David Kalnischkies	c2cb442899	Let apt decide unpack order instead of sorting filenames ... Now that the deb files can reside in different places sorting them leads to subtil differences in the order and hence the created chroot. apts unpack order on the other hand might not be a good order (but why would one sorted from a to z be one?), but it is far more stable as it is independent on the filenames.	2022-05-13 11:26:08 +02:00
David Kalnischkies	317bfea7e5	Support file:// mirrors the same way copy:// is supported ... As long as you can make it so that the same path to the deb file works inside and outside of the chroot using file:// as a mirror is no longer a problem with the previous work.	2022-05-13 11:26:08 +02:00
David Kalnischkies	3ceebe7e07	Ask apt to give us the deb filenames directly ... Guessing filenames is boring. What if we could ask apt to tell us which debs it downloaded (or found lying around elsewhere) directly? Turns out we can rather easily avoiding a bunch of guesswork.	2022-05-13 11:26:08 +02:00
David Kalnischkies	75e5a14e6d	Factor out downloading packages with apt	2022-05-13 11:26:08 +02:00
David Kalnischkies	ee142d52a5	Replace EDSP with EIPP usage obsoleting proxysolver ... EIPP stands for "External Installation Planner Protocol" and is rather similar to EDSP but with the clear advantage that we can extract the information we need more easily as we can tell apt to write the file for us rather than playing solver-in-the-middle and the problem space is much smaller meaning less data for apt to generate and to pass through our hands. The idea here is simply that every package which doesn't have a Status field in EIPP has the uninstalled status and the only reason its is part of the EIPP request is that we want to change this by installing it. That could be verified via the Install header at the start of the request, but this commit doesn't implement that. Note that this means we need "more" than the download-only mode can provide: Either a simulation or "the real deal". Except we modify the later to be a fancy no op.	2022-05-13 11:26:08 +02:00

Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues	7044baf6b1	run busybox from an absolute path to allow running it even when /proc is not mounted as busybox uses /proc/self/exe to figure out its own path	2022-03-07 11:27:10 +01:00

Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues	489e51a2eb	Run File::Find::find with no_chdir=>1 ... Without no_chdir=>1 the unshared child process in unshare mode needs read permissions for the directory from which mmdebstrap is executed. With this change, the current working directory does not need to be world-readable anymore. Closes: #1005857 Reported-by: Trent W. Buck <trentbuck@gmail.com>	2022-02-16 10:53:05 +01:00
