We support "./foobar.deb" as a way to install a deb file directly.
Recently .changes files were added. This highlights a problem as you
can't add the changes file without also trying to install all of them.
Now, it could also be handy to add entire Packages/Sources files to
perhaps get a bunch of packages in without installing them all
implicitly.
This commit introduces --with-source which allows to add *.deb, *.changes,
*.dsc, source-dirs, Packages & Sources files (the later can also be
compressed) without also installing them.

Never updating this information is wrong, updating it automatically
isn't super correct either, but it seems conventional to have it and
updating it more often than needed seems better than updating it never.

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.

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.

Not all are needed for all files at the moment, but the new docbook
building hadn't available some of the entities it used as the files
weren't correctly copied around in all cases and having the same across
the bord makes working with all of them a little easier.

manpages sometimes refer to distro-specific things like the name of the
package providing the achive-keyring. Having a central place to
configure this helps in having it consistent in the manpages and allows
to load this info from other places in the buildsystem as well later.

- three small rewordings for better english sentences
|
|
- fix a typo as well as adding missing literal markup
|
|
- remove 'GNU/Linux' from 'Debian systems' strings as Debian
has more systems than just GNU/Linux nowadays
|
|
|
|
- mark even more stuff as untranslateable and improve the
markup here and there (no real text change)
|
|
|
|
as untranslated for po4a removing ~200 unless "translateable" strings
|
|
- add a few translator notes and reword some paragraphs to ensure that
translators and users alike can better understand them (Closes: #669409)
|
|
- move the command synopsis out of each manpage into apt-verbatim.ent
as they are a hell to translate and just single out the parameters
which can be translated to apt.ent
|
|
- apply madison typofix from John Feuerstein, thanks! (Closes: #633455)
|
|
|
|
- remove not implemented 'apt-cache add' command
* doc/apt-cache.8.xml:
- describe reality as apt-cache just queries and doesn't manipulate
the caches. Thanks to Enrico Zini for spotting it! (Closes: #612009)
|
|
- move some strings into apt-verbatim.ent to avoid showing them in
apt-doc.pot as they are untranslatable anyway (e.g. manpage references)
|
|
- be able to omit dependency types in (r)depends (Closes: #319006)
|
|
Patch by Chris Leick which closes his on bug. Thanks!
* doc/ various manpages:
- correct various errors, typos and oddities (Closes: #552535)

|
|
* doc/*.?.xml (manpages):
- add contrib to author tags and also add refmiscinfo to fix warnings
|

|
the apt-get manpage.

* Apply --important option to apt-cache depends (LP: #16947)
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- Added fallback to uncompressed 'Packages' if neither 'bz2' nor 'gz'
available. (Closes: #409284)
* apt-pkg/algorithm.cc:
- Strip username and password from source URL in error message.
(Closes: #425150)
* Fix typos:
- apt-pkg/depcache.cc
* Fix compilation warnings:
- apt-pkg/acquire.cc
- apt-pkg/versionmatch.cc
* Compilation fixes and portability improvement for compiling APT against non-GNU libc
(thanks to Martin Koeppe, closes: #392063):
- buildlib/apti18n.h.in:
+ textdomain() and bindtextdomain() must not be visible when --disable-nls
- buildlib/inttypes.h.in: undefine standard int*_t types
- Append INTLLIBS to SLIBS:
+ cmdline/makefile
+ ftparchive/makefile
+ methods/makefile
* doc/apt.conf.5.xml:
- clarify whether configuration items of apt.conf are case-sensitive
(thanks to Vincent McIntyre, closes: #345901)
* doc/apt-cache.8.xml:
- search command uses POSIX regex, and searches for virtual packages too
(closes: #277536)
* doc/offline.sgml: clarify remote and target hosts
(thanks to Nikolaus Schulz, closes: #175940)
* Fix several typos in docs, translations and debian/changelog
(thanks to timeless, Nicolas Bonifas and Josh Triplett,
closes: #368665, #298821, #411532, #431636, #461458)

* Retitle the apt-mark.8 manpage (thanks to Justin Pryzby, closes: #471276)
* Better documentation on using both APT::Default-Release and
/etc/apt/preferences (thanks to Ingo Saitz, closes: #145575)
* doc/apt-cache.8.xml:
- add missing citerefentry
* Upload to unstable
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- Store the trigger state descriptions in a way that does not break
the ABI. The approach taken makes the search for a string O(n) rather
than O(lg(n)), but since n == 4, I do not consider this a major
concern. If it becomes a concern, we can sort the static array and
use std::equal_range(). (Closes: #499322)

language (closes: #400768)
