From f52c1ce9b31befb71016a20759b96b4946034fcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Kalnischkies Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 15:14:52 +0200 Subject: Allow apt to run if no dpkg/status file exists Not having a dpkg/status file used to be a hard error which from a boostrap perspective is suspect as in the beginning, there is no status so you would need to touch it into existence. We make a difference between factual non-existence and inaccessibility to catch mistakes in which the file is not readable for some reason, the testcase test-bug-254770-segfault-if-cache-not-buildable is an example of this. Note that apt has already figured out at this point that this is a Debian-like system which should have a dpkg/status file. This change does not effect the auto-detection and is not supposed to. --- test/integration/test-apt-cli-update | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'test/integration/test-apt-cli-update') diff --git a/test/integration/test-apt-cli-update b/test/integration/test-apt-cli-update index cc8d051d2..810221510 100755 --- a/test/integration/test-apt-cli-update +++ b/test/integration/test-apt-cli-update @@ -8,7 +8,6 @@ setupenvironment configarchitecture "i386" insertpackage 'unstable' 'foo' 'all' '2.0' -cp rootdir/var/lib/dpkg/status dpkg.status insertinstalledpackage 'foo' 'all' '1.0' setupaptarchive --no-update @@ -18,6 +17,6 @@ testfailuremsg 'E: The update command takes no arguments' apt update arguments testempty apt update -qq -o pkgCacheFile::Generate=false testsuccessequal "1 package can be upgraded.
