All autopkgtests for the newly accepted apt (1.6.14) for bionic have finished running. The following regressions have been reported in tests triggered by the package:

For xenial, we backport the JSON hook support in its entirety, whereas for later releases, we only need to cherry-pick bugfixes and the v0.2 improvements. [Test plan] We have included unit and integration tests for the new JSON code to test the writer and prevent regressions in future changes. Regressions in other parts of the code should be caught by the test suite. [Where problems could occur] There may be bugs in the JSON code (apt-private/private-json-hooks.*) and in the integration thereof. The JSON hook code is identical to 2.3.2, whereas the integration code needed slight adjustments. The integration changes are limited to adding the hooks, and (for xenial, already in later releases) collecting all unknown package names. We believe the regression potential of these changes to be fairly limited. However, errors in JSON hooks are fatal, so once JSON hooks are running, they can cause apt to fail, which has to be kept in mind. Existing JSON hooks might not expect the new notifications, and break, but we are only aware of the snapd hook and it ignores any unknown notifications, so that should not pose a problem.
