2020-12-27patterns: Add dependency patterns ?depends, ?conflicts, etc.Julian Andres Klode
These match the target package, not target versions which is slightly unfortunate but might make sense. Maybe we should add a version that matches Versions instead.

2020-12-18Keep URIs encoded in the acquire systemDavid Kalnischkies
We do not deal a lot with URIs which need encoding, but then we do it is a pain that we store it decoded in the acquire system as it means we have to decode and reencode URIs eventually which is potentially giving us slightly different URIs. We see that in our own testing framework while setting up redirects as the config options are effectively double-encoded and decoded to pass them around successfully as otherwise %2f and / in an URI are treated the same. This commit adds the infrastructure for methods to opt into getting URIs send in encoded form (and returning them to us in encoded form, too) so that we eventually do not have to touch the URIs which is how it should be. This means though that we have to deal with methods who do not support this yet (aka: all at the moment) for which we decode and encode while communicating with them.

2020-11-07Prepare rred binary for external usageDavid Kalnischkies
Merging patches is a bit of non-trivial code we have for client-side work, but as we support also server-side merging we can export this functionality so that server software can reuse it. Note that this just cleans up and makes rred behave a bit more like all our other binaries by supporting setting configuration at runtime and supporting --help and --version. If you can make due without this, the now advertised functionality is provided already in earlier versions.

2020-06-03Allow 20 instead of 10 loops for pkgProblemResolverDavid Kalnischkies
Especially if a lot packages have to be removed due to not to explicitly expressed conflicts the problem resolver can take a few turns to remove them all. Allowing it to try a little longer if needed seems beneficial as the worst which can happen is that we now take two times as long to present an error message to the user.

People are still using apt-key add and friends, despite that not being guaranteed to work. Let's tell them to stop doing so. We might still want a list command at a future point, but this needs deciding, and a blanket ban atm seems like a sensible step until we figured that out.

2020-04-09ubuntu: http: Add non-interactive to user agent if run by systemdJulian Andres Klode
Include that apt is being run from a service in the user agent, so traffic can be analysed for interactive vs non-interactive use, and prioritised accordingly. It looks like this now: User-Agent: Debian APT-HTTP/1.3 (2.0.1) non-interactive A previous version included the full service names, but this raised some privacy concerns. LP: #1825000

2020-03-24configure-index: Add APT::Color optionJulian Andres Klode
This caused unbound error list growth, because each time we dumped an error, the calls to _config->FindB() inside operator << would add 3 new errors of the form: W: Using unknown config option »apt::color« of type BOOL Hence we are dumping an infinite list of errors, and eventually that list will exceed available memory.

2020-03-06Show absolute time while waiting for lock instead of %, rework messageJulian Andres Klode
Showing a percentage for a timeout is pretty non-standard. Rework the progress class so it can show an absolute progress (currently hardcoded to use seconds as a unit). If there is a timeout (aka if it's not the maximum long long unsigned -1llu), then show the timeout, otherwise just count up seconds, e.g. Waiting for cache lock: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 33842 (apt)... 1/120s or Waiting for cache lock: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 33842 (apt)... 1s Also improve the error message to use "Waiting for cache lock: %s" instead of "... (%s)", as having multiple sentences inside parenthesis is super weird, as is having two closing parens. We pass the information via _config, as that's reasonably easy and avoids ABI hackage. It also provides an interesting debugging tool for other kinds of progress.

This is a rework of !6 with additional stuff for the frontend lock, so we can lock the frontend lock and then keep looping over dpkg lock.
