28 * Cosmetic updates to XML man pages from Richard Bos <radoeka@xs4all.nl>
29 * Use the 'binary' target rather than 'all' so that the ssh and bzip2

32 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
33 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
34 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files

43 available (Closes: #233681)
44 * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
45 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
46 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
47 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
48 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
49 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)

80 apt (0.5.21) unstable; urgency=low
82 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
83 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
84 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
85 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

267 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)

282 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
283 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
284 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
285 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
286 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

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

311 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
312 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
314 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
315 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
316 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
317 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs

322 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
323 password (Closes: #199425)

325 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
326 with our SGML man pages

335 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
336 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's

344 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
345 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
346 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
