aptwebserver: Refuse client immediately on TLS handshake

2026-06-10T13:07:30Z

We implement a HTTP-only server here (that is wrapped by stunnel for HTTPS support), so if a TLS handshake reaches us it is always wrong and we can just close the connection immediately instead of accepting it and letting the client run into a timeout as we will never receive the message(s) we expect. This happens e.g. with browsers like Firefox that opportunistically try https first (even if you ask for http and specify a port).

Drop usage of macro APT_OVERRIDE for simple override

2025-01-05T22:16:08Z

We were rather inconsistent in using it and as our public headers contain deduction guides (a c++17 feature) it seems silly to try to hide a c++11 feature in a macro, so lets stop this charade and drop the macro and while we are changing all these lines lets apply [[nodiscard]] (another c++17 feature) and other suggestions from clang-tidy and formatting for a little more consistency.

Use sq in the test suite, remove apt-key

2024-12-19T22:41:01Z

Remove the test case for MD5 and expired signatures, as we can't create them (can't set signing digest, and can't set signature expiry). Tests for them have been added to test-method-gpgv instead. We override sq in a function with cert-store and key-store set to none. This supports both sq 0.40 and sq 1.0.

Stop installing apt-key, make it a test suite helper

http: add test for Retry-After handling

2024-11-18T12:44:49Z

When enabling Acquire::Retries::HandleRetryAfter, the value of the Retry-After http header is honored and the retry is not executed earlier than this point in time (except if that is longer than the max delay time). The added test checks if the request is delayed at least by the requested time. Signed-off-by: Felix Moessbauer

Fix keeping back removals of obsolete packages

2024-11-11T11:30:01Z

ResolveByKeepInternal() inadvertently considered packages that were marked for removals as not being possible to keep back, but that's not true, all they need is to have a currently installed version. The test case is a bit awkward to construct because our upgrade code doesn't get into a place where this happens that we know off. Or maybe it does with phased upgrades, but here we simplify this by using a helper binary that dumps state, marks for removal, and then calls ResolveByKeep and checks the removal is undone.
