupg (or apt
for that matter).

See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2956 - it appears that
`OnCalendar=*-*-* 6,18:00` and `OnCalendar=*-*-* 6:00,18:00` are
quite different.

The rational is that we need to spread the load on the mirrors
that apt update and unattended-upgrades cause. To do so, we
leverage the RandomizeDelay feature of systemd. The other advantage
is that the timer is not run at a fixed daily.daily time but
instead every 24h. This also fixes the problem that the randomized
deplay in the current apt.cron.daily causes other cron jobs to
be deplayed.
A compatibility cron job is also provided for systems that do not
use systemd.
Note that the time is fired two times a day, but the logic inside
of apt.systemd.daily will ensure (via stamp files) that the
servers are hit at most every 24h. Firing two times a day helps
with the worst case update time and it also helps with systems
that are not always on.

The problemresolver will set the candidate version for pkg P back
to the current version if it encounters an impossible to satisfy
critical dependency on P. However it did not set the State of
the package back as well which lead to a situation where P is
neither in Keep,Install,Upgrade,Delete state.
Note that this can not be tested via the traditional sh based
framework. I added a python-apt based test for this.
LP: #1550741
[jak@debian.org: Make the test not fail if apt_pkg cannot be
imported]

We do not follow the recommendation with regards to placement
of documentation in apt-doc, as we install in apt-doc, but
it's only a recommendation and I don't want think we should
move them.

We need r126 of lz4, as this introduces the lz4frame.h
header.
|
|
This is not really needed anymore, as those are in stable,
but as they are versioned already, let's just do it.

There's no point in breaking all older apt-file versions just
because one old experimental upload was broken.
