json-based hooks for apt cli tools
See merge request apt-team/apt!10Introduce experimental new hooks for command-line tools2018-04-15T19:11:42ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2018-04-13T10:32:35Zurn: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.

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.

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.

tests: set debhelper compat 10 and R³ by default2018-02-19T14:56:09ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2018-01-27T01:15:35Zurn:sha1:7aaf9b2c63aa8bdd87de4c19dcf1742c686a1cc2
The testpackages hardly need debhelper at all, so any version would do,
and they build without root rights by definition, but declaring it
explicitly can't hurt and in the case of debhelper it would be sad if
our testcases break one day because the old compat level is removed.
