Changelog

Version: 1.2.35 2021-04-29 22:06:17 UTC

  apt (1.2.35) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Backport JSON hooks, version 0.2, to xenial (LP: #1926150). The JSON code
    files are identical to that of 2.3.2, only the integration and test cases
    needed minor adjustment to behave correctly, especially:
    - In private-install.cc, exit before showing the list of packages to
      upgrade/install/etc, in case an error is already set. This moves the
      behavior closer to bionic.
  * Backport zstd support for Launchpad zstd enablement (LP: #1926437)
  * Fix indendation of changelog message in 1.2.34 changelog.
  * Bug fixes needed for JSON hooks:
    - private-install: Handle existing errors before showing lists
    - Avoid duplicated error in `apt search`
  * Bug fixes affecting CI / autopkgtest only:
    - prepare-release: Ignore alternative build dependencies
    - tests: Do not expect requested-by if sudo was invoked by root
    - tests: Export TZ=UTC to work around test failures on non-UTC hosts
    - tests: avoid time-dependent rebuild of caches
