The dependency tree created by parsing the output of "apt-cache depends" always
generates an array of array. The old representation of a simple dependency as
an hash is gone in favor of an OR with a single entry (so the hash is the only
element within the array).
So all the code in add_missing() that was dealing with the case of the hash
was never triggered.
I tweaked the OR case so that the generated log messages actually
mention "OR" only if it's a true OR dependency (i.e. with multiple
entries in the array).
Everywhere where we call add_missing() on Depends, we must do it also
on Recommends and Suggests based on $add_rec and $add_sug.
Tweak the code that is supposed to stop the recursion to use
the list that we have built but don't be strict about version
constraints on Recommends/Suggests since they can't always
be respected.
Closes: #601203
There's no point in passing them as parameters everywhere.
This changes the behaviour in some places:
1/ When we process the non-explicitly included packages (for COMPLETE=1),
we used to never take Recommends/Suggests into account, now we do. But
the only thing that will be changed is the ordering with some
Recommended packages being included before their depending package.
2/ When we process the EXTRANONFREE image, this one was always including
Recommends and Suggests, and it's now respecting the setting too.
It's required by debian-installer and cryptsetup >= 2.4.0 no longer
recommends it, so it ends up missing in the netinst image.
base-installer then fails to honor the apt-setup request and the
resulting system is unbootable because the initramfs doesn't contain
anything to unlock the encrypted partitions. :-(
Using the new generate_firmware_patterns script, generate a patterns
file in /firmware/dep11/<package>.patterns as we add a firmware
package onto media.
Deal with size changes as these are added/removed, and add them to the
md5sum.txt file on media too.
The source code doesn't use the MODULE_FIRMWARE() macro so the machinery
implemented in src:firmware-nonfree wouldn't help. Extract alias info
manually once, and make note to keep an eye on further updates (e.g. via
a crontab on d-i.debian.org).
The related code seems to have been useful a long time ago (the need to use
an RLE file and to reduce the number of colours to 16 has been dropped as of
syslinux version 3.62). So replace obsolete code with a simple cp command.
