Package: pkg-perl-tools
Severity: important
User: de...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: apt-internals
Dear Maintainer of pkg-perl-tools,
your package appears to be relying on the internal layout of /var/lib/apt/lists
and the location of that directory (which is configurable), as it matches the
following regular expression (and a quick check did not rule out a false
positive):
/var/lib/apt/lists/.*(Packages|Sources)
For the matches found, you can have a quick look at:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=%2Fvar%2Flib%2Fapt%2Flists%2F.*%28Packages%7CSources%29+package%3Apkg-perl-tools
APT since some time supports compressed indices using the option
`Acquire::gzipIndexes`. Starting with 1.2, index files are stored
with lz4 compression if that option is enabled, providing significant
space savings at low overhead.
Some platforms and users might already have these indexes compressed by default
in order to save space, and your package might not be working for them.
Instead of relying on internals, please use the interfaces provided by
APT 1.1 and newer:
## Command-line interfaces
In order to get paths to index files, please use:
apt-get indextargets --format '$(FILENAME)' "Created-By: $creator"
where `$creator` is `Packages`, `Sources`, `Contents-deb`, `Contents-udeb`,
or `Contents-deb-legacy`, depending on which files you need.
To read the file, use
/usr/lib/apt/apt-helper cat-file <FILE>...
This transparently handles compression supported by apt.
## C++ interface
When reading files in C++, you might want to use APT's FileFd class. It
provides the same transparent compression support as `apt-helper cat-file`
(if turned on).

Source: pkg-perl-tools
Binary: pkg-perl-tools pkg-perl-autopkgtest
Architecture: source
Version: 0.40
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Debian Perl Group <pkg-perl-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org>
Changed-By: gregor herrmann <gre...@debian.org>
Closes: 874778
Description:
pkg-perl-autopkgtest - collection of autopktest scripts for Perl packages
pkg-perl-tools - collection of tools to aid packaging Perl modules in Debian
Changes:
pkg-perl-tools (0.40) unstable; urgency=medium
.
[ gregor herrmann ]
* examples/check-build: update autopkgtest section.
Drop adt-run variant, as stable has autopkgtest, and add --shell-fail
option.
* examples/check-build: add option to run reprotest.
.
[ Dominic Hargreaves ]
* Add missing dependency on curl
.
[ gregor herrmann ]
* examples/pbuilder-hooks/E10cleanup:
+ use `apt-get indextargets' and `/usr/lib/apt/apt-helper cat-file'
instead of grepping the Packages files directly. Guarded by a check
for apt 1.1, so the old code is still there but only used in
oldstable.
Thanks to Julian Andres Klode for the bug report. (Closes: #874778)
+ use dpkg-vendor to check for Ubuntu instead of grepping
/etc/lsb-release.
.
[ intrigeri ]
* examples/check-build: update autopkgtest section to support current
sid with libvirt/QEMU … while keeping compatibility with Stretch, and
dropping another Jessie-area path.
.
[ gregor herrmann ]
* autopkgtest: smoke: move prove's --verbose to PKG_PERL_PROVE_ARGS to
make it overridable via smoke-env as well.
* examples/check-build: also offer to run autopkgtest when
debian/tests/control is around.
* examples/pbuilder-hooks/*00iptables: use 127.0.0.0/8 instead of
127.0.0.1.
Thanks to Tincho for the bug report.
.
[ Axel Beckert ]
* Set "Rules-Requires-Root: no".
* Remove trailing whitespace from ancient debian/changelog entry.
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.1.1.
+ Change Priority from extra to optional.
.
[ Alex Muntada ]
* Debian::PkgPerl::GitHub:
+ Add missing ticket param for method new
+ Increase verbosity when patching fails
+ Add test for a failing patch
+ Capture and show error if pull-request fails
.
[ Damyan Ivanov ]
* dpt-uscan: new wrapper around uscan and gbp import-orig
* pristine-orig: honour USCAN_DESTDIR from devscripts' configuration
* gc: add -p option, running 'git gc' via 'parallel', utilising all
available CPUs.
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.1.3. (No changes needed.)
.
[ gregor herrmann ]
* Remove Makefile.PL hack, as we have an explicit "Testsuite:
autopkgtest-pkg-perl".
* Consolidate and extend debian/copyright.
* Bump debhelper compatibility level to 10.
* Remove another common unneded test file in autopkgtest's smoke test.
* examples/check-build: update lintian invocation.
tag-display-limit=0 can be set in the config since 2.5.63.
* Slightly improve documentation about DPT_* variables, dpt-config, and
dpt.conf in various scripts.
* Extend long description of pkg-perl-autopkgtest.
Mention Testsuite header and README.
* Add dpt-alsa: manage team repos and members on salsa.debian.org.
* Test::Spelling: fix some mistakes, add some stopwords.
* Add lintian overrides for binary-package-depends-on-toolchain-package
(debhelper/cdbs).
* dpt-get-ubuntu-packages: use udd-mirror.debian.net instead of ssh'ing
into Alioth and using udd itself.
Additionally remove trailing whitespace.
* dpt-lp-mass-subscribe: port to python3.
* Remove dpt-alioth-author.
Was supposed to run on Alioth which is about to go away.
* Remove dpt-alioth-repo and point to its successor `dpt salsa
pushrepo'.
* dpt-takeover: use `dpt salsa pushrepo' instead of the removed
dpt-alioth-repo.
