drop unused/unimplemented & hidden LoadReleaseInfo

2017-09-09T15:22:11Z

The relevant calling code as well as the implementation for the deb system was removed 2 years ago with the refactoring of release information storage (b07aeb1a6e24825e534167a737043441e871de9f). This commit removes the the unused remains of this change with no practical effect on anybody (expect codesize) as the methods were declared as hidden and hence only libapt could have called it.

Reformat and sort all includes with clang-format

2017-07-12T11:57:51Z

This makes it easier to see which headers includes what. The changes were done by running git grep -l '#\s*include' \ | grep -E '.(cc|h)$' \ | xargs sed -i -E 's/(^\s*)#(\s*)include/\1#\2 include/' To modify all include lines by adding a space, and then running ./git-clang-format.sh.

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)

Do not use MD5SumValue for Description_md5()

2016-11-22T21:58:33Z

Our profile says we spend about 5% of the time transforming the hex digits into the binary format used by HashsumValue, all for comparing them against the other strings. That makes no sense at all. According to callgrind, this reduces the overall instruction count from 5,3 billion to 5 billion in my example, which roughly matches the 5%.

debListParser: Convert to use pkgTagSection::Key-based lookup

2016-11-22T21:57:46Z

This basically gets rid of 40-50% of the hash table lookups, making things a bit faster that way, and the profiles look far cleaner.

add hidden config to set packages as Essential/Important

2016-11-11T22:40:39Z

You can pretty much achieve the same with a local dummy package if you want to, but libapt has an inbuilt setting for essential: "apt" which can be overridden with this option as well – it could be helpful in quick tests and what not so adding this alternative shouldn't really hurt much. We aren't going to document them much through as care must be taken in regards to the binary caches as they aren't invalidated by config options alone, so the effects of old settings could still be in them, similar to the other already existing pkgCacheGen option(s). Closes: 767891 Thanks: Anthony Towns for initial patch

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
