apt (2.3.2) experimental; urgency=medium
* Remove inversed comment for AllowUnsizedPackages
* Automatically retry failed downloads 3 times.
Enable the Acquire::Retries option by default, set to 3.
This will help with slightly unreliable networking; future
work is needed for adding backoff and SRV/IP rotation. (LP: #1876035)
* Require dpkg >= 1.20.8 and make more use of --auto-deconfigure now that
no longer needs forcing for essential/protected:
- Support deconfiguring Essential packages
- Do not pass --force-remove-protected with --auto-deconfigure
* JSON hook bug fixes:
- json: Escape strings using \u escape sequences, add test
- json: Actually pop states
- json: Encode NULL strings as null
- json: Flush standard file descriptors before calling hooks
- test/json: Make the test hook more reliable
* JSON hooks 0.2:
- json: Add origins fields to version
- upgrade: Add JSON hook support (AptCli::Hooks::Upgrade)
- json: Add `package-list` and `statistics` install hooks
- json: Hook protocol 0.2 (added upgrade,downgrade,reinstall modes)
- 2.3-only: Warn that the 0.1 protocol is deprecated
* Avoid infinite loop on EOF on media change prompt
I think this is fixed for Impish.

Bug description:
[Impact]
We want to be able to use JSON hooks 0.2 in xenial and later releases to
display messages to users during dist-upgrade.
For xenial, we backport the JSON hook support in its entirety, whereas
for later releases, we only need to cherry-pick bugfixes and the v0.2
improvements.
[Test plan]
We have included unit and integration tests for the new JSON code to test the
writer and prevent regressions in future changes. Regressions in other parts of
the code should be caught by the test suite.
[Where problems could occur]
There may be bugs in the JSON code (apt-private/private-json-hooks.*) and in
the integration thereof. The JSON hook code is identical to 2.3.2, whereas the
integration code needed slight adjustments.
The integration changes are limited to adding the hooks, and (for
xenial, already in later releases) collecting all unknown package
names. We believe the regression potential of these changes to be
fairly limited.
However, errors in JSON hooks are fatal, so once JSON hooks are
running, they can cause apt to fail, which has to be kept in mind.
Existing JSON hooks might not expect the new notifications, and break,
but we are only aware of the snapd hook and it ignores any unknown
notifications, so that should not pose a problem.
