Change logs for apt-file source package in Sid

  • apt-file (3.3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      [ Debian Janitor ]
      * Drop no longer supported add-log-mailing-address setting from
        debian/changelog.
    
      [ Niels Thykier ]
      * Add new --stream-results argument to apt-file.  This option
        will make apt-file emit results as soon as they are found
        but also emit duplicate results in many cases.  It can greatly
        reduce memory usage and runtime spent up to first result.
    
      [ Ville Skyttä ]
      * apt-file: Replace `fgrep` with `grep -E`.  (Closes: #1019329)
    
      [ Lucy Phipps ]
      * apt-file: Fix invalid call to stop_with_msg.
      * debian/control: Remove obsolete (build-)dependency on
        liblist-moreutils-perl.
    
      [ Debian Janitor ]
      * Remove constraints unnecessary since buster:
        + Build-Depends: Drop versioned constraint on apt.
        + apt-file: Drop versioned constraint on apt in Depends.
        + apt-file: Drop versioned constraint on apt-venv, command-not-found and
          devscripts in Breaks.
        + Remove 2 maintscript entries from 1 files.
      * Bump debhelper from old 11 to 13.
      * Update standards version to 4.6.0, no changes needed.

  • apt-file (3.2.2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Fix bug where the progress indicator was still been using
        under debug mode (despite the intention for it to be
        disabled as it clashes with the debug messages).
      * README.md: Update links to Julian's blog.  (Closes: #921115)
      * Optimize imports to reduce start up time a bit.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Sat, 09 Feb 2019 09:20:04 +0000
  • apt-file (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Include a final new-line in the 50apt-file.conf file.  Thanks to
        Sven Joachim for reporting its absence.  (Closes: #917304)
      * Optimize "apt-file list-indices" by about a factor 3 in the
        default case by calling "apt-get indextargets" only once rather
        than once per index.
      * Have apt-file print status indicators when stdout is a TTY
        (and when not running in debug mode).
      * Explicitly pass configuration file to apt-file during the test
        to fix a problem with the autopkgtests failing.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Fri, 28 Dec 2018 10:06:14 +0000
  • apt-file (3.2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Drop now unnecessary lintian-overrides.
      * Add a new "list-indices" command to list which indices can be
        enabled/disabled and searched (using the -I command).
      * Assume that Contents files no longer have a descriptive header
        that contains human-readable instructions for how to read the
        file.  If you are working with Contents files that still have
        them, then set "apt-file::Parser::Check-For-Description-Header"
        to "true" in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50apt-file.conf.  Thanks to
        Paul Wise for making this factor 2 speed improvement possible.
        (Closes: #881406)
      * Reset the error message for when the apt-file cache is empty
        to refer to "apt-file update" instead of "apt update".
        (Closes: #857095)
      * Clarify in apt-file.1 that "apt-file update" is not deprecated
        as it has a special case where it is different from a regular
        "apt update" / "apt-get update".
      * Sort the options in the --help output (except for --help and
        "--", which are both deliberately last).  (Closes: #651684)
      * Bump Standards-Version to 4.3.0.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Tue, 25 Dec 2018 16:00:53 +0000
  • apt-file (3.1.6) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Fix typo in the changelog
      * Update Vcs-* fields to point to salsa.debian.org.
      * Bump Standards-Versions to 4.1.4 - No changes required.
      * Bump debhelper compat 11 via the new "debhelper-compat"
        dependency.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Sat, 28 Apr 2018 09:43:50 +0000
  • apt-file (3.1.5) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Remove rapt-file and two obsolete .sgml files from the source.
      * Set R³ to no; apt-file does not need (fake)root during the
        binary-targets in the package builds.
      * Skip dh_strip_determinism; it is a no-op at the moment and
        is planned to be removed eventually.
      * Set debhelper compat to 10.
      * Bump Standards-Version to 4.1.1 - no additional changes
        required.

  • apt-file (3.1.4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Fix typo in 60disable-contents-fetching.conf.  Thanks to
        Felix Geyer for spotting it.  (Closes: #843453)
      * apt-file: Fix two spelling mistakes in the --help output.
        Thanks to "axhn" on IRC and Guillem Jover for spotting
        them.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Mon, 23 Jan 2017 20:39:04 +0000
  • apt-file (3.1.3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * apt-file: Gracefully handle if origins (or suites) have spaces
        in them.  (Closes: #843401, #843403)
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Sun, 06 Nov 2016 15:03:52 +0000
  • apt-file (3.1.2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      [ Niels Thykier ]
      * apt-file: Strip Contents header without discarding results (Closes: #676642)
      * apt-file: Restructure --help output.
      * apt-file: Support --filter-suites and --filter-origins options.  These
        make it possible to only search in (e.g.) Debian/unstable even if
        other origins or/and suites are downloaded.
      * apt-file.1: Clarify that --config-file and --option can be used to
        overwrite other command line parameters.
    
      [ Paul Wise ]
      * Make the package filter regex match the sectionless Contents-source format
      * Strip the Contents header from the sid cache in the tests

  • apt-file (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * apt-file: Fix off-by-one causing "uninitialized value"
        warning.  Thanks to Paul Wise for reporting the issue.
        (Closes: #838296)
      * apt-file: Use "apt-get" instead of "apt" for the update
        command if STDOUT is not a TTY.  This is to avoid a
        warning from apt about it being unsuitable for scripts.
    
     -- Niels Thykier <email address hidden>  Wed, 21 Sep 2016 18:53:01 +0000
  • apt-file (3.1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Move apt-file under the APT packaging team.

        Thanks to Paul Wise for reporting the issue.
        (Closes: #821016)
      * apt-file: Fix bug where package listing did not work if the
        Contents files did not include sections.  Thanks to
        "Unit 193" for the report.  (Closes: #820560)
      * apt-file-2-update.sh: Correct path to the "partial" directory.
        Thanks to Ritesh Raj Sarraf for the report.  (Closes: #832131)
      * apt-file, 50apt-file.conf: Support fetching of Contents files
        in legacy locations (as used by Ubuntu) by default.  This
        requires apt 1.3.
      * apt-file: Support setting a default value for -I/--index-names
        in the apt config file.  Thanks to Cyril Brulebois for the
        suggestion (part of #825293)
      * apt-file: Accept "ALL" as a special index name for -I.  When
        given, apt-file will search all of its indices.  Thanks to
        Cyril Brulebois for the suggestion (part of #825293).
      * debian/NEWS: Clarify that the indices for source packages and
        udebs are disabled in the apt-file 2 -> 3 transition.  These
        must be manually reabled.  Thanks to Cyril Brulebois for the
        report.  (Closes: #825293)
      * apt-file: Exit with an error if a subprocess exits non-zero
        (except for grep) or is killed by a signal.  Thanks to
        Paul Wise for the suggestion.  (Closes: #825883)
      * Set debhelper compat to "beta-tester" and bump the minimum
        requirements for debhelper to 10.
      * Bump Standards-Versions to 3.9.8 - no changes required.

  • apt-file (3.0) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Upload to unstable.
      * d/bash-completion: Update bash-completion to include the
        new command line options.
      * apt-file-2-update.sh: Fix a bug in --uninstall, where it would
        not remove /etc/apt/apt-file.conf
      * 50apt-file.conf: Disable Contents-dsc by default.  They are
        vastly more resource heavy than the rest.
      * README: Document how to change which Contents files are
        downloaded.
      * d/changelog: Add some missing "LP:"-closes in the 3.0~exp entry.
      * Merge and improve the NEWS entries for the experimental apt-file
        3.0 uploads.
      * Drop update-notifier scripts since update-notifier has been
        removed from Debian.
      * d/control: Bump Standards-Versions to 3.9.7 - no changes
        required.

        Index file.  Thanks to Julien Cristau for reporting
        the issue.  (Closes: #809656)

  • apt-file (2.5.4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
    
      * Apply patch from Cyril Brulebois to support searching for
        files in "udeb" packages.  This requires "debian-installer"
        entries in the sources.list and are represented by the pseudo
        "udeb-<arch>" architecture (e.g. "udeb-amd64").

  • apt-file (2.5.3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
    
      * No longer install rapt-file. The backend service this tool uses
        has unfortunately ceased to exist. (Closes: #729283)
      * Checked for policy 3.9.6, no changes.

  • apt-file (2.5.2.2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
    
      * Avoid confusing error message caused by interpreting
        a signal number as an "errno".  Thanks to Julien Cristau
        for spotting this.  (Closes: #731056)
      * Use the name of a signal rather than its number, when
        subprocesses are kiled by such.
      * Correct the Vcs-* URL's in d/control.  Thanks to Alberto
        Fuentes for reporting this.  (Closes: #734714)
      * Bump Standards-Versions to 3.9.5 - no changes required.

      * New maintainer.  (Closes: #703366)
        Kudos to Stefan Fritsch for his work on apt-file.
      * When using "-f" and no files are given, default to stdin.
        (Closes: #703594)
      * Bump Standards-Versions to 3.9.4 - no changes required.
      * Use the canonical URIs for the Vcs-* fields.

  • apt-file (2.5.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      [ Thijs Kinkhorst ]
      * Fix searching for patterns that start with a '-'. This still requires
        specifying '--' before the pattern (closes: #631438, LP: #801336)
      * Unset env variables that may influence the behaviour of grep
        (closes: #617183).
      * Japanese translation of update-notifier text by Hideki Yamane
        (closes: #641199).
      * Improve man page layout and help output text. Thanks Jari Aalto for
        the patch! (Closes: #651695)
      * rapt-file: replace dpkg-architecture call with dpkg --architecture,
        obsoleting the depends-heavy recommendation on dpkg-dev. Thanks
        helix84 (Closes: #671225).
      * Checked for policy 3.9.3, no changes needed. Add explicit python
        recommendation, even though we transitively recommended it via
        python-apt already, to satisfy Lintian.
      * Add rapt-file manual page (Closes: #613005).
    
      [ Enrico Zini ]
      * rapt-file: Updated distribution names, now it works on wheezy.
        (Closes: #663592)
      * rapt-file: deal with missing /etc/apt/sources.list. (Closes: #636564)

      [ Paul Wise ]  * rapt-file: Drop python-apt wrapper shell script, detect the lack of a    python apt module in the rapt-file python code (Closes: #619414).  * mention rapt-file in the package description (Closes: #623632)  [ Thijs Kinkhorst ]  * apt-file: Include compontent in Contents file search paths so we    use ftp-master's new Contents files locations. This may break    compatibility with older suites that do not have this configuration    (Closes: #624734).  * rapt-file: Ignore files not ending in .list in sources.list.d    (Closes: #607861).  * rapt-file: Recommend dpkg-dev because we use dpkg-architecture    (Closes: #613006).  * Correct scp invocation in apt-file.conf (Closes: #624290).  * Small packaging cleanups.  -- Thijs Kinkhorst <email address hidden>  Sun, 24 Jul 2011 16:01:09 +0000

      * Make the update-notifier hook also look into the user's cache before
        asking to update (closes: #534191).

      * Add initial version of rapt-file, which does not rely on the downloaded
        file lists, but queries dde.debian.net for every search. It does not offer
        all features of apt-file (closes: #518764).

        (LP: #316155):
        - make error message less noisy
        - don't calculate the sha1sum of the old file, it's futile anyway
        - don't redownload the full file if it has not changed

      * Ship 'diffindex-download' and 'diffindex-rred' for downloading patches
        instead of the full Contents files. Use this for http and ftp in default
        config file (closes: #373589).
      * diffindex-download uses curl with progress meter enabled by default
        (can be changed in apt-file.conf). Closes: #381613
        Therefore always depend on curl and remove dependency on wget.
      * diffindex-download prints some error messages if no connection is possible
        (closes: #357031).
      * Make 'apt-file purge' remove old content files even if the sources.list
        line has been removed in the meantime (closes: #507092).
      * Make tests not require wget or curl during build-time. Thanks James Westby
        (closes: #506554).

  • apt-file (2.1.6) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * Use ~/.cache/apt-file as cache directory if called as non-root user,
        but fall back to the old /var/cache/apt/apt-file. This allows to use
        'apt-file update' as non-root (closes: #443728).
      * No longer search for apt-file.conf in the current directory. Instead,
        allow to choose the config file with the APT_FILE_CONFIG environment
        variable. 
      * Update bash completion (closes: #502655).
      * Add some tests and run them during build.

  • apt-file (2.1.5) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * Fix wrong permissions for cache directory created by old versions
        (closes: #495519).
      * Fix leading slashes being ignored when searching, a regression introduced
        by the fix for #483624 (closes: #496127).
      * Give meaningful error message if cache dir cannot be read.
      * Bump standards version (no changes).
