179 * Implement an ugly workaround for the 10000-character limit on the
180 Binaries field in debSrcRecordParser, until such time as some things
181 can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)

196 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
197 being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)
198 * Add an assert() to make sure that we don't overflow a fixed-size
199 buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging
200 systems to apt (Closes: #233678)
201 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which

207 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
208 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
209 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
210 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
211 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)
212 * Don't translate "Yes, do as I say!" in Chinese locales, because it can

244 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after

246 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke

331 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus

348
349 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
350 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
351 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.

408 apt (0.5.10) unstable; urgency=low
409
410 * Correct the section in apt_preferences(5) on interpreting priorities
411 to show that zero is not a valid priority, and print a warning if such
412 a pin is encountered in the preferences file (Closes: #204971)
413 * Regenerate French man pages from sgml source (Closes: #205886)
414 * Get self-tests compiling again, updated for latest library API
415 and g++ 3.3
416 * Add version comparison tests for #194327 and #205960
417 * Fix error message in version test to output versions in the order in
418 which they were compared when the reverse comparison fails
419 * Reference the source package bug page rather than the one for the
420 binary package 'apt' in the man pages (Closes: #205290)
421 * Updated Polish po file from Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>
422 (Closes: #205950)
423 * Mention some of the available frontends in apt-get(8) (Closes: #205829)
424 * Add apt-config to SEE ALSO section of apt-get (Closes: #205036)
425 * Add missing "lang" attributes to refentry tags in French man pages
426 (apt-cdrom, apt-extracttemplates, apt-sortpkgs)
427 * Change upgraded/newly installed/not fully installed or removed
428 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
429 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)
430 * Make APT::Get::Show-Upgraded (aka apt-get -u) default to true.
431 * Updates to Dutch translation from Bart Cornelis <cobaco@linux.be>

436 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
437
438 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
439 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
440 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
441 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
442 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
443 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
444 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
445 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
446 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
447 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
448 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
449 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
450 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
451 written by a single write(2)
452 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
453 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
454 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
455 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
456 (Closes: #200425)
457 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
458 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
459 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
460 (Closes: #200102)
461 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
462 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
463 installed (Closes: #200395)
464 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
465 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
466 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
467 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
468 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
469 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
470 (Closes: #194614)
471 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
472 (Closes: #146667)
473 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
474 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
475 (Closes: #194282)
476 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
477 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
478 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
479 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
480 will add them
481 - echo 3 > debian/compat
482 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
483 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
484 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
485 password (Closes: #199425)
486 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
487 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
488 with our SGML man pages
489 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
490 fragments are properly substituted

494 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
495
496 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
497 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
498 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
499 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
500 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
501 (Closes: #177258)
502 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler
503 <philippe.batailler@free.fr> (Closes: #182194)
504 * Give a warning if an illegal type abbreviation is used when looking up a
505 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
506 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
507 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
508 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
509 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
510 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1
511 * Tweak SGML in apt-extracttemplates.1.sgml so that literal '>' doesn't end
512 up in output
513 * Document SrcDirectory in apt-ftparchive.1.sgml (Closes: #156370)
514 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
515 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
516 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
517 to have this problem
518 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
519 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
520 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
