We deal with Conflicts in SmartUnpack in pretty much the same way, but
Breaks weren't handled in SmartConfigure so that the remove was sheduled
after the configuration of the package breaking the to-be-removed.

The rest of the initial patch is not needed or incorrect in our usage.
Big changes for the dselect scripts seem unneeded as well as those are
hardly used by anyone anymore…

oldlibs used to be in APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections so that old
transition packages can be removed without causing the then
(autoinstalled) renamed package to be autoremoved. It isn't ideal
through as ideally you want the oldlibs package to be removed after
nothing depends on it anymore regardless of if you have once installed
it by hand or not – and if you had the package talking over (the
dependencies) should carry the manual bit now as they are the real deal
now.
As an added bonus if the package has no dependencies because it is an
oldlibs without a direct replacement you should move away from (like
lib1 and lib2 are currently in the archive, but there will hopefully
only be lib2 in the release) you get a lib1 marked as auto.
If the user still needs the oldlibs package for some reason all he has
to do is mark it as manual once as this move is only performed if a
installed package changes its section from a not-Move-Autobit-Sections
to a Move-Autobit-Sections.
|

Having the handling in MarkInstall means that it just effects
installation of the metapackage, but if the dependencies change the new
dependencies aren't protected (and the old dependencies are still
protected for no 'reason'). Having it in MarkDelete means that if a
metapackage is sheduled for removal all its currently installed
dependencies are marked as manual, which helps against both as in this
case there is no new/old and additionally if a user decides the
installation of a metapackage was wrong he can just remove it
explicitely avoid the manual marking entirely.

In 50ef3344c3afaaf9943142906b2f976a0337d264 (and similar for other
branches), while 'fixing' the edgecase of a package being in multiple
sections (e.g. moved from libs to oldlibs in newer releases) I
accidently broke the feature itself completely by operating on the
package itself and no longer on its dependencies…
The behaviour isn't ideal in multiple ways, which we are hopefully able
to fix with new ideas as mentioned in the buglog, but until then the
functionality of this "hack" should be restored.

I never understood why there is an extra newline in those messages, so
now is as good time as any to drop them. Lets see if someone complains
with a good reason to keep it…
|

Reporting errors from Done() is bad for progress reporting and such, so
factoring this out is a good idea and we start with moving the supposed-
to-be clearsigned file isn't clearsigned out first – improving the error
message in the process as we use the same message for a similar case
(NODATA) as this is what I have to look at with the venue wifi at
DebCamp and the old errormessage doesn't really say anything.

Now that we can dynamically create dependencies and provides as needed
rather than requiring to know with which architectures we will deal
before running we can allow the listparser to parse all records rather
than skipping records of "unknown" architectures.
This can e.g. happen if a user has foreign architecture packages in his
status file without dpkg knowing about this architecture (or apt
configured in this way).
A sideeffect is that now arch:all packages are (correctly) recorded as
available from any Packages file, not just from the native one – which
has its downsides for the resolver as mixed-arch source packages can
appear in different architectures at different times, but that is the
problem of the resolver and dealing with it in the parser is at best a
hack (and also depends on a helpful repository).
Another sideeffect is that his allows :none packages to appear in
Packages files again as we don't do any kind of checks now, but given
that they aren't really supported (anymore) by anyone we can live with
that.

Trade deduplication of code for a bunch of new virtuals, so it is
actually visible how the different indexes behave cleaning up the
interface at large in the process.

Sources are usually defined in sources.list (and co) and are pretty
stable, but once in a while a frontend might want to add an additional
"source" like a local .deb file to install this package (No support for
'real' sources being added this way as this is a multistep process).
We had a hack in place to allow apt-get and apt to pull this of for a
short while now, but other frontends are either left in the cold by this
and/or the code for it looks dirty with FIXMEs plastering it and has on
top of this also some problems (like including these 'volatile' sources
in the srcpkgcache.bin file).
So the biggest part in this commit is actually the rewrite of the cache
generation as it is now potentially a three step process. The biggest
problem with adding support now through is that this makes a bunch of
previously mostly unusable by externs and therefore hidden classes
public, so a bit of further tuneing on this now public API is in order…
|
|
Now that we deal with provides in a more dynamic fashion the last
remaining problem is explicit dependencies like 'Conflicts: foo' which
have to apply to all architectures, but creating them all at the same
time requires us to know all architectures ending up in the cache which
isn't needed to be the same set as all foreign architectures.
The effect is visible already now through as this prevents the creation
of a bunch of virtual packages for arch:all packages and as such also
many dependencies, just not very visible if you don't look at the stats…

Expecting the worst is easy to code, but has its disadvantages e.g.
by creating package structures which otherwise would have never
existed. By creating the provides instead at the time a package
structure is added we are well prepared for the introduction of partial
architectures, massive amounts of M-A:foreign (and :allowed) and co as
far as provides are concerned at least. We have something relatively
similar for dependencies already.
Many tests are added for both M-A states and the code cleaned to
properly support implicit provides for foreign architectures and
architectures we 'just' happen to parse.

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.

Cache generation needs a way of quickly iterating over the unique potion
of the dependencies to be able to share them. By linking them together
we can reduce the speed penality (~ 80%) with only a small reduction in
saved size (~ 20%).

Further abstracting our new ShowList allows to use it for containers of
strings as well giving us the option to implement an or-groups display
for the recommends and suggests lists which is a nice trick given that
it also helps with migrating the last remaining other cases of old
ShowList.
|
|
apt-get is displaying various lists of package names, which until now it
was building as a string before passing it to ShowList, which inserted
linebreaks at fitting points and showed a title if needed, but it never
really understood what it was working with. With the help of C++11 the
new generic knows not only what it works with, but generates the list on
the fly rather than asking for it and potentially discarding parts of
the input (= the non-default verbose display). It also doubles as a test
for how usable the CacheSets are with C++11.
(Not all callers are adapted yet.)

'files' is a bit too generic as a name for a command usually only used
programmatically (if at all) by developers, so instead of "wasting" this
generic name for this we use "indextargets" which is actually the name
of the datastructure the displayed data is stored in.
Along with this rename the config options are renamed accordingly.

Redirectors like httpredir.debian.org orchestra the download from
multiple (hopefully close) mirrors while having only a single central
sources.list entry by using redirects. This has the effect that the
progress report always shows the source it started with, not the mirror
it ends up fetching from, which is especially problematic for error
reporting as having a report for a "Hashsum mismatch" for the redirector
URI is next to useless as nobody knows which URI it was really fetched
from (regardless of it coming from a user or via the report script) from
this output alone. You would need to enable debug output and hope for
the same situation to arise again…
We hence reuse the UsedMirror field of the mirror:// method and detect
redirects which change the site and declare this new site as the
UsedMirrror (and adapt the description).
The disadvantage is that there is no obvious mapping anymore (it is
relatively easy to guess through with some experience) from progress
lines to sources.list lines, so error messages need to take care to use
the Target description (rather than current Item description) if they
want to refer to the sources.list entry.

The previous commit returns to the possibility of using just gpgv for
verification proposes. There is one problem through: We can't enforce a
specific keyid without using gpg, but our acquire method can as it
parses gpgv output anyway, so it can deal with good signatures from not
expected signatures and treats them as unknown keys instead.
Git-Dch: Ignore
|
|
If all keyrings are simple keyrings we can merge the keyrings with cat
rather than doing a detour over gpg --export | --import (see #790665),
which means 'apt-key verify' can do without gpg and just use gpgv as
before the merging change.
We declare this gpgv usage explicit now in the dependencies. This isn't
a new dependency as gnupg as well as debian-archive-keyring depend on
and we used it before unconditionally, just that we didn't declare it.
The handling of the merged keyring needs to be slightly different as our
merged keyring can end up containing the same key multiple times, but at
least currently gpg does remove only the first occurrence with
--delete-keys, so we move the handling to a if one is gone, all are gone
rather than an (implicit) quid pro quo or even no effect.
Thanks: Daniel Kahn Gillmor for the suggestion

The output of gpg slightly changes in 2.1 which breaks the testcase, but
the real problem is that this branch introduces a new default keyring
format (which is called keybox) and mixing it with simple keyrings (the
previous default format) has various problems like failing in the keybox
to keyring import (#790665) or [older] gpgv versions not being able to
deal with keyboxes (and newer versions as well currently:
https://bugs.gnupg.org/gnupg/issue2025).
We fix this by being a bit more careful in who creates keyrings (aka: we
do it or we take a simple keyring as base) to ensure we always have a
keyring instead of a keybox. This way we can ensure that any version
combination of gpv/gpgv2 and gnupg/gnupg2 without doing explicit version
checks and use the same code for all of them.

There is an option to keep all targets (Packages, Sources, …) compressed
for a while now, but the all-or-nothing approach is a bit limited for
our purposes with additional targets as some of them are very big
(Contents) and rarely used in comparison, so keeping them compressed by
default can make sense, while others are still unpacked.
Most interesting is the copy-change maybe: Copy is used by the acquire
system as an uncompressor and it is hence expected that it returns the
hashes for the "output", not the input. Now, in the case of keeping a
file compressed, the output is never written to disk, but generated in
memory and we should still validated it, so for compressed files copy is
expected to return the hashes of the uncompressed file. We used to use
the config option to enable on-the-fly decompress in the method, but in
reality copy is never used in a way where it shouldn't decompress a
compressed file to get its hashes, so we can save us the trouble of
sending this information to the method and just do it always.

Limits which key(s) can be used to sign a repository. Not immensely useful
from a security perspective all by itself, but if the user has
additional measures in place to confine a repository (like pinning) an
attacker who gets the key for such a repository is limited to its
potential and can't use the key to sign its attacks for an other (maybe
less limited) repository… (yes, this is as weak as it sounds, but having
the capability might come in handy for implementing other stuff later).
|

These options could be set via configuration before, but the connection
to the actual sources is so strong that they should really be set in the
sources.list instead – especially as this can be done a lot more
specific rather than e.g. disabling Valid-Until for all sources at once.
Valid-Until-* names are chosen instead of the Min/Max-ValidTime as this
seems like a better name and their use in the wild is probably low
enough that this isn't going to confuse anyone if we have to names for
the same thing in different areas.
In the longrun, the config options should be removed, but for now
documentation hinting at the new options is good enough as these are the
kind of options you set once across many systems with different apt
versions, so the new way should work everywhere first before we
deprecate the old way.

indexRecords was used to parse the Release file – mostly the hashes –
while metaIndex deals with downloading the Release file, storing all
indexes coming from this release and … parsing the Release file, but
this time mostly for the other fields.
That wasn't a problem in metaIndex as this was done in the type specific
subclass, but indexRecords while allowing to override the parsing method
did expect by default a specific format.
APT isn't really supporting different types at the moment, but this is
a violation of the abstraction we have everywhere else and, which is the
actual reason for this merge: Options e.g. coming from the sources.list
come to metaIndex naturally, which needs to wrap them up and bring them
into indexRecords, so the acquire system is told about it as they don't
get to see the metaIndex, but they don't really belong in indexRecords
as this is just for storing data loaded from the Release file… the
result is a complete mess.
I am not saying it is a lot prettier after the merge, but at least
adding new options is now slightly easier and there is just one place
responsible for parsing the Release file. That can't hurt.
|
|
A specific trust state can be enforced via a sources.list option, but it
effects all entries handled by the same Release file, not just the entry
it was given on so we enforce acknowledgement of this by requiring the
same value to be (not) set on all such entries.
|
|
Having two different formats in the same file is very dirty and causes
external tools to fail hard trying to parse them. It is probably not a
good idea for them to parse them in the first place, but they do and we
shouldn't break them if there is a better way.
So we solve this issue for now by giving our deb822 format a new
filename extension ".sources" which unsupporting applications are likely
to ignore an can begin gradually moving forward rather than waiting for
the unknown applications to catch up.
Currently and for the forseeable future apt is going to support both
with the same feature set as documented in the manpage, with the
longtime plan of adopting the 'new' format as default, but that is a
long way to go and might get going more from having an easier time
setting options than from us pushing it explicitely.

We support arch= for a while, now we finally add lang= as well and as a
first simple way of controlling which targets to acquire also target=.
This asked for a redesign of the internal API of parsing and storing
information about 'deb' and 'deb-src' lines. As this API isn't visible
to the outside no damage done through.
Beside being a nice cleanup (= it actually does more in less lines) it
also provides us with a predictable order of architectures as provides
in the configuration rather than based on string sorting-order, so that
now the native architecture is parsed/displayed first. Observeable e.g.
in apt-get output.

It shouldn't be too common, but sometimes people have multiple mirrors
in the sources or otherwise repositories with the same content. Now that
we gracefully can handle multiple requests to the same URI, we can also
fold multiple requests with the same expected hashes into one. Note that
this isn't trying to find oppertunities for merging, but just merges if
it happens to encounter the oppertunity for it.
This is most obvious in the new testcase actually as it needs to delay
the action to give the acquire system enough time to figure out that
they can be merged.
|
|
Again, consistency is the main sellingpoint here, but this way it is now
also easier to explain that some files move through different stages and
lines are printed for them hence multiple times: That is a bit hard to
believe if the number is changing all the time, but now that it keeps
consistent.
|
|
All other methods call it, so they should follow along even if the work
they do afterwards is hardly breathtaking and usually results in a
URIDone pretty soon, but the acquire system tells the individual item
about this via a virtual method call, so even through none of our
existing items contains any critical code in these, maybe one day they
might. Consistency at least once…
Which is also why this has a good sideeffect: file: and cdrom: requests
appear now in the 'apt-get update' output. Finally - it never made sense
to hide them for me. Okay, I guess it made before the new hit behavior,
but now that you can actually see the difference in an update it makes
sense to see if a file: repository changed or not as well.
|
|
This is an unlikely event for indexes and co, but it can happen quiet
easily e.g. for changelogs where you want to get the changelogs for
multiple binary package(version)s which happen to all be built from a
single source.
The interesting part is that the Acquire system actually detected this
already and set the item requesting the URI again to StatDone - expect
that this is hardly sufficient: an Item must be Complete=true as well
to be considered truely done and that is only the tip of the ::Done
handling iceberg. So instead of this StatDone hack we allow QItems to be
owned by multiple items and notify all owners about everything now,
so that for the point of each item they got it downloaded just for them.
