[ Martin Pitt ]
* debian/rules:
- Make DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt actually work by passing the right
CXXFLAGS.
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.{h,cc}:
- Add support for reading of gzipped files with the new "ReadOnlyGzip"
OpenMode. (Closes: #188407)
- Link against zlib (in apt-pkg/makefile) and add zlib build dependency.
- [ABI BREAK] This adds a new private member to FileFd, but its
initialization is in the public header file.
* configure.in:
- Check for zlib library and headers.
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc, apt-pkg/deb/debindexfile.cc,
apt-pkg/deb/debrecords.cc, apt-pkg/deb/debsrcrecords.h,
cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
- Open Packages, Sources, and Translations indexes in "ReadOnlyGzip" mode.
* apt-pkg/deb/debindexfile.cc:
- If we do not find uncompressed package/source/translation indexes, look
for gzip compressed ones.
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- If the Acquire::GzipIndexes option is true and we download a gzipped
index file, keep it as it is (and rename to .gz) instead of
uncompressing it.
* doc/apt.conf.5.xml:
- Document the new Acquire::GzipIndexes option.
* doc/po/apt-doc.pot, doc/po/de.po:
- German translation of new Acquire::GzipIndexes option.
* Add test/test-indexes.sh:
- Test behaviour of index retrieval and usage, in particular with
uncompressed and gzip compressed indexes.
* methods/gzip.cc: With FileFd now being able to read gzipped files, there
is no need for the gzip method any more to spawn an external gzip process.
Rewrite it to use FileFd directly, which makes the code a lot simpler, and
also using less memory and overhead.
