Description Philipp Hahn univentionstaff 2017-12-22 15:18:01 CET
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #45896 comment 3 +++
There is a bug is in python-apt, where updating the APT cache using only a CD-ROM returns a fatal error, even when the CDROM should be trusted:

$ python
>>> from apt import Cache
>>> cache = Cache()
>>> cache.update()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 464, in update
    raise FetchFailedException(e)
apt.cache.FetchFailedException: E:The repository 'cdrom://[UCS Linux 4.3 GNU/Linux 4.3-0 _Ucs430_ -
Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20171219-16:32] ucs430 Release' does not have a Release file.
>>> from apt import apt_pkg
>>> print(apt_pkg.config.get('APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM'))
'true'

I have started debugging this, but so far failed to find the cause.

r17892
debian-installer/4.3-0-0-ucs/20170615+deb9u2/0010-local-univention-sources.patch
is also a workaround for that.

Note: I think due to this workaround, setting the repository for 4.3 dvd builds has currently no effect.
Comment 3 Richard Ulmer univentionstaff 2018-03-23 14:04:09 CET
Due to recent changes in apt-secure the template for the UCRV update/secure_apt has become outdated. Thus the old way, of allowing for insecure repositories, failed here.

"man apt-secure" in Debian Stretch [1] suggests using different configuration options. I have committed an updated version of the UCRV-template.

This breaks installing Apps from the Test App Center.

Please include

APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated "true";

I have added APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated to the configuration, again.
