to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in

  Backport never pinning and Packages-Require-Authorization

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  These are not driven from a direct user experience, but are related to other 
developments:

  (1) unattended-upgrades could use the never pinning to disable
  repositories rather than switching candidates. That would simplify
  code quite a bit.

  (2) Packages-Require-Authorization lets a repository declare that
  downloading packages from it requires authorization. This is useful
  both for private repositories, as it can prevent unattended-upgrades
  failures if you remove authorization info; and it also allows creating
  a new form of semi-private repository, where only pool/ requires
  authorization.

  [Test case]
  Tests are included in autopkgtests and cover the common scenarios
  
https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/blob/master/test/integration/test-packages-require-authorization:
  (1) Add repository with Packages-Require-Authorization and no auth.conf 
entry: pin -32768
  (2) Add repository with Packages-Require-Authorization and a auth.conf entry: 
pin 500
  (3) As (2), but a custom pin still applies

  
https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/blob/master/test/integration/test-policy-pinning#L365
  (1) Test that Pin-Priority: never overrides both per-package pins and 
per-repository pins
  (2) Test that Pin-Priority: never is only applied for per-repository 
(Package: *) pins

  [Regression potential]
  The changes might introduce regressions in pinning. The pinning 
implementation in trusty is substantially different from the other releases, 
and should thus require more testing.
