See merge request apt-team/apt!8zstd: Implement support for multi-frame files2018-04-13T21:15:06ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-03-09T14:15:27Zurn:sha1:7cf73b7a1e4f127098cae5b8593cd1d0c675e4a4
This implements support for multi frame files while keeping
error checking for unexpected EOF working correctly. Files
with multiple frames are generated by pzstd, for example.
Implement compression level handling for zstd2018-04-13T21:15:06ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-03-08T13:38:58Zurn:sha1:9dfbfb24350b1d6b2f48ce66df8873c072f34a06
This is a simplified variant of the code for xz, adapted to support
multiple digit integers.

Bump cache major version to allow different 1.5 and 1.6 updates2018-03-19T13:56:31ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-03-19T13:56:31Zurn:sha1:af7c9811b0b2e9215e31a2a9ae4962cbe215206a
Shipping 1.6 with major 12 would not allow us to update 1.5.y
in a different way than 1.6.y if we have to without resorting
to minor version hacks. Let's just bump the major instead.
Use https for Ubuntu changelogs2018-03-15T10:14:04ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-03-15T10:14:04Zurn:sha1:412fff10af76ff8a77cee3fe10fb1ba8a91e860b
We just enabled https on changelogs.ubuntu.com, let's use it.
apt-pkg: Add support for zstd2018-03-12T07:56:59ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-03-08T08:33:39Zurn:sha1:4de4200ec2717e777bbf99ed82d1b4344f078ec2
zstd is a compression algorithm developed by facebook. At level 19,
it is about 6% worse in size than xz -6, but decompression is multiple
times faster, saving about 40% install time, especially with eatmydata
on cloud instances.
Merge branch 'pu/not-valid-before' into 'master'2018-02-19T15:06:06ZJulian Andres Klodejak@debian.org2018-02-19T15:06:06Zurn:sha1:928ecff984be22632c27a69e072741e74491292c
Check that Date of Release file is not in the future
See merge request apt-team/apt!3Check that Date of Release file is not in the future2018-02-19T15:05:01ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-01-29T15:15:41Zurn:sha1:9e5899cac1a6367e3769af52a724821880e538f6
By restricting the Date field to be in the past, an attacker cannot
just create a repository from the future that would be accepted as
a valid update for a repository.
This check can be disabled by Acquire::Check-Date set to false. This
will also disable Check-Valid-Until and any future date related checking,
if any - the option means: "my computers date cannot be trusted."
Modify the tests to allow repositories to be up to 10 hours in the
future, so we can keep using hours there to simulate time changes.
ensure correct file permissions for auxfiles2018-02-19T14:56:09ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2018-02-02T18:14:09Zurn:sha1:b3e7a16265e7c6c3b6892b9ec8a787d692ced6e6
The interesting takeaway here is perhaps that 'chmod +w' is effected by
the umask – obvious in hindsight of course. The usual setup helps with
hiding that applying that recursively on all directories (and files)
isn't correct. Ensuring files will not be stored with the wrong
permissions even if in strange umask contexts is trivial in comparison.
Fixing the test also highlighted that it wasn't bulletproof as apt will
automatically fix the permissions of the directories it works with, so
for this test we actually need to introduce a shortcut in the code.
