reinstalling local deb file is no downgrade

2016-07-01T11:36:40Z

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.

Fix buffer overflow in debListParser::VersionHash()

2016-06-28T20:15:50Z

If a package file is formatted in a way that that no space follows a deprecated "<", we would reformat it to "<=" and increase the length of the output by 1, which can break. Under normal circumstances with "<=" this should not be an issue. Closes: #828812

get group again after potential remap in Source: parse

2016-03-06T14:00:33Z

Mysteriously segfaults only on i386 for me, but at least one reporter had the same behavior and it makes sense that this is the problem as the parsing of Source: was fixed in 1.2.2 – before the not remapped group was not used. We don't use our usual Dynamic<> trick here as we don't have it in the parser. Its a bit of a layer violation to do this parsing here, but its how it is always was… Until next time with this lovely kind of problem. Closes: 812251 Thanks: Francesco Poli and Marc Haber for testdata.

convert Version() and Architecture() to APT::StringView

2016-01-26T22:18:05Z

Part of hidden classes, so conversion is abi-free. Git-Dch: Ignore

remove unused Description methods in listparsers

2016-01-26T20:58:57Z

These virtual methods are implemented in hidden classes, so we can drop them without breaking the ABI. Git-Dch: Ignore

parse version correctly from binary Source field

2016-01-26T18:17:11Z

In commit a221efc331693f8905da870141756c892911c433 I promoted the source package name and version to the binary cache for faster access by e.g. EDSP, but due to changing the interpretation length to soon we always ignored the version part of the Source field, so that packages ended up having the binary version as source version – which while usually just fine it is wrong for binary rebuilds. Closes: 812492

fix M-A:foreign provides creation for unknown archs

2016-01-14T22:08:02Z

Architectures for packages which do not belong to the native nor a foreign architecture (dubbed barbarian for now) which are marked M-A:foreign still provide in their own architecture even if not for others. Also, other M-A:foreign (and allowed) packages provide in these barbarian architectures.
