1 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
4 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
5 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
6 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
7 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
8 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
9 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
10 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
11 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
12 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
13 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
14 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
15 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
16 written by a single write(2)
17 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
18 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
19 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
20 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
22 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
23 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
24 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
26 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
27 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
28 installed (Closes: #200395)
29 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
30 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
31 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
32 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
33 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
34 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
36 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
38 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
39 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
41 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
42 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
43 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
44 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
46 - echo 3 > debian/compat
47 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
48 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
49 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
50 password (Closes: #199425)
51 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
52 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
53 with our SGML man pages

57 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
59 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
60 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
61 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
62 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
63 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
65 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler
66 <philippe.batailler@free.fr> (Closes: #182194)
67 * Give a warning if an illegal type abbreviation is used when looking up a
68 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
69 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
70 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
71 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
72 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
73 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1
74 * Tweak SGML in apt-extracttemplates.1.sgml so that literal '>' doesn't end

77 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
78 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
79 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
81 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
82 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
83 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)

87 apt (0.5.7) unstable; urgency=low
89 * Update control file to match overrides (apt priority important,
90 libapt-pkg-dev section libdevel)
91 * Silence the essential packages check if we are only downloading
92 archives and not changing the system (Closes: #190862)
93 * Skip version check if a build-dependency is provided by an installed package
95 * Have apt-cache show exit with an error if it cannot find any of the
96 specified packages (Closes: #101490)
