2009-07-21The 'not dead yet' releaseMichael Vogt
* add hook for MarkInstall and MarkDelete (closes: #470035) * add the various foldmarkers in apt-pkg & cmdline (no code change) * versions with a pin of -1 shouldn't be a candidate (Closes: #355237) * prefer mmap as memory allocator in MMap instead of a static char array which can (at least in theory) grow dynamic * eliminate (hopefully all) segfaults in pkgcachegen.cc and mmap.cc which can arise if cache doesn't fit into the mmap (Closes: #535218) * display warnings instead of errors if the parts dirs doesn't exist * honor the dpkg hold state in new Marker hooks (closes: #64141)
2009-07-21* apt-pkg/acquire.cc:Michael Vogt
- make the max pipeline depth of the acquire queue configurable via Acquire::Max-Pipeline-Depth * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc: - add Dpkg::UseIoNice boolean option to run dpkg with ionice -c3 (off by default) - send "dpkg-exec" message on the status fd when dpkg is run - provide DPkg::Chroot-Directory config option (useful for testing) - fix potential hang when in a backgroud process group * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc: - consider recommends when making the scores for the problem resolver * apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc: - show error details of failed methods * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc: - if a process aborts with signal, show signal number * methods/http.cc: - ignore SIGPIPE, we deal with EPIPE from write in HttpMethod::ServerDie() (LP: #385144) * apt-pkg/indexcopy.cc: - support having CDs with no Packages file (just a Packages.gz) by not forcing a verification on non-existing files (LP: #255545) - remove the gettext from a string that consists entirely of variables (LP: #56792) * apt-pkg/cacheiterators.h: - add missing checks for Owner == 0 in end() * apt-pkg/indexrecords.cc: - fix some i18n issues * apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.h: - add new strprintf() function to make i18n strings easier - fix compiler warning * apt-pkg/deb/debsystem.cc: - make strings i18n able * fix problematic use of tolower() when calculating the version hash by using locale independant tolower_ascii() function. Thanks to M. Vefa Bicakci (LP: #80248) * build fixes for g++-4.4 * cmdline/apt-mark: - add "showauto" option to show automatically installed packages * document --install-recommends and --no-install-recommends (thanks to Dereck Wonnacott, LP: #126180) * Updated cron script to support backups by hardlinks and verbose levels. All features turned off by default. * Added more error handlings. Closes: #438803, #462734, #454989, * Refactored condition structure to make download and upgrade performed if only previous steps succeeded. Closes: #341970 * Documented all cron script related configuration items in configure-index. * apt-ftparchive might write corrupt Release files (LP: #46439) * Apply --important option to apt-cache depends (LP: #16947)
