If 9b8034a9fd40b4d05075fda719e61f6eb4c45678 serves the Release files
from a partial mirror we will end up getting 404 for some of the
indexes. Instead of giving up, we will instead ignore our same
redirection mirror constrain and ask the redirection service as a
potential hashsum mismatch is better than keeping the certain 404 error.

If the server told us in a previous request that it isn't supporting
Ranges with bytes via an Accept-Ranges header missing bytes, we don't
try to formulate requests using Ranges.
|
|
It seems completely pointless from a server-POV to sent empty header
fields, so most of them don't do it (simply proven by this limitation
existing since day one) – but it is technically allowed by the RFC as
the surounding whitespaces are optional and Github seems to like sending
"X-Geo-Block-List:\r\n" since recently (bug reports in other http
clients indicate July) at least sometimes as the reporter claims to have
seen it on https only even through it can happen with both.

With cmake using BUILDDIRECTORY at this place is not only as wrong as it
was before, but it might not even work always copying the system
provided one which might or might not be current and hence fails tests
needing it to be current like ./test-apt-move-and-forget-manual-sections
We don't want to always use the one from the source directory through
either like in autopkgtests.

Doing a direct connect to an .onion address (if you don't happen to use
it as a local domain, which you shouldn't) is bound to fail and does
leak the information that you do use Tor and which hidden service you
wanted to connect to to a DNS server. Worse, if the DNS is poisoned and
actually resolves tricking a user into believing the setup would work
correctly…
This does block also the usage of wrappers like torsocks with apt, but
with native support available and advertised in the error message this
shouldn't really be an issue.

With b4450f1dd6bca537e60406b2383ab154a3e1485f we dropped what we
calculated here later on and now that we don't need it in the meantime
either we can just skip the busy work by default and expect dpkg to do
the right thing dropping also our little "last explicit configures"
removal trick introduced in b4450f1dd6bca537e60406b2383ab154a3e1485f.
This enables the last of a bunch of previously experimental options,
some of them existing still, but are very special and hence not really
worth documenting anymore (especially as it would need to be rewritten
now entirely) which is why the documentation is nearly completely
dropped.
The order of configuration stanzas in the simulation code changes
slightly as it isn't concerning itself with finding the 'right' order,
but any order is valid anyhow as long as the entire set happens in the
same call.
|
|
The user has to approve the removal of a crossgraded package as it might
be needed to remove it (temporarily) in the process, but in most cases
we can happily avoid it and let dpkg unpack over it skipping the
remove. This has some effects on progress reporting and how deal with
selections through which makes this a tiny bit complicated.
|

To prevent accidents like adding http-sources while using tor+http it
can make sense to allow disabling methods. It might even make sense to
allow "redirections" and adding "symlinked" methods via configuration.
This could e.g. allow using different options for certain sources by
adding and configuring a "virtual" new method which picks up the config
based on the name it was called with like e.g. http does if called as
tor+http.
|

Socks support is a requested feature in sofar that the internet is
actually believing Acquire::socks::Proxy would exist. It doesn't and
this commit isn't adding it as that isn't how our configuration works,
but it allows Acquire::http::Proxy="socks5h://…". The HTTPS method was
changed already to support socks proxies (all versions) via curl. This
commit implements only SOCKS5 (RFC1928) with no auth or pass&user auth
(RFC1929), but not GSSAPI which is required by the RFC. The 'h' in the
protocol name further indicates that DNS resolution is delegated to the
socks proxy rather than performed locally.
The implementation works and was tested with Tor as socks proxy for
which implementing socks5h only can actually be considered a feature.
Closes: 744934

The https method implemented for a long while now a hardcoded fallback
to the same options in http, which, while it works, is rather inflexible
if we want to allow the methods to use another name to change their
behavior slightly, like apt-transport-tor does to https – most of the
diff being s#https#tor#g which then fails to do the full circle
fallthrough tor -> https -> http for https sources. With this config
infrastructure this could be implemented now.
|
|
cURL which backs our https implementation can handle redirects on its
own, but by dealing with them on our own we gain finer control over which
redirections will be performed (we don't like https → http) and by whom
so that redirections to other hosts correctly spawn a new https method
dealing with these instead of letting the current one deal with it.
|
|
Having the detection handled in specific (http) workers means that a
redirection loop over different hostnames isn't detected. Its also not a
good idea have this implement in each method independently even if it
would work

If we want a package to be purged from the system tell dpkg in the
ordering (if it has to touch it explicitly) to remove it and cover the
purging of the config files at the end with a --purge --pending call.
That should help packages move conffiles around between packages
correctly even if the user is purging packages directly in big actions
like dist-upgrades involving many packages.
|
|
Telling dpkg early on that we are going to remove these packages later
helps it with auto-deconfiguration decisions and its another area where
a planner can ignore the nitty gritty details and let dpkg decide the
course of action if there are no special requirements.
|
|
dpkg decides certain things on its own based on selections and
especially if we want to call --pending on purge/remove actions, we need
to ensure a clean slate or otherwise we surprise the user by removing
packages we weren't allowed to remove by the user in this run (the
selection might be an overarching plan for the not-yet "future").
Ideally dpkg would have some kind of temporal selection interface for
this case, but it hasn't, so we make it temporal with the risk of
loosing state if we don't manage to restore them.
|
|
Having long commandlines split into two is a huge problem if it happens
and additionally if we want to introduce planners which perform less
micromanagment its a good idea to leave the details for dpkg to decide.
In practice this doesn't work yet unconditionally as a bug is hiding in
the ordering code of dpkg, but it works if apt imposes its ordering so
this commit allows for now at least to solve the first problem.
|
|
APT (usually) knows which package is essential or not, so we can avoid
passing this force flag to dpkg unconditionally if the user hasn't
chosen a non-default essential handling obscuring the information.

This early support seems a bit hacky, but it's a hard switch: The

afterwards. I don't really like that.

If another file in the transaction fails and hence dooms the transaction
we can end in a situation in which a -patched file (= rred writes the
result of the patching to it) remains in the partial/ directory.
The next apt call will perform the rred patching again and write its
result again to the -patched file, but instead of starting with an empty
file as intended it will override the content previously in the file
which has the same result if the new content happens to be longer than
the old content, but if it isn't parts of the old content remain in the
file which will pass verification as the new content written to it
matches the hashes and if the entire transaction passes the file will be
moved the lists/ directory where it might or might not trigger errors
depending on if the old content which remained forms a valid file
together with the new content.
This has no real security implications as no untrusted data is involved:
The old content consists of a base file which passed verification and a
bunch of patches which all passed multiple verifications as well, so the
old content isn't controllable by an attacker and the new one isn't
either (as the new content alone passes verification). So the best an
attacker can do is letting the user run into the same issue as in the
report.

If the sources file we want to edit doesn't exist yet GetLock will
create it with 640, which for a generic lockfile might be okay, but as
this is a sources file more relaxed permissions are in order – and
actually required as it wont be readable for unprivileged users causing
warnings/errors in apt calls.

The tests changes the sources.list and the modification time of this
file is considered while figuring out if the cache can be good. Usually
this isn't an issue, but in that case we have the cache generation
produce warnings which appear twice in this case.

The existing cleanup was happening only for packages which had a status
change (install -> uninstalled) which is the most frequent but no the
only case – you can e.g. set autobits explicitly with apt-mark.
This would leave stanzas in the states file declaring a package to be
manually installed – which is the default value for a package not listed
at all, so we can just as well drop it from the file.
|
|
Otherwise calls like "apt -q install" end up calling "aptautotest_apt_q"
instead of "aptautotest_apt_install"

We support installing ./foo.deb (and ./foo.dsc for source) for a while
now, but it can be a bit clunky to work with those directly if you e.g.
build packages locally in a 'central' build-area.
The changes files also include hashsums and can be signed, so this can
also be considered an enhancement in terms of security as a user "just"
has to verify the signature on the changes file then rather than
checking all deb files individually in these manual installation
procedures.

If a user explicitly requests the download of arch:all apt shouldn't get
in the way and perform its detection dance if arch:all packages are
(also) in arch:any files or not.
This e.g. allows setting arch=all on a source with such a field (or one
which doesn't support all at all, but has the arch:all files like Debian
itself ATM) to get only the arch:all packages from there instead of
behaving like a no-op.

Theoretically it should be enough to change the Dir setting and have apt
pick the dpkg/status file from that. Also, it should be consistently
effected by RootDir. Both wasn't really the case through, so a user had
to explicitly set it too (or ignore it and have or not have expected
sideeffects caused by it).
This commit tries to guess better the location of the dpkg/status file
by setting dir::state::status to a naive "../dpkg/status", just that
this setting would be interpreted as relative to the CWD and not
relative to the dir::state directory. Also, the status file isn't really
relative to the state files apt has in /var/lib/apt/ as evident if we
consider that apt/ could be a symlink to someplace else and "../dpkg"
not effected by it, so what we do here is an explicit replace on apt/
– similar to how we create directories if it ends in apt/ – with dpkg/.
As this is a change it has the potential to cause regressions in so far
as the dpkg/status file of the "host" system is no longer used if you
set a "chroot" system via the Dir setting – but that tends to be
intended and causes people to painfully figure out that they had to set
this explicitly before, so that it now works more in terms of how the
other Dir settings work (aka "as expected"). If using the host status
file is really intended it is in fact easier to set this explicitely
compared to setting the new "magic" location explicitely.

Most tests are either multiarch, do not care for the specific
architecture or do not interact with dpkg, so really effect by this is
only test-external-installation-planner-protocol, but its a general
issue that while APT can be told to treat any architecture as native
dpkg has the native architecture hardcoded so if we run tests we must
make sure that dpkg knows about the architecture we will treat as
"native" in apt as otherwise dpkg will refuse to install packages from
such an architecture.
This reverts f883d2c3675eae2700e4cd1532c1a236cae69a4e as it complicates
the test slightly for no practical gain after the generic fix.

If we have files in partial/ from a previous invocation or similar such
those could be symlinks created by file:// sources. The code is
expecting only real files through and happily changes owner,
modification times and permission on the file the symlink points to
which tend to be files we have no business in touching in this way.
Permissions of symlinks shouldn't be changed, changing owner is usually
pointless to, but just to be sure we pick the easy way out and use
lchown, check for symlinks before chmod/utimes.

The test makes heavy use of disabling compression types which are
usually available some way or another like xz which is how the EIPP
logs are compressed by default. Instead of changing this test to change
the filename according to the compression we want to test we just
disable EIPP logging for this test as that is easier and has the same
practical effect.

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.

apt-key needs gnupg for most of its operations, but depending on it
isn't very efficient as apt-key is hardly used by users – and scripts
shouldn't use it to begin with as it is just a silly wrapper. To draw
more attention on the fact that e.g. 'apt-key add' should not be used in
favor of "just" dropping a keyring file into the trusted.gpg.d
directory this commit implements the display of warnings.

As the volatile sources are parsed last they were sorted behind the
dpkg/status file and hence are treated as a downgrade, which isn't
really what you want to happen as from a user POV its an upgrade.
|
|
If we have a (e.g. locally built) deb file installed and do try to
install it again apt complained about this being a downgrade, but it
wasn't as it is the very same version… it was just confused into not
merging the versions together which looks like a downgrade then.
The same size assumption is usually good, but given that volatile files
are parsed last (even after the status file) the base assumption no
longer holds, but is easy to adept without actually changing anything in
practice.
|
|
Traditionally all providers are protected providing something as apt
can't know which of them is actually really providing the functionality
for the user ensuring that we don't propose the removal of used stuff,
but that is of course also keeping stuff around which could be removed.
That can cause the collection of multiple old providers until the
provided package is itself no longer needed (e.g. out-of-tree kernel
modules). We combat this by marking providers only from the newest
source package version so that old providers built by older versions of
the same source package can be garbage collected.
