Use std::to_string() for HashStringList::FileSize() getter

2019-02-04T14:29:09Z

This slightly improves performance, as std::to_string() (as in gcc's libstdc++) avoids a heap allocation. This is surprisingly performance critical code, so we might want to improve things further in 1.9 by manually calculating the string - that would also get rid of issues with locales changing string formatting, if any.

Detect function multiversioning and sse4.2/crc32, enables i386

2019-02-04T14:21:32Z

This fixes the build on kfreebsd-amd64, and due to the detection of sse4.2, should also enable the sse4.2 on i386.

gpgv: Use buffered writes for splitting clearsigned files

2019-02-04T13:43:16Z

This is safe here, as the code ensures that the file is flushed before it is being used. The next series should probably make GetTempFile() buffer writes by default.

A pin of -32768 overrides any other, disables repo See merge request apt-team/apt!40

Add a Packages-Require-Authorization Release file field

2019-02-01T16:52:03Z

This new field allows a repository to declare that access to packages requires authorization. The current implementation will set the pin to -32768 if no authorization has been provided in the auth.conf(.d) files. This implementation is suboptimal in two aspects: (1) A repository should behave more like NotSource repositories (2) We only have the host name for the repository, we cannot use paths yet. - We can fix those after an ABI break. The code also adds a check to acquire-item.cc to not use the specified repository as a download source, mimicking NotSource.

Introduce experimental 'never' pinning for sources

2019-02-01T16:51:35Z

This allows disabling a repository by pinning it to 'never', which is internally translated to a value of -32768 (or whatever the minimum of short is). This overrides any other pin for that repository. It can be used to make sure certain sources are never used; for example, in unattended-upgrades. To prevent semantic changes to existing files, we substitute min + 1 for every pin-priority: . This is a temporary solution, as we are waiting for an ABI break. To add pins with that value, the special Pin-Priority "never" may be used for now. It's unclear if that will persist, or if the interface will change eventually.
