apt (0.9.6) unstable; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
- fix regression from 0.9.3 which dumped the main configuration
_config instead of the cdrom settings (Cnf) as identified and
tested by Milan Kupcevic, thanks! (Closes: #674100)
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- do not show 'list of broken packages' header if no package
is broken as it happens e.g. for external resolver errors
- print URIs for all changelogs in case of --print-uris,
thanks to Daniel Hartwig for the patch! (Closes: #674897)
- show 'bzr branch' as 'bzr get' is deprecated (LP: #1011032)
- check build-dep candidate if install is forbidden
* debian/apt-utils.links:
- the internal resolver 'apt' is now directly installed in
/usr/lib/apt/solvers, so don't instruct dh to create a broken link
* doc/apt-verbatim.ent:
- APT doesn't belong to the product 'Linux', so use 'APT' instead
as after all APT is a big suite of applications
* doc/examples/sources.list:
- use the codename instead of 'stable' in the examples sources.list
as we do in the manpage and as the debian-installer does
* doc/apt-get.8.xml:

- default to putting the Contents-* files below $(SECTION) as apt-file
expects them there - thanks Martin-Éric Racine! (Closes: #675827)
* apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
- set pkgCacheGen::Essential to "all" again (Closes: #675449)
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
- force install only for one essential package out of a group
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- if APT::Languages=none save "none" in allCodes so that the detected
configuration is cached as intended (Closes: #674690, LP: #1004947)
* apt-pkg/cacheiterators.h:
- add an IsMultiArchImplicit() method for Dep- and PrvIterator
[ Justin B Rye ]
* doc/apt-cdrom.8.xml:
- replace CDROM with the proper CD-ROM in text
- correct disc vs. disk issues
* doc/apt-extracttemplates.1.xml:
- debconf is not DebConf
* doc/apt-get.8.xml:
- move dselect-upgrade below dist-upgrade
- review and fix spelling issues
* doc/apt-ftparchive.8.xml, doc/apt-config.8.xml,

- do not hardcode /etc but use Dir::Etc instead
[ Robert Luberda ]

[ Thibaut Girka ]
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- complain correctly about :any build-dep on M-A:none packages
* apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
- add support for arch-specific qualifiers in dependencies
apt (0.9.5.1) unstable; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- dup() given compressed fd in OpenDescriptor if AutoClose
is disabled as otherwise gzclose() and co will close it
* doc/*.xml:
- mark even more stuff as untranslateable and improve the
markup here and there (no real text change)
- use docbook DTD 4.5 instead of 4.2 to have valid docs
[ Justin B Rye ]
* doc/*.xml:
- remove 'GNU/Linux' from 'Debian systems' strings as Debian
has more systems than just GNU/Linux nowadays
* doc/apt-cache.8.xml:
- fix a typo as well as adding missing literal markup

apt (0.9.5) unstable; urgency=low
[ Chris Leick ]
* proofreading of the manpage pot
* German manpage translation update (Closes: #673294)
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* buildlib/podomain.mak:
- ensure that all sources end up in the srclist so that we don't
forget to extract half of the translation strings
* buildlib/inttypes.h.in:
- remove inttypes.h compatibility as providing such a c99 types
compatibility conflicts with the usage of c99 type long long
* apt-pkg/contrib/mmap.cc:
- have a dummy SyncToFd around in case of ReadOnly access to a
compressed file as we otherwise on Close() do not delete[] the
char buffer but munmap() it… (Closes: #673815)
* debian/control:
- moving debiandoc-sgml to Build-Depends-Indep was one step too much
for the buildds as we still build two sgml files in arch:any
* debian/rules:
- move internal-solver as 'apt' to his friend dump-solver in
/usr/lib/apt/solvers to avoid writing a manpage for it
apt (0.9.4) unstable; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* methods/http.cc:
- after many years of pointless discussions disable http/1.1 pipelining
by default as many webservers and proxies seem to be unable to conform
to specification must's (rfc2616 section 8.1.2.2) (LP: #996151)
- add spaces around PACKAGE_VERSION to fix FTBFS with -std=c++11
* apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
- make IsDuplicatedDescription static so that it is really private
as we don't need a symbol for it as it is not in a header
* Makefile, buildlib/*.mak:
- reshuffle dependencies so that parallel building seems to work
- separate manpages from the rest of the doc building
* prepare-release:
- apt-inst version isn't apt versions, so don't override variable
* debian/rules:
- apt-utils packages manpages, so it should depend on build-doc
- make apt and apt-utils packages depend on manpages instead of full doc
* debian/control:
- move doxygen and debiandoc-sgml to Build-Depends-Indep as docs
are no longer build in the same target as the manpages
* apt-pkg/acquire-methods.cc:
- factor out into private Dequeue() to fix access to deleted pointer
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- ensure that we close compressed fds, wait for forks and such even if
the FileFd itself is set to not autoclose the given Fd
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- use the host architecture, not the build architecture for matching
of [architecture restrictions] in Build-Depends (Closes: #672927)
* doc/makefile:
- build manpages with the correct l10n.gentext.default.language setting
to get the correct section titles provided by docbook
* doc/po/de.po:
- updated german manpage translation by Chris Leick, thanks!
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- do not run into loop on new-pre-depends-breaks (Closes: #673536)
* doc/*.xml:
- add a few translator notes and reword some paragraphs to ensure that
translators and users alike can better understand them (Closes: #669409)
- in <term> mark all options with <option> and mark <term><option>
as untranslated for po4a removing ~200 unless "translateable" strings
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- longcode Translation files are saved with encoded underscore,
so make sure to pick these files up as well for Acquire::Languages
* ftparchive/writer.cc:
- include Contents-* files in Release files (Closes: #673647)
[ Michael Vogt ]
* merged updated de.po, thanks to Holger Wansing (closes: #672466)
[ Raphael Geissert ]
* apt-pkg/acquire*.cc:
- handle redirections in the worker with the right method instead of
in the method the redirection occured in (Closes: #668111)
* methods/http.cc:
- forbid redirects to change protocol
* methods/mirror.cc:
- generate an equal sign also for the first arch (Closes: #669142)
[ Marius Vollmer ]
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
- fix memory leak of Flags in pkgSimulate by a proper destructor
apt (0.9.3) unstable; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.cc:
- remove the message size limit from ioprintf and strprintf
* apt-pkg/contrib/configuration.cc:
- add a more versatile Dump() method
- normalize a bit by replacing // and /./ with / in FindFile
- /dev/null is a special absolute path as it has no subdirectories
* apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
- use Dump() to generate the configuration message for sending
* cmdline/apt-config.cc:
- make it possible to limit dump to a subtree
- implement --empty and --format option for dump
* apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
- use Dump() to generate the configuration output
* apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
- clearly separate 'positive' and 'negative' dependencies and
their upgrade-resolution tries in MarkInstall and especially don't
treat Conflicts differently compared to Breaks here
- provider is only a possible solution if the provides has the right
version (or none as we have no versioned provides in debian) and not
if the version of the provider matches
* edsp/edspsystem.cc:
- check with RealFileExists for scenario file as otherwise a directory
like one provided with RootDir triggers the usage of EDSP
* debian/libapt-inst1.5.symbols:
- use the correct library name the symbols header
* apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
- check if NewDescription allocation has failed and error out accordingly
- check if we work on a valid description in IsDuplicateDescription as
we end up working on dangling pointers otherwise which segfaults on
s390x and ppc64 (Closes: #669427)
* apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
- check length and containing chars for a given description md5sum
* ensure that apti18n.h is included last as advertised (Closes: #671623)
* apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
- revert the use of FileFd::Write in OutFdReady as we don't want error
reports about EAGAIN here as we retry later. Thanks to YOSHINO Yoshihito
for the report. (Closes: #671721)
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- check that the fd which are closed are valid
- ensure that we do init d only once and especially not with its own
content as this causes some "interesting" hickups resulting in segfaults
as it seems (Closes: #554387, #670979)
- collect zombie (de)compressor processes on reopen
- ensure that in error conditions the Fail flag is set
- ensure that d is set before accessing it
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- use NULL instead of "" for no (un)compress parameters
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
- factor out of ListUpdate a AcquireUpdate to be able to provide your
own pkgAcquire fetcher to the wrapper
* apt-inst/deb/debfile.h:
- readd 'md5.h' to the uncleaned header includes to make qapt build
against us again unchanged to unblock transition (Closes: #669163)
apt (0.9.2) unstable; urgency=low
[ Michael Vogt ]
* apt-inst/contrib/extracttar.cc:
- ensure that in StartGzip the InFd is set to "AutoClose" to ensure
that the pipe is closed when InFd is closed. This fixes a Fd leak
(LP: #985452)
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
- only treat the native apt as essential by default (Closes: #669377)
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- redirect stderr from compressors to /dev/null
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- if the compressor is not installed, but we link against it's
library accept it as a CompressionType (Closes: #669328)
* apt-pkg/contrib/sha2_internal.cc:
- do not use the input data directly but memcpy it instead as
it could be unaligned as in the http-transport which causes
a sigbus error on sparc (Closes: #669061)
* apt-pkg/cacheset.cc:
- actually return to the fallback modifier if we have detected we
should for packagenames which look like modifiers (Closes: #669591)
[ Adam Conrad ]
* Set FD_CLOEXEC on history.log's FD (Closes: #610069, LP: #636010)
[ Thorsten Spindler ]
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- do not crash if (*I).Pkg is NULL (LP: #939867)
[ Malcolm Scott ]
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- iterate over all pre-depends or-group member instead of looping
endlessly over the first member in SmartUnpack (LP: #985852)
apt (0.9.1) unstable; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- if pkgCacheFile::Generate is disabled in 'update' don't
remove the caches (and don't try to open them)
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- init counter in SmartConfigure so that the loop-breaker isn't
triggered at random… (Closes: #669060)
[ Christian Perrier ]
* Fix typo in apt-get(8). Closes: #664833
* Replace "argument" by "paramètre" in French translation.
Merci, les Titeps!
* Drop hardcoded "en.html" suffix in apt-secure manpage.
Thanks to David Prevot.
apt (0.9.0) unstable; urgency=low
* upload to debian/unstable
apt (0.9.0~exp1) experimental; urgency=low
[ Michael Vogt ]
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- fix inconsistent clog/cout usage in the debug output
- add APT::pkgPackageManager::MaxLoopCount to ensure that the
ordering code does not get into a endless loop when it flip-flops
between two states
* update libapt-inst1.4 to libapt-inst1.5 because of the cleanup
performed
* prepare debian/unstable upload, if there are no issues with this
upload it will directly go into unstable as 0.9.0
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* do not update po and pot files in the process of the build as this
causes timestamp changes for the mo files which therefore can't
be refcounted by dpkg for your M-A: same packages
(Closes: #659333, LP: #924628)
* apt-inst/database.{cc,h}, apt-inst/deb/dpkgdb.{cc,h}:
- drop instead of fix as it is only needed if you want to reimplement dpkg
and comes straight from the beginning of last decade (Closes: #663372)
* apt-inst/deb/debfile.cc:
- {Extract,Merge}Control() is another instance of "lets reimplement dpkg"
so shot of this code before someone ends up using this…
* debian/libapt-pkg4.12:
- update symbols file
* debian/apt-utils.install:
- ship the ftparchive, apt-extractemplates and apt-sortpkgs locales
in the apt-utils package instead of the apt package
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- recheck all dependencies if we changed a package in SmartConfigure
as this could break an earlier dependency (LP: #940396)
- recheck dependencies in SmartUnpack after a change, too
* apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
- check return of write() as gcc recommends
* apt-pkg/acquire.cc:
- check return of write() as gcc recommends
* apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
- check return of chdir() and link() as gcc recommends
* apt-pkg/clean.cc:
- check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
* apt-pkg/contrib/netrc.cc:
- check return of asprintf() as gcc recommends
* methods/rred.cc:
- check return of writev() as gcc recommends
* methods/mirror.cc:
- check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- check return of write() a gcc recommends
* apt-inst/deb/debfile.cc:
- check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
* apt-inst/deb/dpkgdb.cc:
- check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
* methods/makefile:
- do not link rred against libz anymore as FileFd handles all
this transparently now
* debian/control:
- bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3 (no changes needed)
- add libbz2-dev as new build-dependency
- remove the libz-dev alternative from zlib1g-dev build-dependency
- suggest xz-utils instead of bzip2 and lzma
* doc/apt-get.8.xml:
- typofix: respect → respecting, thanks Mike Erickson! (Closes: #664833)
* debian/rules:
- do not sed in configure.in to set the version-number
* prepare-release:
- add as a small script to lazy check and prepare releases
* doc/*:
- move the command synopsis out of each manpage into apt-verbatim.ent
as they are a hell to translate and just single out the parameters
which can be translated to apt.ent
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- if present, prefer xz binary over lzma
- if we have zlib builtin insert add a dummy gzip compressor for FileFD
- do the same for bz2 builtin if available
* methods/bzip2.cc:
- remove it as the functionality for all compressors can be
provided by gzip.cc now with the usage of FileFD
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- use libz2 library for (de)compression instead of the bzip2 binary as
the first is a dependency of dpkg and the later just priority:optional
so we gain 'easier' access to bz2-compressed Translation files this way
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- print list of autoremoves in alphabetical order (Closes: #639008)
[ Bogdan Purcareata ]
* doc/apt-get.8.xml:
- add 'download' to the usage line (Closes: #649340)
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- distinguish information about 'apt-get autoremove' based on the
number of auto-removed packages both before and after the list
of packages (Closes: #665833)
[ Steve Langasek ]
* don't treat build-depends-indep as cross-build-dependencies; we should
always install the host arch versions. LP: #968828.
[ Paolo Rotolo ]
* Fix string from automatic to automatically (LP: #967393).
apt (0.8.16~exp13) experimental; urgency=low
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- remove 'old' InRelease file if we can't get a new one before
proceeding with Release.gpg to avoid the false impression of a still
trusted repository by a (still present) old InRelease file.
Thanks to Simon Ruderich for reporting this issue! (CVE-2012-0214)
- add Debug::pkgAcqArchive::NoQueue to disable package downloading
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- chroot if needed before dpkg --assert-multi-arch
- ensure that dpkg binary doesn't have the chroot-directory prefixed
- call dpkg --assert-multi-arch with execvp instead of execv
- save the universe by not printing messages about apport if a package
with this name is not installed (Closes: #619646)
- handle a SIGINT in all modes as a break after the currently running
dpkg transaction instead of ignoring it completely
* apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
- if a M-A:same package is marked for reinstall, mark all it's installed
silbings for reinstallation as well (LP: #859188)
* apt-pkg/contrib/configuration.cc:
- do not stop parent transversal in FindDir if the value is empty
* methods/http{s,}.cc:
- if a file without an extension is requested send an 'Accept: text/*'
header to avoid that the server chooses unsupported compressed files
in a content-negotation attempt (Closes: #657560)
- remove the arbitrary MAXLEN limit for response lines (Closes: #658346)
* apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
- chroot if needed before calling dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
- ensure that architectures are not added multiple times
* cmdline/apt-mark.cc:
- detect if dpkg has multiarch support before calling --set-selections
- correctly ignore already (un)hold packages
* apt-pkg/cachefile.cc:
- clean up lost atomic cachefiles with 'clean' (Closes: #650513)
* apt-pkg/indexrecords.cc:
- do not create empty Entries as a sideeffect of Lookup()
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- drop support for i18n/Index file (introduced in 0.8.11) and use
the Release file instead to get the Translations (Closes: #649314)
- use pdiff for Translation-* files if available (Closes: #657902)
* ftparchive/writer.cc:
- add 'Translation-*' to the default patterns
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- if a package can't be removed as it is not installed, suggest to
the user an (installed) multiarch silbing with 'Did you mean?'
- improve 'error' message for packages which are only referenced
e.g. in a Depends line and are now requested for removal
* cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
- correct --pre-depends option by using dash consistently (LP: #940837)
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- do not try to a void a breaks if the broken package pre-depends
on the breaker, but let dpkg auto-deconfigure it
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
- do not warn about the ignoring of directories (Closes: #662762)
[ Steve Langasek ]
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
- for cross-build-dependencies M-A: none should be DEB_HOST_ARCH,
not DEB_BUILD_ARCH (Closes: #646288)
[ Colin Watson ]
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
- don't break out of the main-resolver loop for Breaks to deal with all
of them in a single iteration (Closes: #657695, LP: #922485)
- use a signed int instead of short for score calculation as upgrades
become so big now that it can overflow (Closes: #657732, LP: #917173)
* Fix IndexCopy::CopyPackages and TranslationsCopy::CopyTranslations to
handle compressed files again (LP: #924182, closes: #658096)
[ Michael Vogt ]

- fix crash when a package is in removed but residual config state
(LP: #923807)

unpackaging are unpacked before they are configured (LP: #927993)
[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
- Set the Essential flag on APT instead of only Important
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- Do not use immediate configuration for packages with the Important flag
* Treat the Important flag like the Essential flag with those differences:

Title:
apt-cache fails to filter PreDepends
Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
apt-cache fails to filter out "PreDepends" when using:
apt-cache --no-pre-depends $package
whereas
apt-cache -o APT::Cache::ShowPre-Depends=0 $package
works fine like the other options for "Depends", "Recommends",
"Suggests", "Conflicts", "Breaks", "Replaces", and "Enhances", so this
looks like a bug in apt to me.
