policy: Get rid of old (pre-1.1) GetCandidateVer algorithm2016-04-25T19:38:09ZJulian Andres Klodejak@debian.org2016-04-25T14:07:28Zurn:sha1:71180b9889046e30b63d70882c2381d6e3e9763f
Bye bye old friend. You're in one Ubuntu LTS release for compat
testing, now we do not need you anymore.
restore pinning to min/max value of short2016-04-25T14:30:43ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2016-04-25T14:30:43Zurn:sha1:fd2e438b24f4ce153ee35a691ae5bcb7eb28cc98
Broken in the previous commit (69cea1ef2cfda3c4da79fd756a8edaf2be26998e).
Adding a test and a comment to avoid future embarrassment.

give rc-status packages a pin of -12016-04-25T13:35:52ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2016-04-25T12:36:56Zurn:sha1:69cea1ef2cfda3c4da79fd756a8edaf2be26998e
It would previously return a pin of 0, which is an invalid value, but
the intend is that versions which are only in the dpkg/status file can't
be selected for installation (= can't be a candidate) which is what a
negative pin assures.
This helps with the communication to EDSP solvers as they neither know
about the rc-state (yet) nor that they shouldn't choose this version.
Ideally they shouldn't be told about such versions at all as there is
nothing to be solved here, but we will get there eventually.
properly parse comments in apt_preferences and deb822-style sources2016-01-02T15:20:01ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2016-01-02T12:27:02Zurn:sha1:f6459e646f6fa45c34d1f13f37173ea4b92ffd5f
apt_preferences and deb822-style sources used the specialized class
pkgUserTagSection to deal with comments before/after a given stanza, but
it couldn't deal with comments in the stanza at all.
codesearch suggests that nobody else does and a vastely superior way of
working with potentially commented files is implemented now, so we can
officially discourage the use of the old incomplete hack class.

provide public interface to hold/unhold packages2015-11-04T17:04:00ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2015-09-25T09:25:25Zurn:sha1:b49068c566d749130e023536d54588c948c16edf
We had this code lying around in apt-mark for a while now, but other
frontends need this (and similar) functionality as well, so its high
time that we provide a public interface in libapt for this stuff.
avoid using global PendingError to avoid failing too often too soon2015-09-14T13:22:18ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2015-09-10T17:00:51Zurn:sha1:95278287f4e1eeaf5d96749d6fc9bfc53fb400d0
Our error reporting is historically grown into some kind of mess.
A while ago I implemented stacking for the global error which is used in
this commit now to wrap calls to functions which do not report (all)
errors via return, so that only failures in those calls cause a failure
to propergate down the chain rather than failing if anything
(potentially totally unrelated) has failed at some point in the past.
This way we can avoid stopping the entire acquire process just because a
single source produced an error for example. It also means that after
the acquire process the cache is generated – even if the acquire
process had failures – as we still have the old good data around we can and
should generate a cache for (again).
There are probably more instances of this hiding, but all these looked
like the easiest to work with and fix with reasonable (aka net-positive)
effects.
implement autobit and pinning in EDSP solver 'apt'2015-09-14T13:22:18ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2015-09-08T20:14:11Zurn:sha1:188a6fcf4f13df1fd362a0aff27a23493ddd1ec5
The parser creates a preferences as well as an extended states file
based on the EDSP scenario file, which isn't the most efficient way of
dealing with this as thes text files have to be parsed again by another
layer of the code, but it needs the least changes and works good enough
for now. The 'apt' solver is in the end just a test solver like dump.
