apt/apt-private, branch 1.7.0_alpha0 Debians commandline package manager https://git.kalnischkies.de/apt/atom?h=1.7.0_alpha0 2018-04-15T19:11:42Z Introduce experimental new hooks for command-line tools 2018-04-15T19:11:42Z Julian Andres Klode julian.klode@canonical.com 2018-04-13T10:32:35Z urn:sha1:e9796b9c21ee7d8e8f5d6e2a24db43fc4368b557 This allows third-party package managers like snap or flatpak to hook in and suggest alternatives if packages could not be found, for example. This is still highly experimental and the protocol might change in future versions. apt-private: Collect not found packages in CacheSetHelperAPTGet 2018-04-13T10:30:53Z Julian Andres Klode julian.klode@canonical.com 2018-04-13T10:30:53Z urn:sha1:03cc48f6c6591d762c27f9b5c8627b267a7158e2 Collecting the packages we could not find allows us to pass them to other places. restore gcc visibility=hidden for apt-private 2018-02-19T14:56:09Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2018-01-27T01:11:20Z urn:sha1:6e2877548b114729b69b817b872419edde732d0f This setting was lost in the transition to cmake. The private library has no public users and hence the default visibility of symbols changed early to hidden – something which should eventually be done for the public libraries as well, but one step at the time. allow a method to request auxiliary files 2018-01-03T17:55:41Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2017-08-12T14:21:13Z urn:sha1:ef9677831f62a1554a888ebc7b162517d7881116 If a method needs a file to operate like e.g. mirror needs to get a list of mirrors before it can redirect the the actual requests to them. That could easily be solved by moving the logic into libapt directly, but by allowing a method to request other methods to do something we can keep this logic contained in the method and allow e.g. also methods which perform binary patching or similar things. Previously they would need to implement their own acquire system inside the existing one which in all likelyhood will not support the same features and methods nor operate with similar security compared to what we have already running 'above' the requesting method. That said, to avoid methods producing conflicts with "proper" files we are downloading a new directory is introduced to keep the auxiliary files in. [The message magic number 351 is a tribute to the german Grundgesetz article 35 paragraph 1 which defines that all authorities of the state(s) help each other on request.] avoid some useless casts reported by -Wuseless-cast 2017-12-13T22:53:41Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2017-12-13T20:39:16Z urn:sha1:1adcf56bec7d2127d83aa423916639740fe8e586 The casts are useless, but the reports show some where we can actually improve the code by replacing them with better alternatives like converting whatever int type into a string instead of casting to a specific one which might in the future be too small. Reported-By: gcc -Wuseless-cast convert various c-style casts to C++-style 2017-12-13T22:53:34Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2017-12-13T12:26:38Z urn:sha1:957381a0d26ec11a172ebfc64f892d1b31f0c193 gcc was warning about ignored type qualifiers for all of them due to the last 'const', so dropping that and converting to static_cast in the process removes the here harmless warning to avoid hidden real issues in them later on.

Also use FindULL for checking if the size tags is valid 2017-10-28T09:54:33Z Julian Andres Klode jak@debian.org 2017-10-28T09:45:28Z urn:sha1:197a813cc87f50262c6faac68916c3e9a60e4d5c It used FindI() > 0, but if it is too big, FindI() would cause an error "Cannot convert %s to integer: out of range", so let's also use FindULL() here. Gbp-Dch: ignore Prevent overflow in Installed-Size (and Size) in apt show 2017-10-28T09:35:39Z Julian Andres Klode jak@debian.org 2017-10-28T08:59:55Z urn:sha1:a6375472a41af7f1521369d0c22a858d7051ab18 Installed-Size for linux-image-4.13.0-1-amd64-dbg and friends are larger than 4 GB, but read as a signed integer - that's fine so far, as the value is in KB, but it's multiplied with 1024 which overflows. So let's read it as unsigned long long instead. While we're at it, also use unsigned long long for Size, in case that is bigger than 2 GB.
