Title:
apt/trusty: Stack overflow in apt-ftparchive; on arm64, breaking about
a third of the tests
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in apt source package in Trusty:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
autopkgtest suite on arm64 is basically useless, as about a third of the
tests do not work, because they rely on apt-ftparchive generating an archive
[Test case]
Substantially less tests should fail, there should be no segfaults.
[Regression potential]
I am cherry-picking a fix that changes statically length arrays (that are too
small) to vector. A possible regression could be fields missing I guess, it
should definitely be easily noticeable. Low risk.
