There seem to be a bug in how GitHub generates archives.
"Format:" and "$" characters get removed from the version string,
setting it to:
version = "%(describe:tags=true)"
Current OBS is delivering hdrmd5 in buildinfo. It turns out
that osc has already code for validating cached files, but it
invalidates all local files atm with python 3.x
Using os.getcwd() in combination with a subsequent .encode() is error
prone:
marcus@linux:~> mkdir illegal_utf-8_encoding_$'\xff'_dir
marcus@linux:~> cd illegal_utf-8_encoding_$'\xff'_dir/
marcus@linux:~/illegal_utf-8_encoding_ÿ_dir> python3

>>> import os
>>> os.getcwd().encode()
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hence, use os.getcwdb(), which returns a bytes, instead of
os.getcwd().encode().
Fixes: commit 36f7b8ffe9 ("Fix a
potential TypeError in CpioRead.copyin and CpioRead.copyin_file")
If no dir is passed to util.ArFile.saveTo, dir is set to os.getcwd(),
which returns a str. Since self.name is a bytes, the subsequent
os.path.join(dir, self.name) results in a TypeError.
To fix this, use os.getcwdb(), which returns a bytes instead of a
str.
If no "dest" argument is specified when calling CpioRead.copyin or
CpioRead.copyin_file, a TypeError occurs in CpioRead._copyin_file
because os.getcwd(), which returns a str, is used as dest and, hence,
the subsequent os.path.join(...) fails (because it tries to join a
str and a bytes).
In order to avoid this, encode the result of os.getcwd().
Note that the existing
archive.copyin_file(hdr.filename,
os.path.dirname(tmpfile),
os.path.basename(tmpfile))
was OK because CpioRead._copyin_file os.path.join()s "dest" and
"new_fn", which are both str. It is just changed to stress that
CpioRead is a bytes-only API.
Fixes: #865 ("Traceback in osc/util/cpio.py line 128: TypeError:
Can't mix strings and bytes in path components")
In commit 276d6e2439 ("Do not use the
chardet module in util.helper.decode_it") util.helper.decode_it was
changed to always decode the passed object if it has a decode method.
Since a python2 str has a decode method, the new code tries to utf-8
decode the passed str. As a result, a unicode object is returned (if
the decoding worked). Since a unicode object is not an instance of
type str, all subsequent isinstance(decoded_obj, str) checks evaluate
to False, which break some codepaths.
In order to fix this, restore the old python2 behavior (that is, if
the passed object is a str, it is not decode it). This change does not
affect the python3 codepaths.
Fixes: #814 ("osc log | fails")
In general, decode_it is used to get a str from an arbitrary bytes
instance. For this, decode_it used the chardet module (if present)
to detect the underlying encoding (if the bytes instance corresponds
to a "supported" encoding). The drawback of this detection is that
it can take quite some time in case of a large bytes instance, which
represents no "supported" encoding (see #669 and #746).
Instead of doing a potentially "time consuming" detection, either
assume an utf-8 encoding or a latin-1 encoding. Rationale: it is just
not worth the effort to detect a _potential_ encoding because we have
no clue what the _correct_ encoding is. For instance, consider the
following bytes instance:
b'This character group is not supported: [abc\xc3\xbf]'
It represents a valid utf-8 and latin-1 encoding. What is the "correct"
one? We don't know... Even if you interpret the bytes instance as a
human you cannot give a definite answer (implicit assumption: there is
no additional context available).
That is, if we cannot give a definite answer in case of two potential
encodings, there is no point in bringing even more potential encodings
into play. Hence, do not use the chardet module.
Note: the rationale for trying utf-8 first is that utf-8 is pretty
much in vogue these days and, hence, the chances are "high" that we
guess the "correct" encoding.

Fixes: #746 ("Very slow local buildlog parsing")
Importing `cElementTree` has been deprecated since Python 3.3 -
importing `ElementTree` automatically uses the fastest
implementation available - and is finally removed in Python 3.9.
Importing cElementTree directly (not as part of xml) is an even
older relic, it's for Ye Time Before ElementTree Was Added To
Python and it was instead an external module...which was before
Python 2.5.
We still need to work with Python 2.7 for now, so we use a try/
except to handle both 2.7 and 3.9 cases. Also, let's not repeat
this import 12 times in one file for some reason.

The repodata.RepoDataQueryResult is supposed to be a bytes API and
that's what our users (see build module) expect.
Note that the repodata.RepoDataQueryResult.path method still returns
a str. That's what the rpmquery.RpmQuery, debquery.DebQuery, and
archquery.ArchQuery classes also do (if the "path" was initially
passed as a str).
Fixes: #760 ("osc build fails when called with --prefer-pkgs where the
passed directory is a repodata repository or a subdirectory of one")
