Package: apt
Version: 0.7.23.1
Severity: important
Now that apt stores information about automatic installation status of
packages in its own file in /var/lib/apt/extended_states, backups should
be taken of this file the same as is done for /var/lib/dpkg/status and
/var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates.
Strangely, /etc/cron.daily/apt does backups of /var/cache/apt and *not*
of /var/lib/apt, even though all information in /var/cache is supposed to
be recoverable if deleted!

[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.cc:
- fix error checking for vsnprintf in its safe variant
* methods/bzip2.cc:
- fix error checking for read in case of failing bzip2/lzma/whatever
* debian/apt.cron.daily:
- create backups for our extended_states file (Closes: #593430)
* apt-pkg/init.cc:
- set the default values for dir::etc::trusted options correctly
* ftparchive/writer.cc:
- init valid-until correctly to prevent garbage entering Release file
* apt-pkg/deb/debsystem.cc:
- set dir::state::status based at least on dir
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- use the InstVer instead of the CurrentVer for the autobit transfer
* methods/http.cc:
- some http servers violate HTTP1.1 by not issuing a Reason-Phrase
(or at least a space after the code) especially for 200, but lets
be nice and ignore it as we don't need the reason in general
* apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
- don't use ReadOnlyGzip mode for PDiffs as this mode doesn't work
in combination with the AddFd methods of our hashclasses
