437 comparison purposes
438 * Make a number of Release file errors into warnings; for now, it is OK
439 not to have a codename, for example. We mostly care about checksums

454 requiring that sources be configured as secure
455 - Print a hint about installing gnupg if exec(gpgv) fails
456 - Remove obsolete pkgAcqIndexRel
457 - Move vendors.list stuff into a separate module (vendorlist.{h,cc})
458 - If any files about to be retrieved are not authenticated, issue a
459 warning to the user and require confirmation
460 - Fix a heap corruption bug in pkgSrcRecords::pkgSrcRecords()
461 * Suggests: gnupg
462 * Install a keyring in /usr/share/apt/debian-archive.gpg containing an

871 or-expression is not available
872 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output

874 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
875 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
876 build-dependency
877 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
878 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
879 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
880 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,
881 unfortunately).
