   2
   3   * apt-get install pkg/experimental will now not only switch the
   4     candidate of package pkg to the version from the release experimental
   5     but also of all dependencies of pkg if the current candidate can't
   6     satisfy a versioned dependency.

  19   * Already included in the last version but now with better documentation
  20     is the possibility to add/prefer different compression types while
  21     downloading archive information, which can decrease the time needed for
  22     update on slow machines. See apt.conf (5) manpage for details.
  23   * APT manages his manpage translations now with po4a, thanks to Nicolas
  24     François and Kurasawa Nozomu, who also provide the ja translation.
  25     Thanks to Christian Perrier we have already a fr translation and
  26     a few more are hopefully added in the near future.
  27   * This version also introduces some _experimental_ configuration options
  28     to make more aggressive use of dpkg's triggers. If you want to help
  29     testing these _experimental_ options see apt.conf (5) manpage.

  34
  35   * Code that determines which proxy to use was changed. Now
  36     'Acquire::{http,ftp}::Proxy[::<host>]' options have the highest priority,
  37     and '{http,ftp}_proxy' environment variables are used only if options
  38     mentioned above are not specified.

  42 apt (0.6.44) unstable; urgency=low
  43
  44   * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB_BTREE instead of DB_HASH.
  45     If you use a database created by an older version of apt, delete
  46     it and allow it to be recreated the next time.

  50 apt (0.5.25) unstable; urgency=low
  51
  52   * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB version 4.2.  If used with a
  53     database created by an older version of apt, an attempt will be made
  54     to upgrade the database, but this may not work in all cases.  If your
  55     database is not automatically upgraded, delete it and allow it to be
  56     recreated the next time.
