commit 806e94dcd8dbdf7bf1909657fd4331cfe17b4ab0
Author: Julian Andres Klode <julian.klode@canonical.com>
Date:   Mon Dec 10 16:52:59 2018 +0100

    Set PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin when running dpkg
    
    This avoids a lot of problems from local installations of
    scripting languages and other stuff in /usr/local for which
    maintainer scripts are not prepared.
    
    [v3: Inherit PATH during tests, check overrides work]
    [v2: Add testing]

commit bbfcc05c1978decd28df9681fd73e2a7d9a8c2a5
Author: Julian Andres Klode <julian.klode@canonical.com>
Date:   Mon Dec 3 17:39:03 2018 +0100

    Add support for /etc/apt/auth.conf.d/*.conf (netrcparts)
    
    This allows us to install matching auth files for sources.list.d
    files, for example; very useful.
    
    This converts aptmethod's authfd from one FileFd to a vector of
    pointers to FileFd, as FileFd cannot be copied, and move operators
    are hard.

commit 37bdbe03d44975951d2518bb9b3d3636081dca6a
Author: Julian Andres Klode <julian.klode@canonical.com>
Date:   Tue Dec 4 16:31:07 2018 +0100

    Override FileFd copy constructor to prevent copying
    
    FileFd could be copied using the default copy constructor,
    which does not work, and then causes code to crash.

commit 64d7e1c568a7f9e7f32d1dee1ab771f924baa28d

    Use quoted tagnames in config dumps
    
    Tagnames in configuration can include spaces (and other nasties) e.g. in
    repository-specific configuration options due to Origin/Label
    potentially containing a space. The configuration file format supports
    parsing quoted as well as encoded spaces, but the output generated by
    apt-config and other places which might be feedback into apt via
    parsing (e.g. before calling apt-key in our gpgv method) do not quote
    and hence produce invalid configuration files.
    
    Changing the default to be an encoded tagname ensures that the output of
    dump can be used as a config file, but other users might not expect
    this so that is technically a backward-breaking change.

    Allow to override the directory of a request in aptwebserver
    
    The filename can be overridden, but sometimes it is useful to do it only
    for the directory-part of the filename – e.g. if you want to let a flat
    archive directory (like /var/cache/apt/archives) serve a pool-based
    request like /pool/a/apt_version.deb.

    Allow setting Referer header for http method
    
    Not needed for common interactions, but for some download-file
    interactions it could be useful to set a specific referer as some
    servers do not serve requested files otherwise.

    aptwebserver: Prevent XSS in debug and file listing
    
    We sometimes autogenerate HTML pages e.g. for listing files in a
    directory or for various error codes. If this would be a serious
    webserver this would be a security problem (althrough a bit hard to
    exploit), but as it is not shipped and intended to be used by our
    testcases only the world hasn't ended &amp; we can ignore it for
    changelog and fix it for brownie points.

    aptwebserver: Guess Content-Type from filename extension
    
    Browsing pages served via aptwebserver is working better if we tell the
    browser the Content-Type which for this simple usecase we can just do by
    guessing based on the file extension – and because hardcoding a list
    would be boring we just reuse the mime.types data from mime-support if
    available and allow it to be overridden by files and config.

    Adjust libapt-pkg Breaks aptitude to << 0.8.9
    
    The << 0.8.11 was stronger than necessary, and breaks Ubuntu,
    which is unable to build aptitude 0.8.11 atm (the test suite
    fails since 0.8.10 in C++17 mode, only works in C++14, but
    0.8.11 uses C++17 constructs).
