Run parsedepends_test for two different native archs

2017-01-02T13:28:05Z

Run the test for kfreebsd-i386 and amd64 and pass "amd64" as an additional argument to the function. This tests that the argument is used and thus ParseDepends returns the amd64 results even on a different architecture like i386.

ParseDepends: Support passing the desired architecture

2017-01-02T13:27:52Z

This is useful for e.g. Britney, where the Build-Depends would have to be parsed for multiple architectures. With this change, the call can choose the architecture without having to mess with the config. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier Closes: #845969 (jak@d.o: made the code compile)

allow warning generation for non-whitelisted options

2016-12-31T17:24:12Z

The idea is simple: Each¹ Find*( call starts with a call check if the given option (with the requested type) exists in the whitelist. The whitelist is specified via our configure-index file so that we have a better chance at keeping it current. the whitelist is loaded via a special (undocumented for now) configuration stanza and if none is loaded the empty whitelist will make it so that no warnings are shown. Much needs to be done still, but that is as good a time as any to take a snapshot of the current state and release it into the wild given that it found some bugs already and has no practical effect on users. ¹ not all in this iteration, but many

fix minimum pkgs option for dpkg --recursive usage

2016-12-31T17:23:25Z

Interpreting a boolean as an int works just fine – it just hasn't the intended result – it isn't a serious problem through as the disabling of the usage of this dpkg calling style is just an "optimization"

apt-key: ignore gpg1 already imported secret key import failure

2016-12-31T02:50:06Z

On Travis and co the default gpg implementation is gpg1 which for some reason fails if a secret key which was already imported is imported again. We would prefer it to be a NOP like gpg2 handles it so we crudely check the error message. apt-key usually doesn't deal with secret keys – it only learned to do it for manual testing and the integration framework usage, so no public interface is effected.

use FindB instead of FindI for Debug::pkgAutoRemove

2016-12-31T01:29:21Z

Again no practical difference, but for consistency a boolean option should really be accessed via a boolean method rather than an int especially if you happen to try setting the option to "true" … Gbp-Dch: Ignore

avoid producing invalid options if repo has no host

2016-12-31T01:29:21Z

This can happen e.g. for file: repositories. There is no inherent problem with setting such values internally, but its bad style, forbidden in the manpage and could be annoying in the future. Gbp-Dch: Ignore

gets file location via FindFile instead of manual merge

2016-12-31T01:29:21Z

Unlikely to have any practical effect, but its more consistent to use the right methods instead of performing it slightly incorrect by hand. Gbp-Dch: Ignore

rename ServerMethod to BaseHttpMethod

2016-12-31T01:29:21Z

This 'method' is the abstract base for http and https and should as such be called out like this rather using an easily confused name. Gbp-Dch: Ignore
