Hi,
I'm poking around at the new security stuff in apt 0.6, and I have a quick
question:
What exactly is the purpose of the IndexFile class, and how does it behave?
For instance, pkgAcqArchive::IsTrusted appears to assume that some index file
will always be available for a given Version. Is that true?
I mention this method because if no index file is found, it returns "true",
so a complete lack of index files -- meaning nothing to check for trustedness
-- results in the routine reporting that the item is trusted. If it was
possible that no index files would be available, I would expect this to
return "false", unless I completely misunderstand what's going on.
Thanks,
Daniel
