3 * apt-get install pkg/experimental will now not only switch the
4 candidate of package pkg to the version from the release experimental
5 but also of all dependencies of pkg if the current candidate can't
6 satisfy a versioned dependency.

17 apt (0.7.24) unstable; urgency=low
18
19 * Already included in the last version but now with better documentation
20 is the possibility to add/prefer different compression types while
21 downloading archive information, which can decrease the time needed for
22 update on slow machines. See apt.conf (5) manpage for details.
23 * APT manages his manpage translations now with po4a, thanks to Nicolas
24 François and Kurasawa Nozomu, who also provide the ja translation.
25 Thanks to Christian Perrier we have already a fr translation and
26 a few more are hopefully added in the near future.
27 * This version also introduces some _experimental_ configuration options
28 to make more aggressive use of dpkg's triggers. If you want to help
29 testing these _experimental_ options see apt.conf (5) manpage.

35 * Code that determines which proxy to use was changed. Now
36 'Acquire::{http,ftp}::Proxy[::<host>]' options have the highest priority,
37 and '{http,ftp}_proxy' environment variables are used only if options
38 mentioned above are not specified.

42 apt (0.6.44) unstable; urgency=low
43
44 * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB_BTREE instead of DB_HASH.
45 If you use a database created by an older version of apt, delete
46 it and allow it to be recreated the next time.

50 apt (0.5.25) unstable; urgency=low
51
52 * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB version 4.2. If used with a
53 database created by an older version of apt, an attempt will be made
54 to upgrade the database, but this may not work in all cases. If your
55 database is not automatically upgraded, delete it and allow it to be
56 recreated the next time.
