Package: fai-server
Version: 2.10.2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
After installtion of a client fai leaves the files 10fai and 90fai in
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/.
The first file disables checking of trust violations and unauthenticated
packages. After a system is installed this could be required.
The second file has as effect that when removing a package, it's also
purged. Also it assumes yes to all answers.
itext:/etc/apt/apt.conf.d# cat 10fai
APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated "true";
Aptitude::CmdLine::Ignore-Trust-Violations yes;
itext:/etc/apt/apt.conf.d# cat 90fai
// This file is used in the chroot environment from install_packages
// (called by rcS_fai)
// Options for apt-get for FAI
APT
{
// Options for apt-get
Get
{
Assume-Yes "true";
Fix-Missing "true";
Show-Upgraded "true";
Purge "true"; // really purge! Also removes config
files
List-Cleanup "true";
ReInstall "false";
AllowUnauthenticated "true";
};
};
Aptitude::Cmdline::Ignore-Trust-Violations yes;
DPkg
{
Options {
"--abort-after=4711"; // a magic number in cologne ;-)
"--force-confdef";
}
};
The second file breaks the normal workings of package upgrading and
installing. This can have severe consequences on an installed system.
