* | Add support for /etc/apt/auth.conf.d/*.conf (netrcparts)Julian Andres Klode2018-12-042-1/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | This allows us to install matching auth files for sources.list.d files, for example; very useful. This converts aptmethod's authfd from one FileFd to a vector of pointers to FileFd, as FileFd cannot be copied, and move operators are hard.
* Allow setting Referer header for http methodDavid Kalnischkies2018-11-251-0/+1
| | | | | | Not needed for common interactions, but for some download-file interactions it could be useful to set a specific referer as some servers do not serve requested files otherwise.

| * Support multiple keyrings in sources.list Signed-ByDavid Kalnischkies2018-09-111-12/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A user can specify multiple fingerprints for a while now, so its seems counter-intuitive to support only one keyring, especially if this isn't really checked or enforced and while unlikely mixtures of both should work properly, too, instead of a kinda random behaviour.

* Lower default timeout from 120s to 30sJulian Andres Klode2018-05-241-3/+3
| | | | | 120s is an insanely high default time out, lower it to 30s to make things a bit nicer.
* use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost as default Tor proxyDavid Kalnischkies2018-05-1112-27/+27
| | | | | | This shouldn't make a practical difference for most people, but for edge cases it avoids DNS lookups and additionally prevents us from perfoming unneeded SRV requests, too.
* po: Drop boilerplate in initial commentsDavid Kalnischkies2018-05-101-2/+1
| | | | | | | | The boilerplate stems from automatic processing of these files as most (with the exception of po/nl.po) are one-off (partial) translations from years past. Gbp-Dch: Ignore

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 futureJulian Andres Klode2018-02-193-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 auxfilesDavid Kalnischkies2018-02-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Introduce inrelease-path option for sources.listJulian Andres Klode2018-01-171-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow specifying an alternative path to the InRelease file, so you can have multiple versions of a repository, for example. Enabling this option disables fallback to Release and Release.gpg, so setting it to InRelease can be used to ensure that only that will be tried. We add two test cases: One for checking that it works, and another for checking that the fallback does not happen. Closes: #886745

| | | | | | | | The appended "partial" should not be translated, but some translations got this wrong and now that there is also "auxfiles" we can just fix that problem by hiding these untranslatables from the translators. Gbp-Dch: Ignore
