Allow installation of PPA repositories on non-Ubuntu Debian derived
distribution targets (e.g. neon, Mint, Debian itself) by removing the
specific check for UbuntuDistribution before allowing PPA: format
sources. This fixes the addition of PPA repositories under KDE neon (as
the codenames match the base Ubuntu distribution).
To make the functionality also useful under Mint and Debian which have
different codenames to their Ubuntu upstream / downstream releases, add
a 'codename' option to override the default used in the PPA source
entry.
- Use range instead of xrange.
- Use python3-apt package for python 3.
- Eliminate unsupported for/else/raise usage.
- Use list on dict.items when modifying dict.
- Update requirements documentation.
Also made non-intrustive style fixes (adding blank lines).
Change the file mode arg to 'raw' ala file args
Following the file_common_args model, change the
type of the 'mode' arg here to type='raw' with no
default arg value.
The default mode for file creation is the module
constant DEFAULT_SOURCES_PER, and is used if no
mode os specified.
A default mode of 0644 (and not specified as int or str)
would get converted to an octal 420, resulting in the
sources file being created with mode '0420' instead of '0644'
Fixes#16370
The returned list of diffs aims to simulate how a file system diff would
look before and after writing the sources list files.
n.b. Ternary conditional is due to failing integration test for
python 2.4
Since use_unsafe_shell is suspicious from a security point
of view (or it wouldn't be unsafe), the less we have, the less
code we have to toroughly inspect for a security audit.
In this case, the '&&' can be replaced by doing 2 calls to run_command.
This was originally required to allow other methods in SourcesList to
fail, but subsequent changes rendered that unnecessary, and it's just
a cleanup now, and avoids passing in module separately to save().
1. Don't test check_mode in both the caller and in the callee.
2. Don't test HAVE_PYTHON_APT inside an if that tests HAVE_PYTHON_APT
3. Don't be irritatingly vague about why the module fails ("You may be
seeing this because…").
Note that if «apt-get -y install python-apt» succeeds with rc==0, but
for some reason python_apt is not usable afterwards, this will break
because the imports in install_python_apt aren't wrapped inside a
try/except.
In other words, we assume that install_python_apt either succeeds or
fails with a traceback. This commit doesn't affect that behaviour.
The original problem is: apt_repository.py connect to launchpad on
every playbook run. In this patch apt_repository.py checks if required
repository already exists or not. If no - paa will be added, if yes -
just skip actions.
