Restore dpkg::chroot-directory functionality

2021-06-10T17:25:17Z

If we call dpkg inside a chroot we have to ensure that the temporary directory we construct to call dpkg --recursive is inside the chroot and that we strip the path to the chroot from the directory name we pass to dpkg. Note that the added test succeeds before and (hopefully) after as we can't really chroot here or fiddle with the needed settings as we are already setting up apt to work with a quasi-chroot. The test perhaps helps in ensuring we don't break it too much in the future though. (Broken five years (and one day) ago this seems to have an immense user base at the moment, but it might in the future via mmdebstrap) References: f495992428a396e0f98886c9a761a804aa161c68 Reported-By: Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues on IRC Tested-By: Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues

Store size from volatile sources for already installed versions

2021-06-10T10:58:24Z

Volatile sources are parsed after the status file, so if we have a version already installed the size information is not stored, so that a reinstall of said version is refused claiming a broken repository. References: 1412cf51403286e9c040f9f86fd4d8306e62aff2

No URL decode and quoting support for Files in Sources

2021-06-04T14:45:06Z

The code exists since ever, but no other client supports this and the specification like debian-policy isn't asking for this either. What it does do is breaking than all others continue working through: If the filename includes in fact URI encoded bits (hopefully no quotes) which is rather unlikely, but none the less possible.

Allow superfluous commas in build-dependency lines

2021-04-25T10:02:19Z

This code can interact with handwritten files who can have unneeded commas for writing easy. As dpkg allows it, we should do as well. Reported-By: Arnaud Ferraris References: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/03/msg00101.html

Streamline or-group closing after other arch-specific package

2021-04-25T09:45:20Z

The comment and code are a bit too roundabout about what they actually try to do, so lets just set that straight as this is really just about a very specific case and doesn't deserve a general resetting. Gbp-Dch: Ignore

Do not pass --force-remove-protected with --auto-deconfigure

2021-04-21T09:49:50Z

dpkg 1.20.8 no longer requires this.

Merge the three RAII vectors managing args lifetime

2021-03-09T12:44:30Z

Having three different vectors littered over the method to manage various parts of the lifetime of the argument vector we are creating is a bit dangerous as it means a simple code change could result in a desync of these three, so by moving the functionality of them all into a wrapper class should prevent us from making such mistakes.

Handle multi-arch pkgnames for dpkg call via RAII

Use RAII to clean up tmp dir for dpkg recursive install

One less thing to remember to do in all branches.
