In af81ab9030229b4ce6cbe28f0f0831d4896fda01 by-hash got implemented as a
special compression type for our usual index files like Packages.
Missing in this scheme was the special .diff/Index index file containing
the info about individual patches for this index file. Deriving from the
index file class directly we inherent the compression handling
infrastructure and in this way also by-hash nearly for free.

All apt versions support numeric as well as 3-character timezones just
fine and its actually hard to write code which doesn't "accidently"
accepts it. So why change? Documenting the Date/Valid-Until fields in
the Release file is easy to do in terms of referencing the
datetime format used e.g. in the Debian changelogs (policy §4.4). This
format specifies only the numeric timezones through, not the nowadays
obsolete 3-character ones, so in the interest of least surprise we should
use the same format even through it carries a small risk of regression
in other clients (which encounter repositories created with
apt-ftparchive).
In case it is really regressing in practice, the hidden option
-o APT::FTPArchive::Release::NumericTimezone=0
can be used to go back to good old UTC as timezone.
The EDSP and EIPP protocols use this 'new' format, the text interface
used to communicate with the acquire methods does not for compatibility
reasons even if none of our methods would be effected and I doubt any
other would (in these instances the timezone is 'GMT' as that is what
HTTP/1.1 requires). Note that this is only true for apt talking to
methods, (libapt-based) methods talking to apt will respond with the
'new' format. It is therefore strongly adviced to support both also in
method input.

This reverts commit 2b8221d66a8284042fc53c7bbb14bb9750e9137f.
Avoiding the use of GCC >= 5 stuff lets use go back to 4.8 simplifying
the travis setup again as well as reducing the backport requirements in
general.
This is possible because the std::get_time use requiring GCC >= 5 in
9febc2b238e1e322dce1f94ecbed46d595893b52 was replaced by handrolling it
in 1d742e01470bba27715a8191c50adde4b39c2f19, so the remaining uses are
just small conviniences we can do without.

Using C++ here avoids calling setlocale here which never really was that
ideal, but needed to avoid locale specific weekday/month names.
|
|
Setting the C++ locale via std::locale::global(std::locale("")); which
would otherwise default to the default C locale (aka: unaffected by
setlocale) effects the formatting of numeric types in IO streams, which
for output for humans is perfectly sensible, but breaks our many text
interfaces used and parsed by us and others without expecting the
numbers to be formatted.

Having a hardcoded list of compression types here doesn't really provide
us with anything beside added complexity each time someone adds a new
compression type. That we don't need to be that specific is evident by
Contents and Translation-* matchers which are a lot more generic and
didn't generate problems anyhow.

Unlinking /dev/null is bad, we shouldn't do that. Also, we should print
at least a warning if we tried to unlink a file but didn't manage to
pull it of (ignoring the case were the file is /dev/null or doesn't
exist in the first place).
This got triggered by a relatively unlikely to cause problem in
pkgAcquire::Worker::PrepareFiles which would while temporary
uncompressed files (which are set to keep compressed) figure out that to
files are the same and prepare for sharing by deleting them. Bad move.
That also shows why not printing a warning is a bad idea as this hide
the error for in non-root test runs.

Based on a discussion with Niels Thykier who asked for Contents-all this
implements apt trying for all architecture dependent files to get a file
for the architecture all, which is treated internally now as an official
architecture which is always around (like native). This way arch:all
data can be shared instead of duplicated for each architecture requiring
the user to download the same information again and again.
There is one problem however: In Debian there is already a binary-all/
Packages file, but the binary-any files still include arch:all packages,
so that downloading this file now would be a waste of time, bandwidth
and diskspace. We therefore need a way to decide if it makes sense to
download the all file for Packages in Debian or not. The obvious answer
would be a special flag in the Release file indicating this, which would
need to default to 'no' and every reasonable repository would override
it to 'yes' in a few years time, but the flag would be there "forever".
Looking closer at a Release file we see the field "Architectures", which
doesn't include 'all' at the moment. With the idea outlined above that
'all' is a "proper" architecture now, we interpret this field as being
authoritative in declaring which architectures are supported by this
repository. If it says 'all', apt will try to get all, if not it will be
skipped. This gives us another interesting feature: If I configure a
source to download armel and mips, but it declares it supports only
armel apt will now print a notice saying as much. Previously this was a
very cryptic failure. If on the other hand the repository supports mips,
too, but for some reason doesn't ship mips packages at the moment, this
'missing' file is silently ignored (= that is the same as the repository
including an empty file).
The Architectures field isn't mandatory through, so if it isn't there,
we assume that every architecture is supported by this repository, which
skips the arch:all if not listed in the release file.

"apt-ftparchive release" will create the by-hash files if
this mode is enabled. This maybe unexpected by existing users
so make it a opt-in.

This option is enabled via the APT::FTPArchive::DoByHash switch.
It will also honor the option APT::FTPArchive::By-Hash-Keep that
controls how many previous generation of by-hash files should be
kept (defaults to 3).
Merged from https://github.com/mvo5/apt/tree/feature/apt-ftparchive-by-hash

Various small leaks here and there. Nothing particularily big, but still
good to fix. Found by the sanitizers while running our testcases.

While it is mostly busywork to rewrite all instances it actually fixes
bugs as the data storage used by the new method is std::string rather
than a char*, the later mostly created by c_str() from a std::string
which the caller has to ensure keeps in scope – something apt-ftparchive
actually didn't ensure and relied on copy-on-write behavior instead
which c++11 forbids and hence the new default gcc abi doesn't use it.

This rename with value is ordered by the 'old' name 'Source', but should
be ordered by the new name… by splitting the operation in a delete and a
new field we can easily fix this problem locally for now.

Methods get told which hashes are expected by the acquire system, which
means we can use this list to restrict what we calculate in the methods
as any extra we are calculating is wasted effort as we can't compare it
with anything anyway.
Adding support for a new hash algorithm is therefore 'free' now and if a
algorithm is no longer provided in a repository for a file, we
automatically stop calculating it.
In practice this results in a speed-up in Debian as we don't have SHA512
here (so far), so we practically stop calculating it.
|

Working with strings c-style is complicated and error-prune,
so by converting to c++ style we gain some simplicity and
avoid buffer overflows by later extensions.

Your mileage may vary, but don't worry: There is more than one way to
do it, but our one size fits all is not a bigger hammer, but an entire
roundhouse kick! So brace yourself for the tl;dr: The limit is gone.*
Beware: This fixes also the problem that a double newline is
unconditionally added 'later' which is an overcommitment in case
the dsc filesize is limit-2 <= x <= limit.
* limited to numbers fitting into an unsigned long long.

It is a very simple hashstring, which is why it isn't contributing to
the usability of a list of them, but it is also trivial to check and
calculate, so it doesn't hurt checking it either as it can combined even
with the simplest other hashes greatly complicate attacks on them as you
suddenly need a same-size hash collision, which is usually a lot harder
to achieve.
|
|
Now that libapts acquire system happily passes around hashes and can be
made to support new ones without an ABI break in the future, we can
free ftparchive from all the deprecation warnings the last commit
introduced for it.
The goal here isn't to preserve ABI as we have none to keep here, but to
help avoiding introduction problems of 'new' hashes later as bugs creep
into the copy&paste parts, so short/less of them is good.
|
|
Arrays with predefined lengths are very fragile as they are
likely forgotten in future changes and the size in this case
is dynamic making it even more dangerous.

Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems
I have with high levels of parallel jobs.

- handle the APT::FTPArchive::Packages::SHA512 option correctly instead
of overriding SHA256, thanks Christian Marillat! (Closes: #680252)

- include Contents-* files in Release files (Closes: #673647)
|
|
- drop support for i18n/Index file (introduced in 0.8.11) and use
the Release file instead to get the Translations (Closes: #649314)
* ftparchive/writer.cc:
- add 'Translation-*' to the default patterns
i18n/Index was never used outside debian - and even here it isn't used
consistently as only 'main' has such a file. As the Release file now
includes the Translation-* files we therefore drop support for i18n/Index.
A version supporting it was never part of a debian release and still
supporting it would mean that we get 99% of the time a 404 as response
to the request anyway and confuse archive maintainers who want to
provide all files APT tries to acquire.
