13 * Add knetbsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #212344)

22 * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
24 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
25 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
26 - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
27 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
28 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
29 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
30 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
32 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
33 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
34 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche

36 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
37 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
38 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
39 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
40 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
42 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
44 - Document --installed
45 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
46 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>

49 * Clean up and simplify some of the suggests/recommends display in apt-get
50 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
51 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt

56 apt (0.5.14) unstable; urgency=low
58 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
59 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
60 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
61 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
62 or-expression is not available
63 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
64 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
65 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
66 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
68 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
69 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
70 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
71 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,

80 * s/removed/installed/ in a comment in apt-get.cc
81 * Move comment for ListParser::ParseDepends into the right place
82 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
83 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
84 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
85 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
86 rather they always match what is in CVS.

101 * In apt.conf(5), give the fully qualified name of Dir::Bin::Methods,
102 rather than just "methods"
103 * Add new nb and nn translations from Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>
104 * Clean up reportbug script a bit, and extend it to distinguish between a
105 configuration file not existing and the user declining to submit it with
107 * Add #include <langinfo.h> to cmdline/apt-get.cc. This apparently gets
108 pulled in by something else with recent g++ and/or glibc, but is
109 required when building on, e.g., stable

111 comparisons with '~' (Closes: #205960)

120 to show that zero is not a valid priority, and print a warning if such

122 * Regenerate French man pages from sgml source (Closes: #205886)
123 * Get self-tests compiling again, updated for latest library API
125 * Add version comparison tests for #194327 and #205960
126 * Fix error message in version test to output versions in the order in
127 which they were compared when the reverse comparison fails
128 * Reference the source package bug page rather than the one for the
129 binary package 'apt' in the man pages (Closes: #205290)
130 * Updated Polish po file from Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>
132 * Mention some of the available frontends in apt-get(8) (Closes: #205829)
133 * Add apt-config to SEE ALSO section of apt-get (Closes: #205036)
134 * Add missing "lang" attributes to refentry tags in French man pages
135 (apt-cdrom, apt-extracttemplates, apt-sortpkgs)
136 * Change upgraded/newly installed/not fully installed or removed
137 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
138 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)
139 * Make APT::Get::Show-Upgraded (aka apt-get -u) default to true.

145 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
147 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
148 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
149 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
150 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
151 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
152 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
153 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
154 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
155 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
156 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
157 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
158 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
159 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
160 written by a single write(2)
161 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
162 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
163 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
164 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
166 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
167 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
168 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

171 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already

174 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
175 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
176 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
177 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
178 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
180 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
182 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
183 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
185 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
186 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
187 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
188 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
190 - echo 3 > debian/compat
191 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)

193 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
194 password (Closes: #199425)
195 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
196 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
197 with our SGML man pages
198 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
199 fragments are properly substituted

205 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
206 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
207 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
208 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
209 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
211 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler

213 * Give a warning if an illegal type abbreviation is used when looking up a
214 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
215 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
216 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
217 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
218 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

224 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
225 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
227 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
228 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
229 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
