We should probably drop the 1.2.14 SRU - there is a regression in the proxy autodetection code in which it now reads output scripts write on stderr. Fix is:
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/apt/apt.git/commit/?id=0ecceb5bb9cc8727c117195945b7116aceb984fe This is already fixed in 1.3.1, and I'll collect this and the other bug fixes since 1.2.14 soon and publish 1.2.15 We could also merge just the regression fix for now in a 1.2.14ubuntu<something> to go ahead with the 1.2.14 SRU. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1595177 Title: [SRU] Update apt/xenial to 1.2.14 Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: (This is a template for now, so I can close the bug in the 1.2.14 upload) [Impact] We intend to upload APT 1.2.14 to xenial under the new "micro upstream release" policy. Apart from fixing bug 1573547, it also updates translations fixes the following other bugs: [[1.2.13]] Segmentation fault fixes: * fail instead of segfault on unreadable config files (Closes: 824503) Fixes for 3rd party programs using libapt and C++ locale API: * prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIs (Closes: #825396) Fix for hurd (not really affecting us here, but upstream): * apt-key: change to / before find to satisfy its CWD needs. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for 'finding' the culprit! (Closes: 826043) Leak fixes: * do not hang on piped input in PipedFileFdPrivate * don't leak an FD in lz4 (de)compression * don't leak FD in AutoProxyDetect command return parsing [[1.2.14]] Regression fix from 1.2.13: * do not error if auto-detect-proxy cmd has no output (Closes: 827713) Huge apt-ftparchive performance regression fix from 1.1: * Reinstate caching of file hashes in apt-ftparchive (Closes: #806924) Tiny bug fixes, about 2 lines each: * source: if download is skipped, don't try to unpack * ensure filesize of deb is included in the hashes list [Test case] The releases follow new upstream micro release rule and thus are assumed to be tested by our integration test suite. There are two exceptions which cannot be tested: * prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIs * apt-key: change to / before find to satisfy its CWD needs The first has no affected code in the archive (but maybe 3rd party code), the second only affects hurd. [Regression Potential] Very low. The release has been tested by a thorough integration test suite on Travis CI, Debian autopkgtests, and has been in Debian unstable since 2016-06-22.
