"Our hard-coded image size meta-data (1000) is for some interpreted as less
than the size of the box-image by my kvm setup. This makes grub/initrd
refuse to boot. So I've changed the metadata size to 9999 which resulted in
an actually booting vm. I can log in on the builder-vm via virt-manager
and virsh.
`vagrant package` does not work with KVM, so we have to hack together our
own until someone implements it (suppose we should do it). This is a hacked
up version based on:
d7d440ea8f/tools/create_box.sh#238
This prevents v.destroy() from running if Vagrantfile.yaml does not exist,
since that is required for vagrant to run: is the core config including the
name of the box, etc. Otherwise, it would exit with an error.
This also does complete cleanup when using libvirt.
For people using slow, expensive, and/or flaky internet, liberal use of
caching can make a huge difference. The restricted environment of the
gpjenkins box has been a good test environment for this (Tor-only,
whitelist of allowed IPs to visit, home internet connection).
By running the whole program in a main() function, it can be wrapped in
try/finally in order to stop the background display thread. This is also
done in ./fdroid, its standard practice for Python CLI utilities.
I ran into some annoying issues with UTF-8 output in the vagrant logs, and
it was hard to solve. So I switched to using python-vagrant, which handles
it all for us. Its been around since 2012, has a number of contributors,
and is still actively maintained, so it seems like a good bet. I also
packaged it for Debian, including a backport in jessie-backports.
On Debian/jessie, do `apt-get install python3-vagrant/jessie-backports`
It seems that gitlab gives 500 errors a bit too frequently, so keep
retrying the `git pull` until it works so that there isn't a error email
sent out over failed pulls.
This is some very messy logic built up since 2010. This will all go away
once we have a python3 version of androguard available.
The removed imports and `dir(APK)` is to silence pyflakes

_ is a valid character for Java package names, so it should also work in
the repo file naming scheme. This makes it so it only splits the file
name based on the last _.
cgi.escape is deprecated in Python 3.x and has security issues:
https://bugs.python.org/issue26398
html.escape() differs from cgi.escape() by its defaults to quote=True:
s = html.escape( """& < " ' >""" ) # s = '& < " ' >'
This replaces the broken, custom code with the standard YAML lib.
In rewritemeta, do not call app.metadatapath since it will be deleted when
the dict is cleaned up for outputing. metadatapath is only used internally
and should not be written out.
