579 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
580 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
581 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
582 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
583 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

587 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
588 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

604 fragments are properly substituted

611 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and

621 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
