This allows rewritting the code by failing earlier instead of trying to keep going which makes the diff a bit hard to follow but should help simplifying reasoning about it.

This commit changes the silent ignoring to warnings for now to get an impression on how widespread unintended unsigned parts are, but eventually we want to turn these into hard errors. 2015-12-19T22:04:34Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-12-15T16:20:26Z urn:sha1:3abb6a6a1e485b3bc899b64b0a1b7dc2db25a9c2 This doesn't allow all tests to run cleanly, but it at least allows to write tests which could run successfully in such environments.

This way arch:all data can be shared instead of duplicated for each architecture requiring the user to download the same information again and again. There is one problem however: In Debian there is already a binary-all/ Packages file, but the binary-any files still include arch:all packages, so that downloading this file now would be a waste of time, bandwidth and diskspace. We therefore need a way to decide if it makes sense to download the all file for Packages in Debian or not. The obvious answer would be a special flag in the Release file indicating this, which would need to default to 'no' and every reasonable repository would override it to 'yes' in a few years time, but the flag would be there "forever". Looking closer at a Release file we see the field "Architectures", which doesn't include 'all' at the moment. With the idea outlined above that 'all' is a "proper" architecture now, we interpret this field as being authoritative in declaring which architectures are supported by this repository. If it says 'all', apt will try to get all, if not it will be skipped. This gives us another interesting feature: If I configure a source to download armel and mips, but it declares it supports only armel apt will now print a notice saying as much. Previously this was a very cryptic failure. If on the other hand the repository supports mips, too, but for some reason doesn't ship mips packages at the moment, this 'missing' file is silently ignored (= that is the same as the repository including an empty file). The Architectures field isn't mandatory through, so if it isn't there, we assume that every architecture is supported by this repository, which skips the arch:all if not listed in the release file. 2015-09-15T08:16:09Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-09-14T22:33:12Z urn:sha1:6c0765c096ffb4df14169236c865bbb2b10974ae This allows running tests in parallel.

Important to note here is that for the file transport Path is pretty important as there is no Host which would be displayed by Site, which always resulted in "interesting" unspecific errors for "file:". Adding a 'middle' ground between the two which does show the Path but potentially modifies it (it strips a pending / at the end if existing) solves this "file:" issue, syncs the output and in the end helps to identify which file is meant exactly in progress output and co as a single site can have multiple repositories in different paths. 2015-06-09T10:57:36Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-06-08T13:22:01Z urn:sha1:8d041b4f4f353079268039dcbfd8b5e575196b66 If we have a file on disk and the hashes are the same in the new Release file and the old one we have on disk we know that if we ask the server for the file, we will at best get an IMS hit – at worse the server doesn't support this and sends us the (unchanged) file and we have to run all our checks on it again for nothing. So, we can save ourselves (and the servers) some unneeded requests if we figure this out on our own. 2015-03-16T17:01:54Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-03-09T23:59:44Z urn:sha1:25b86db159fbc3c043628e285c0c1ef24dec2c6e We use test{success,failure} now all over the place in the framework, so its only consequencial to do this in the situations in which we test for a specific output as well.
