22 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
23 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined

25 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

103 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche

106 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
107 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
108 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
109 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
111 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)

152 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
153 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)

207 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)

223 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
224 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
225 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
226 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

233 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')

245 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
246 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
247 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

252 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

255 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT

263 password (Closes: #199425)
