2014-10-07use _apt:root only for partial directoriesDavid Kalnischkies
Using a different user for calling methods is intended to protect us from methods running amok (via remotely exploited bugs) by limiting what can be done by them. By using root:root for the final directories and just have the files in partial writeable by the methods we enhance this in sofar as a method can't modify already verified data in its parent directory anymore. As a side effect, this also clears most of the problems you could have if the final directories are shared without user-sharing or if these directories disappear as they are now again root owned and only the partial directories contain _apt owned files (usually none if apt isn't running) and the directory itself is autocreated with the right permissions.

2014-10-01Use Acquire::Allow{InsecureRepositories,DowngradeToInsecureRepositories}Michael Vogt
The configuration key Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories controls if apt allows loading of unsigned repositories at all. The configuration Acquire::AllowDowngradeToInsecureRepositories controls if a signed repository can ever become unsigned. This should really never be needed but we provide it to avoid having to mess around in /var/lib/apt/lists if there is a use-case for this (which I can't think of right now).
