- The default for $proxy_host is undef
- apt considers $proxy_set to be absent if $proxy_host is undef
- apt::ppa considers proxy_env to be empty if $proxy_host is false or ''
This results in apt::ppa to consider $proxy_host to be set when the default undef is used
breaking ppa resources because $proxy_env becomes:
[http_proxy=http://:8080, https_proxy=http://:8080]
Fix this by making both apt and apt::ppa consider $proxy_host to be unset when it is
any of false, '', or undef.
Adds spec test
If lab-release is not installed, then the end user sees a confusing/ vague message
Error: Unsupported lsbdistid () at /modules/apt/manifests/params.pp:52
It is common for docker containers to not include this package by default
After fix, the user sees a friendlier message if lab-release is not installed
Error: Unable to determine lsbdistid, is lsb-release installed? at /modules/apt/manifests/params.pp:52

Official security support for Debian GNU/Linux 6.0
(code name "Squeeze") has ended on 31 May 2014.
However long term support for the distribution
is going to be extended until February 2016,
i.e. five years after the initial release.
See https://wiki.debian.org/LTS for more details.
As some places dont have port 11371 open, they are required to use URL as
key_server instead of domain name therefore adding the capability to use URL or
domain name as key_server parameter
Ubuntu 14.04 ships with apt 0.9.15, has a ``fancy progress bar'', which
is a green bar that shows at the bottom of the terminal showing progress
throughout install.
This patch enables the progress bar, which is usually done by running
echo 'Dpkg::Progress-Fancy "1";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99progressbar
This commit changes the proxy file name to be more consistent with other files
in `apt.conf.d`. The old file (`apt.conf.d/proxy`) is removed.
Tests has been updated.
Because Squeeze is now oldstable we need to add an oldstable line too
otherwise security updates won't be picked up. This is still because we
can't match on codename.
The default configuration we were writing for Debian was only working
for Squeeze, from Wheezy and onwards this wasn't working anymore. This
has to do with the fact that we should now be using Origins-Pattern
according to the unattended-upgrades docs. However, Ubuntu didn't
entirely get with the program yet...
This change reflects the defaults that unattended-upgrade installs on
every platform we support. In order to do so the unattended-upgrades
Debian archive for Squeeze, Wheezy, Lucid, Precise and Trusty were
downloaded and the default /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades
checked for its content with regard to using Allow-Origins or
Origins-Pattern.
Fixes#277
The module used to always pin backports to a priority of 200. This
default is still retained but is now configurable.
Additionally the default is now an Integer, not a 'quoted Integer' and
the tests have been updated to reflect this. This matters for future
parser as it will now kick people if they pass in a stringified integer
as priority.
I am aware this can be done with `dpkg --set-selections`, `apt-mark`
or `ensure => 'held'` on a package resource. The changes to the README
include the full rationale for wanting another mechanism.
Introducing a totally rewritten and tested apt::key. This commit also
patches the spec's of apt::source because it was passing in data that
is no longer allowed by the new validation rules in apt::key.
It does its best to not touch any other specs and where we touch them
only minimally to ensure that we're not introducing breaking changes.
