Title:
[FFe] upgrade libzip to version 1.5.0
Status in libzip package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in libzip package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
Feature Freeze Justification
============================
This release fixes to two CVE's and most notably has removed its custom AES
crypto implementation with using openssl libraries. It is for the security
reasons I am requesting this FFe this late in the cycle.
Other Changes:
- A bunch of bug fixes
- A number of new features like bzip2 (this optional and could be disabled
for 18.04), improved AES encryption support, some of the new features are other
platforms only
- Breaks API (only 1 symbol was removed though), soname bump, so will require
a mini transition, all the 24 reverse-depends that I count are in universe.
Some are seeded in flavours (see below)
- Build system switched to Cmake in latest release
- Ark will build with libzip support where it didnt before
Testing:
It has a fairly comprehensive test suite, but I did have to disable for now,
a few problematic tests that fail in the launchpad buildd chroots, but not
elsewhere like local machine or Debian schroot.
I have run a test rebuild for all the rdepends in ppa:darkxst/libzip.
All built successfully, except for 2 packages, cbmc and plume-creater
that had unrelated fallout due to gcc7 and other packaging changes.
Other Notes:
- There are a bunch of presumably private symbols leaked into the debian
symbols file. Not ideal, but probably not the only package in the archive like
that.
- I will follow up with upstream issues for the RPATH stuff, tests and
symbols later
- I will also push for the update into Debian
