description |
since ubuntu disco, main repositories contains 'cnf' directory with 'Commands*' files.
those files are compressed with xy, whereas apt-mirror 0.5.1 doesn't contain the patch which enable download of .xz compressed files : https://github.com/apt-mirror/apt-mirror/commit/a17949ca2592678aa18e263241108e431fed6c4e
it should be backported, as we can have servers on 16.04 doing mirrors for people using recent distros. without that, it's impossible to migrate from osmic to disco using a mirror done by xenial's apt-mirror.

[Impact]

* Without this update, users are not able to mirror newer releases of Ubuntu.
[Test Case]
* On any release of Ubuntu install apt-mirror and add this line to /etc/apt/mirror.list:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan-updates main restricted universe multiverse
* sync the mirror using `apt-mirror`
* Attempt to run `apt update` against the mirror. The result will be similar to:

* It's a patchset from a fork repo, if apt-mirror upstream becomes alive again in the future, it won't necessary mean that the fork will be commited/merged upstream, and Ubuntu package might differ from original upstream until next version bump.
[Other informations]
The required patchset is from a fork of upstream apt-mirror josbraden/apt-mirror (https://github.com/josbraden/apt-mirror)
Note that upstream apt-mirror is not active anymore, and is looking for a new maintainer as published in their github page: https://github.com/apt-mirror/apt-mirror
That's why we have to rely on the fork atm.
The required patchset are (tested by Chris in the form of a test pkg:
0001-Copy-DEP-11-functions-for-editing.patch
0001-Replace-DEP-11-with-cnf-in-DEP-11-code-copy.patch
0001-Fix-Regex.patch
0001-Improve-regex-for-cnf-file-matching.patch
0001-Remove-dev-note.patch

Not much update has been made since Upstream become inactive as noted from the output of rmadison:
Since Bionic, it is a simple copy from release to active devel release and so on directly from debian, no patching whatsoever and nothing new to pull from Debian as well.

apt-mirror 0.5.4-1 is found in sid/unstable
---
The required patchset is from a fork of upstream apt-mirror josbraden/apt-mirror (https://github.com/josbraden/apt-mirror)
Note that upstream apt-mirror is not active anymore, and is looking for a new maintainer as published in their github page: https://github.com/apt-mirror/apt-mirror
That's why we have to rely on the fork atm.
The required patchset are (tested by Chris in the form of a test pkg:
0001-Copy-DEP-11-functions-for-editing.patch
0001-Replace-DEP-11-with-cnf-in-DEP-11-code-copy.patch
0001-Fix-Regex.patch
0001-Improve-regex-for-cnf-file-matching.patch
0001-Remove-dev-note.patch
0001-Fix-missing-parenthesis.patch
I also talked with sil2100 (SRU verification team member) about the feasibilty of this SRU (from a fork repo):
"
<sil2100> Yeah, I'd say fixes from forked repositories in this case make sense Since there's no longer any 'one authority' for it.

[Impact]
* since ubuntu disco, main repositories contains 'cnf' directory with 'Commands*' files. those files are compressed with xy, whereas apt-mirror 0.5.1 doesn't contain the patch which enable download of .xz compressed files
* Without this update, users are not able to mirror newer releases of Ubuntu.
[Test Case]
* On any release of Ubuntu install apt-mirror and add this line to /etc/apt/mirror.list:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan-updates main restricted universe multiverse
* sync the mirror using `apt-mirror`
* Attempt to run `apt update` against the mirror. The result will be similar to:
...
Err:7 http://10.3.0.41/ubuntu eoan-updates/main amd64 c-n-f Metadata
404 Not Found [IP: 10.3.0.41 80]
Ign:14 http://10.3.0.41/ubuntu eoan-updates/multiverse amd64 c-n-f Metadata

Ign:16 http://10.3.0.41/ubuntu eoan-updates/restricted amd64 c-n-f Metadata
Reading package lists... Done
E: Failed to fetch http://10.3.0.41/ubuntu/dists/eoan-updates/main/cnf/Commands-amd64 404 Not Found [IP: 10.3.0.41 80]
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
...
* Updating the apt-mirror package from ppa:slashd/test and then re-running the `apt-mirror` command will then allow a successful `apt update`.
[Regression Potential]
* The regression potential is low since the package doesn't currently work properly anyway.
* It's a patchset from a fork repo, if apt-mirror upstream becomes alive again in the future, it won't necessary mean that the fork will be commited/merged upstream, and Ubuntu package might differ from original upstream until next version bump.
[Other informations]
Upstream bug:
https://github.com/apt-mirror/apt-mirror/issues/118
Not much update has been made since Upstream become inactive as noted from the output of rmadison:
Since Bionic, it is a simple copy from release to active devel release and so on directly from debian, no patching whatsoever and nothing new to pull from Debian as well.
